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.
