Nigeria my pride
It is far from error
If we say this is our home
That her blood flows in our veins
And we believe in her
Though its been of straws and clays
We can die for her
Corruptions might have eaten her foundations
Pride we - in being her offspring
She rescued us from homelessness
Our heritage her gift be
On her tongue we learnt speeches
And her fabrics our nakedness covered
Her fruit nourishes our bowel
With her water thirst doth quench
They call her Nigeria
We hail her motherland
