RIVER OF TEARS

With the coo of Doves,
So peaceful it was a time.
Graciously guided her heritage
Like a Panther she prides herself in the ways of survival.


Oh! Benue my Home

So peaceful
Like a giraffe she stands tall amongst her peers
Carve a name that blesses all like the rain.

Oh! The Food Basket of the Nation

Oh! Tears and tears,
Again and again
Washing away our heritage we once guided.
We run and run without saying
Goodbye to our yams, our pride
No more River Benue,
But, the Red sea.
The river of blood
Where are the Pharaohs from?
Like scatter sheep,
Mothers cry for their children
Children for their mothers
But the blood separates both

Oh! Benue my people
