CRY FOR A NEW NIGERIA


Arise Nigeria! For the time has come for slaves to override their masters. Portipher's wife has been defeated.

The cock's crow has called for a new beginning.
Of laughter,
Of joy,
Of unending celebration after the war.
Our sons and daughters are dancing to the music of nature;
They are rejoicing for the pride and dignity of the ones yet unborn.
For their masters have toiled with the womanhood of our helpless daughers and have butchered many of our helpless sons in the battle field.
The blood of our dead are crying out and our ancestors have finally heard our helpless lament.
We would match to the North, to the south, to the east and to west to cleanse the land.
    "Arise! For the time has come for slaves to override their masters!"
