In the land where golden sunsets gleam,
Where dreams are born, a nation's vibrant theme,
I weave a tapestry of hopes unseen,
With beats of my Nigerian dream.
Beneath the African sky, a tale unfolds,
Of resilience, strength, and stories untold,
In rhythmic harmony, our spirits rise,
Unity's anthem, echoing the skies.
From the Niger's banks to Saharan dunes,
Where diverse cultures meet and commune,
I find my voice in the vibrant streets,
Where passion and dreams in harmony meet.
In Lagos' bustling and vibrant embrace,
Entrepreneurial spirit finds its place,
The city's rhythm pulses through my veins,
Igniting ambition's everlasting flames.
In the ancient city of Benin's lore,
Where history breathes and artistry soars,
I glimpse the past, a tapestry of kings,
Nurturing dreams, where heritage sings.
In Kano's tapestry of vibrant hues,
Trade and tradition, a timeless muse,
Silk and spices, woven threads of time,
A legacy of craft, a rhythm sublime.
From the oil-rich deltas of the south,
To the savannah's vastness, an endless mouth,
Nature's bounty, a blessing profound,
Harvests of abundance, fertile ground.
Yet amid the beauty, challenges persist,
A longing for change, an insistent fist,
Corruption's grip, a battle we fight,
To shape our dream, to set things right.
But in the hearts of Nigerians, a fire burns,
A spirit unyielding, the passion returns,
We rise as one, united and strong,
Striving for justice, correcting the wrongs.
Through melodies of laughter and joyous sounds,
Through dance and celebration that knows no bounds,
I breathe in the essence of my Nigerian dream,
A symphony of hope, a radiant gleam.
For in this dream, I see a nation's might,
A future painted with colors so bright,
Where unity and progress pave the way,
Guiding us forward, day by day.
So let us dance to the rhythm that's true,
In the tapestry of dreams, me and you,
Together we'll build, a future so grand,
My Nigerian dream, hand in hand.
