Nigeria, we hail thee,
Our own dear native land,
Though tribes and tongue may differ,
In brotherhood we stand,
Nigerians all are proud to serve,
Our sovereign motherland.
Our flag shall be a symbol,
That truth and justice reign,
In peace or battle honour'd,
And this we count as gain,
To hand unto our children,
A banner without stain.
O God of all creation,
Grant this our one request,
Help us to build a nation,
Where no man is oppressed,
And so with peace and plenty,
Nigeria may be blessed.
