Lirik resmi (dalam Bahasa Inggris)[sunting | sunting sumber]

Arise, O compatriots

Nigeria's call obey

To serve our fatherland

With love and strength and faith

The labour of our heroes past

Shall never be in vain

To serve with heart and might

One nation bound in freedom

Peace and unity.

Oh God of creation

Direct our noble cause

Guide our leaders right

Help our youth the truth to know

In love and honesty to grow

And living just and true

Great lofty heights attain

To build a nation where peace

And justice shall reign.

Kulienu ndi ala-anyi

Zaa oku Naijiria

Je ozi n'okwukwe, n'ike, n'ihunanya

Ka mbo ndi odogwu anyi gbara

Ghara ila n'ighi

Je ozi na ume na obi

Na obodo nwere onwe ya, n'udo, n'idi n'otu

Yaku 'yan Nijeriya ku farka;

Ku amsa kiran Nijeriya;

Domin mu taimaki kasarmu ta haihuwa;

Don aiki ga kasata cikin soyayya da rikon gaskiya;

Domin gudumawar da shuwagabaninmu 'yan kishin kasa suka bada;

kada ta zama a banza;

Muyi aiki da zuciya daya da girmamawa a gareta;

Domin ta kasance kasa daya mai yanci ga kowa tare da hadin kai da zaman lafiya.

Dide eyin ara .

Wa je-pe Naijiria,

ka fife sin 'lewa

pelu okun ati 'gbagbo

Ki ise awon akoni wa ko ma se ja sa-san,

ka sin tokan-tara

ile tominira wa,

alafia so-dokan.
