Today I know if I am sure
Tomorrow is uncertain
It has been garments of dread everywhere
Upon men and women of the land
School children are not exempted
It was here peaceful
Roads were once safe to travel
Journey were once interesting
On the road, water and air, but
Today arduous and travails
Is the song of many who were caught in that terrain
There was a country
Were kedu, bawo and yaya
Sat on a table and cried for independence
Oh! Like we have lost our
Once found integration
Where is our peace, unity and oneness
Our fathers have lost their feathers; no one can teach us how to fly
I think they have also lost their mind
Truth is out of scene like darkness when light is shone
Civilians, corps members and even security agents are frightened
Just by the mention of names of places in our homeland
Is our country sick? Is there a cure? Who has it?
Our own is this and here I love this country together.
