A song made by Chioma
A song made by Chioma
Chinaza don return oh
Acha, I dey come back
From Umuebo to Umuofor, I dey waka
Every path, every stone, I sabi am well
The river Imo dey call my name
Whispering stories wey my fathers dem tell
Umueze, Umuakara, land of my people
Where the palm trees dem dey dance for breeze
Acha, my sacred ground, my beginning
Your soil dey run for my veins with ease
Acha, nne m, I don come home
Where my ancestors dem dey rest
From Umuebo to the rivers wey dey flow
Acha, you be the land I love best
Acha, nne m, my heart dey beat
For every hamlet, every stream
No place for this world go ever sweet
Like Acha, my ancestral dream
I remember the Iriji festival time
When the yam dem plenty, the people dem dance
Umuofor masquerades dem dey shine
Every step na our heritage, our chance
The elders dem sit under udala tree
Sharing wisdom, kola nut, and palm wine
Acha, you teach me who I suppose to be
Your rivers, your soil, your spirit divine
Nwannem, this na where my story start
Umueze, Umuakara, forever for my heart
Acha, nne m, I don come home
Where my ancestors dem dey rest
From Umuebo to the rivers wey dey flow
Acha, you be the land I love best
Acha, nne m, my heart dey beat
For every hamlet, every stream
No place for this world go ever sweet
Like Acha, my ancestral dream
Chinaza Ekeoma don return
Acha, I no go leave you again
Chukwu bless this sacred land
Ife, udo, forever, amen
