Ranyinudo Leave Us In Peace

Please Leave us in peace
Among the tall trees
Leave us not in pieces
For the dirge is never near
For the morning await the arrival
Of the warlords, Ranyinudo Osinachi

There are many broken thoughts
Yet unfinished business but 
Leave us not in doubt and pains
Let the sun not antagonize 
Our humble soul in hell
Let the rain shower in our lives
Shower of blessing shall it be
When the flowers shall wave
To us in joy not in sorrow

Even though you must go
Leave us to fight and to love
For our cause not yours
Even though you must cry
Cry for joy and accomplishment
not for unfavourable land
I do not watch in watery eyes
But my i watch in great pain

Never wish in pain nor tears
understand the hand written on the wall 
All we need now is future which
bring respect to the home we emerged
I cry only for the bond between us
Which exit not in others
Ranyinudo, for mother is around your side
Cracking the air for the movement
of equal right we share not
