NIGERIA I HAIL!

“We are each of us angels with only one wing; andwe can only fly by embracing each other”

NIGERIA I  HAIL!

Nigeria! My beloved mother, I hail!

Bride my father Africa relishes like wine

Celestial prowess crated you a wonder

Adorned a masterpiece of opulence

Rare amongst his many brides he flaunts

With reckless lavish, your endowment charms a lot

Envied, yet celebrated like none other

Holding grounds, Africa’s heart rests your throne

Your offspring, a race branded, yet exceptional

An enigma, words stammer to describe

Yes! That is my mother Nigeria, the African Queen.

The super Eagle, so named is your fame

Robust with strength unmatched, just anywhere

Custodian of treasury’s, your ilk lack
