Nigeria,a Beloved Nation

I must be a patriot
Before i can eat the fruits of my land
I speak of you with awe, my beloved land
The country awash with resources
Country with a lot of tarragons;
The secret of our good health is this.
Foreigners are even awestruck by your resources
Foreigners who arrived
With zilch are now millionaires
A country with zillions progress
The baba of Africa countries.
You are zinged by your sons and daughters
They never knew the two problems
You are struggling with.You're cute
But they knew not.
Our leaders are Babbitts
Some citizens are wastrels
And they become hoodoos.
I have no bad words
Against thee,the greatest
That is the secret of our achievers
Our problems, for a while,with this
my words like a clear tarot.
You are scrumptious than every meals
That makes me to lie on your bristols
That gives us milk always
We sing and it avails for us

There have been questions about “Yoruba name for igun”; “… hoopo bird called in Yoruba”; “… aluko and agbe birds in Yoruba culture”; “the English name of eye akalamagbo”; “What is the English of eye kowe”, and many others. At the end of the list, there are a couple of references, and more can be found through Google. PLEASE NOTE: Spellings often dif...
