My Beloved Country

Nigeria, the country I love. the fertile continent The colossus of Africa I salute my lovely country We are abundantly gifted with natural resources From the north to the south, the east to the west Undoubtedly, we are fruitful The land of milk and honey, where I come from Enriched with lush greenery and the Savannah Humans are intended to consume the fruits of the soil. But the battle for survival continues. In the vast ocean of poverty My beloved nation, Nigeria, what a paradox The selected few from the crowd are there to waste our money and resources. We lament our suffering day and night. That's so tragic. After the lonely and dark night Another lovely dawn must follow every lovely morning We are evergreen, and there is always hope and wealth
