"Nigeria"

“NIGERIA”
(A song dedicated to the people of Nigeria)
(By: Ross M. Angeles)

 
Nigeria
 I will keep coming back to you Nigeria
Simply no place in the world
 Like Nigeria
Nigeria, you made me feel at home


I roamed the streets of Surulere
I tried the ride in Okada
Danced the night away in Apapa
Nigeria, you made me feel at home.


Nigeria
 I will keep coming back to you Nigeria
Simply the friendliest people
Are in Nigeria
Nigeria, you made me feel at home

 
Oh! Lagos, so noisy and so crowded
Swarmed with sea
 Of people walking
Arguments in Nigeria
Are like non-stop rock music
Nigeria, you made me feel at home

 

Nigeria
 I will keep coming back to you Nigeria
Simply the happiest people
Are in Nigeria
Nigeria, you made me feel at home

 

Nigeria
 I will keep coming back to you Nigeria
Your smiles and laughter
Are the best Nigeria
Nigeria, you made me feel at home

 

Nigeria
 You treated me
Like your own Nigeria
Nigeria, I am coming home
Nigeria, you are my home
Nigeria, I am your own
Nigeria, I am coming home

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
