Nkporo Will Never Fall Apart
Nporo empire will never fall apart.
The great buffalo will never be separated.
IT was through you bravery that you were named afted
BY the Akwa iboms, as the great buffaloes .
We will never let you down nor make you bereaved.
your name would be sung by your children in
Towns , villages, streams and in the market.
It would be written in our lips and in our
Right hands shall we uphold you day and night.
Nkopro Amaka, Nkporo di uto, forever we sing.
Eze aja may you reign forever.
Our Ikoro would sound for peace not in pieces.
The smoke shall rise up for joy not for evil.
Nkporo okwe ndi oma < kwe nu.
WE will always meet in peace and joy.
None of your offspring shall be useless,
None shall be barren nor stupid.
YOu have given us a fertile land ,
Handsome children and pretty women,
Why wont we adorn you with gold and silver?
We will never fail you mother Nkporo,
YOur four walls shall be strong fatherland.
