Cross River State thrives, as ships come and go,
As plane loads of investors move to and fro.

Millions of Visitors have come to know,
It is located in a place just like paradise.
Not all who come there are merchants of trade,
With samples and contracts to persuade.

To some it's a place to relax in the shade,
After touring through the state,
Known as the people's paradise.

In the heart of this paradise
There stands a garden built for leisure
shopping and rooms also inclusive

A place of tranquility where friendship blooms,
For all who set out there to be swooned.
This garden is the TINAPA.

The warmth that you feel at the TINAPA,
Is the presence of God that has come to calabar.
You'll find a new peace and your fears will dispel,
As you leisure, shop and spend time with God at the TINAPA.
