Nigeria's National Anthem In Igbo Language by emmalezy(m): 2:14am On Apr 08, 2015
after seeing the national anthem in yoruba language..
i decided to work on the igbo language..
oya enjoy below..

i love my language...


VERSE 1

Bilie, O compatriots,
Nigeria oku rube isi
Iji na-eje ozi anyị nna
Na ịhụnanya na ike na okwukwe.
The ọrụ anyị dike gara aga
Ga dịghị abụ ihe efu,
Iji na-eje ozi na obi na ike
Otu mba agbụ na nnwere onwe, udo na ịdị n'otu.



VERSE 2

O Chineke nke okike
Direct anyị ọmarịcha
Eduzi gi anyị ndú nri
Nyere ndị ntorobịa anyị eziokwu mara
Na ịhụnanya na-eme ihe n'eziokwu na-eto eto
Na-ebi ndụ otú na ezi
Great elu elu nweta
Na-ewu a mba ebe udo
Na ikpe ziri ezi ga-eze.



THE PLEDGE
M nkwa Nigeria m Country
Iji ikwesị ntụkwasị obi,-eguzosi ike n'ihe na-eme ihe n'eziokwu
Iji na-eje ozi Nigeria m nile ike
Iji chebe ya dị n'otu
Ma na-akwado ya nsọpụrụ na otuto
Ya mere enyere m aka Chineke.
