(...for the lovers of football. Dedicated to the Nigerian football team).
Go Super Eagles of Nigeria
The world stage has become your play area
Filled with grits, strength and with no initial _gra gra_
Cos you radiate excellence and grandeur in your professional career.
East to West, North to South , you ably represent.
Goals, upon goals, you always present.
Like trained soldiers and samurai warriors sent
You lift our spirits and shade our fears like a beautiful tent.
No one dares underestimate your prowess
Watching you guys play is a delight I must confess
For the swiftness and skillfulness you greatly possess
I will choose you over and over again my mind can process
Today, another battle sits ready on the table.
Africa, your continent, awaits your display like something edible.
Feed them, your opponents, until they're ashamed and very uncomfortable
For you remain the best, reaching heights quite unattainable
Mark for mark, like for like, you must win.
Dazzling with glitz and glam in the mould of Aladdin.
Fast and furious, magical like Mary Poppins.
You mesmerize the world and put them on a spin.
Lions roar, goats bleat and cocks crow
Like eagles, you soar high and above the rows
Beyond catch and touch you evidently in darkness glow
Just like the sweetness and freshness of a river's flow .
*gra gra... means fuss about something.
