We are a happy people
In chains and pain we hold our head high
Though scourge and squashed,
Yet we know no agony and feel no regret
As our hope keep us going
Our back baked and hand greased
With blisters on our palms and tears running down our eyes
Not even this, will kill our dreams
Of our precious paradise.
On this field, this virgin land
We shall reap the gains of our labour
As where we stand is;
Our private paradise.
We have tamed and fatten them
Not even the inferno hunger and betrayal
Can chase us out! of our paradise
NIGERIA!
The shackles shall one day be CAST,
And the chains BROKEN
Our sacrifices will declear US
VICTORS! at last!
As we shall shade no tear
But celebrate our long lasting MEMORIES.
