Thou Is My Fatherland

Let the feature fly
And the wings beat
Because this is Nigeria
Nigeria! Nigeria! So high
Nigeria! Nigeria! The dream of a future very bright
Nigeria! Nigeria! So fit
Nigeria! Your greatness you meet
Nigeria! Your greatness we see
And never again to split
Nigeria! Nigeria!! Nigeria!!!

Lives within its Power White Sage. Love of the fatherland, we all have this, that Love of the land of our birth. I am no exception to this rule. I Love nothing more than going up North and looking upon the mountains of Caledonia. I am Scottish by the by. Your honour and praise sing in each line. We are all proud of who we are....Vladislav.
