Letter to my countrymen

Dear countrymen, let us fight the demon

That threatens our nation with its venom

By the flag pole of our country we stand

With our right hand on our hearts we demand

Dear Nigeria, we pledge you as our country

To be faithful, loyal and honest in our duty


To serve you with all our might and zeal

To defend your unity and uphold your ideal

So help us God, for we not only vow by word

But let it show in our deeds and in our sword

For Nigeria shall rise by the power of the two rivers

Niger and Benue, flowing with life-givers

By the power of our diversity we shall stand

250 tribes, 500 languages, a rich and vibrant land

By the power of our identity we shall soar

We shall rise and never fall again, evermore

-Abdul-Azeez Adeyinka-

The writer's prayer

In the quest of words that speaks

I wish for words to write

A sentence that entice

With wisdom at it peaks

I pray for my pen not to seize

And that my ink never dry

With my writings not fading

And my hand not trembling


In silence I whisper

And not again in my prayer

May my words be in harmony

And echoes beyond my colony

May my words be a mirror

That reflects the world we see

And fight for liberty and justice

Like that of a sword

May my ink be a glue

That brings together the broken

May my hand be a brush

And paints the colours of humanity

In silence I whisper

And not again in my prayer

May my writings be a blessing

That touches hearts everywhere

-Abdul-Azeez Adeyinka-

Blank

I want to write but my head looks plain

And my pen seems to fade

Perhaps I need to sit straight


So my efforts won’t be vain

-Abdul-Azeez Adeyinka-
