My Father Land

Nigeria is my fatherland

where heroes are breed

there i was born among soldiers

i schooled and married in my father 
land

 

my fatherland is the origin

of many great leaders

who never sleep while others slept

they walk in the air and, 

gravity pull them not

pretty women with unfaded skin, very 
industrious

are made there

all hail to our fatherland, Nigeria

 

my fatherland is the giant of Africa

it lay in the west coast of Africa

surrounded by green grasses and 
water

i am the first born of my fatherland

first a citizen of Nigeria

before other country

 

hard work is our legacy

service is our policy

 our hospitality  strangers admires

and faithfulness and honesty our aim

 

come home to fatherland brother

let us work together

to keep Nigeria Together

it pays to be together.
