TOGETHER LIKE DIAMONDS

Arise Countrymen and stand up to hail,

The bond that keeps us;

For plunges and plots could not countervail,

The strength of this force.

Pure love lives on in the kinship we share,

The blood in our veins;

The anthem we sing and pledge we declare,

Do swallow our pains.

When Mother gave tongues she did with honour,

And also with pride;

For she gave them all and even one more,

To bridge the divide.

She gave unity to conduct this song,

Like an orchestra;

And taught us to live together as one,

Joyful Nigeria!
