SONNY OKOSUN: Which Way Nigeria

Which way Nigeria?

Which way to go?

I love my father land

o yeah I want to know

yes I want to know

I love my fatherland.

Which Nigeria is heading to

which way Nigeria?

which way to go

I love my fatherland

which way to go?

I want to know

which way Nigeria is heading to

many years after independence we still find it hard to start

how long shall we be patient still we reach the promise land

let’s save Nigeria so Nigeria won’t die!

 

PRINCE NICO MBARGA: Sweet Mother

sweet mother

Sweet mother, I no go forget you
For this suffer wey you suffer for me
Sweet mother, I no go forget you
For this suffer wey you suffer for me
 
When I dey cry, my mother go carry me,
She go say my pikin wetin you dey cry o yo
Stop stop, stop stop, stop stop make you no cry again
When I want sleep, my mother go pet me
She go lie me well well for bed
She cover me cloth, sing make you sleep
Sleep sleep my pikin oh
When I dey hungry, my mother go run up and down
She dey find me something wey I go tchop oh
 
Sweet mother, sweet mother oo
