Lyrics
[Verse]
Driving through Lagos, vibes so alive,
Catch the sunset at Tarkwa Bay, feeling so high. (AAH - Awọn Otitọ Oogun ?)
Next stop Ibadan, where the music jams and flows.
Jamming at Felabration, where the rhythm grows and flows.
Moving up to Oyo, ancient walls speak loud,
At Alaafin's Palace, history stands proud.
From there to Ilorin, a village so serene,
Explore Esie Museum, where history and mystery will convene.
[Chorus in Yoruba]
Omo Naijiria, ò ní bèè niyan,
Ẹ má jẹ́ kí a lọ sí ní ajíkẹlé.
[Verse]
Heading to Kaduna, the heart of the north, (Afang soup)
Visit Lord Lugard's Residence, intrigue may set forth.
Then to Zaria, where learning's at its best (so are the women)
Ahmadu Bello University, a place to rest.
Down to Kano, the city of commerce grand,
See the Dala Hill, where history stands.
And then to Jos, where the climate's cool, (ụmụ nwanyị, ụmụ nwanyị)
Chill at Solomon Lar Amusement Park, keeping it fun (for all ages) .
[Chorus in Hausa]
Yan Nijeriya, kuna da damu,
Muna rokon ku zo a kwana.
[Verse]
Enugu beckons, the coal city calls,
Stroll through Awhum Waterfall, where nature enthralls.
Next, Port Harcourt, where oil flows bright (so does Burukutu)
Relax at Isaac Boro Park, under the city's light
Down to Calabar, where the rivers meet the sea, (Efo riro riro)
Enjoy the Carnival Calabar, where joy runs free (so does the Pito !)
Cross over to Uyo, in the land of promise
Catch a match at Nest of Champions, where football enthusiasts cheer and drink Ogogoro.
[Chorus in Igbo]
Ndị Nigeria, nke na-edu na mmadụ,
Ọ bụrụ na anyị na-agbanwe anya.
[Verse]
From Warri to Benin, Asaba to Owerri,
Naija's got the groove, from the west to the east (where's some Awọn Otitọ Oogun ?)
No matter where you go, from north to the south,
One nation under the sun, we are living out loud.
(Chorus in Fula)
Jamhuuriya Nijeriya, booya ngalku ko,
Mey kuy suli a fahó.
[Outro]
So let's keep driving 'round Nigeria, from city to town,
Discovering our roots, in this land so renowned (share some Awọn Otitọ Oogun)
From Lagos to Maiduguri, our hearts beat as one,
In this journey of a lifetime, under Nigeria's sun.
