Nigerian child The jewls of the nation The pride of Mother Africa How are their deeds in the mouth of other nations Weep no more! Weep no more because of trafficking! And all vices that affect you as a child cause it will come to an end if only we? We are the victims of juvenile delinqency, wars, crisis of all kind but have hope! Let's not bear the burdens any more Let's be treated like loved ones! Oh! Oh! Weep no more cause the time has come Let the society see us as "Instruments of Peace" Peace that brings good tidings Education is like a start Health like the space shuttle Environment, water are like the fountain of life We need them for life So treat us with love, kindness, respect, show concern and above all have faith in us. Listen to your child's voice We are the future generation Try and build us and give us good moral standards And Nigeria, the globe will be a better place for us (children) to stay « return. |
