It is still morning here in Nigeria Though the evening is fast approaching The child born without spoon is now eating with it She never saw her mother for protection and guidance It is still morning here in Nigeria The child understands many languages from birth Eats different dishes and simply loved by love Crying because she is not only poverty It is still morning here in Nigeria The voices of the good mothers is reaching the right ears A people left behind are coming out of the desert To behold a promise in the rivers of merriment It is still morning here in Nigeria The cock still crows at dawn repeatedly Reminding us across values that hurry is dangerous Step by step she proposed for climbing It is still morning here in Nigeria The military just left us to chair ourselves Our leadership is learning for history Life chapters unfold for their lessons and service is enthroned It is still morning here in Nigeria A reformer is better than a non-reformer Experience teach life is beautiful in Nigeria It require our opinion to become better It is still morning here in Nigeria Democracy is just eight years old and a baby Though the child has become the fool at over-forty Understanding and action hath created development It is still morning here in Nigeria Once a people saw unprecedented crisis and conflict Sustainable approaches married the day to a level A voice for the youth enthroned and we see a vision for the future It is still morning here in Nigeria Let the masses live is the morning prayers of the people It has a bright morning of would be better It’s afternoon and evening would be crowned best! « return. |
