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

The World We Live In

The world in which we live is a world of many different expressions
There are two types of people in this world: kind and cruel
Few have experienced the pleasant side of the world,
but many have to deal with the terrible side

There are many complexities in the world
The world is constantly changing
The environment we live in undergoes rapid change
But, those who reside there are opposed to change

We live in a political riot world where our politicians don't see a future for the youth.
Our current world will come and vanish
Embrace the beautiful aspects of it
Everyone must deal with the unpleasant and unfair aspects of life
