I see the old Nigeria fading out
I see the giant of African collapsing in the shadow of its former self
I hear sounds of the oppressors from afar
I see the oppressed rising against the oppressors
I see intense demonstrations to fight the oppressors
I see the oppressors leaving in haste
Some are trapped in the web of the crisis
I see an ancient wall fallen apart
I see the strong tower of the oppressors breaking to pieces
I see a great slaughter
I see blood flowing, cities in ruins
People wailing in pains and agonies
Commotions everywhere
The wise could not think straight again
The powerful ones become powerless
I see a great movement for a new nation.
A strive for survival in the North, South, West and East
In all these tribulations and chaos
I see a NEW NIGERIA emerging
I feel a cool breeze just like a breaking of a new dawn
I see no more oppression
I see justice and equity prevailing
I see overwhelming joy everywhere
I see a NEW NIGERIA
This is a new dawn
A new beginning
Oh Lord make haste to bring it to pass
