Arise, O compatriots,
(Our compatriots have been killed)
Nigeria's call obey
(I wonder who will)
To serve our Fatherland
(my fathers land has been shared by crooks)
With love and strength and faith.
(with lies, criminals and pains)
The labour of our heroes past
(sadly, we have no hero)
Shall never be in vain,
(all is in vain)
To serve with heart and might
(stealing with soul body n spirit)
One nation bound in freedom, peace and unity.
(nation bound in sorrows, sadness and problems)
