Nigeria the Strife filled Land

Nigeria, Oh Nigeria, our dear land
So much pain and sadness, we can't withstand
Election fraud and hunger reign supreme
Petrol prices soar, crushing dreams

Our schools lack decent facilities
And care for the elderly is pitiful
No power, no good roads, no clean water
Our leaders fail us, like lambs to the slaughter

Citizens are killed without repercussion
No justice, no peace, no resolution
Workers struggle with low pay and strife
Our spiritual guides fail to guide our life

Nigeria, Oh Nigeria, we cry out in pain
Will things ever change, or is it all in vain?
Our nation's heart beats with a sad tune
But we'll keep fighting, until we see the moon.
