A song made by GOD'S CHILD
A song made by GOD'S CHILD
Plateau, Plateau, na tears we dey cry
Plateau, Plateau, why our people dey die?
E don start from morning, e don start from night
Innocent blood dey pour like rain, no end in sight
Mothers dey lose their pikins, fathers dey lose their rest
Plateau State bleeding hard, na the saddest test
Wetin we do to deserve this kind pain?
Every day na another funeral, another refrain
Babies wey never see tomorrow, elders wey see too much
Wahala don overflow, e don pass our touch
We dey bury our brothers and sisters with sorrow deep
Why God, why this burden for Plateau we gotta keep?
Plateau, Plateau, gida namu ta dameta
Zan masu-damewa don kaice mu biyu da uku
Ammuma da ubangiji, sai ka tuba mana
Kasua namu ta dameta, Plateau, Plateau
Neighbors turn to strangers, strangers turn to fear
Trust don break for Plateau, everybody dey hear
Killinas dey spread like sickness, no cure for the pain
Children asking "why papa? Why mama no come again?"
We wan peace, we need healing, we need unity strong
Plateau don suffer too long, too long, too long
But we no go break, we no go bend
We go rise again, this na not the end
Say your prayers, say your prayers for the fallen souls
Plateau State, na God go heal your deepest holes
Plateau, Plateau, gida namu ta dameta
Zan masu-damewa don kaice mu biyu da uku
Ammuma da ubangiji, sai ka tuba mana
Kasua namu ta dameta, Plateau, Plateau
Rest well, rest well, all the fallen ones
Plateau remembers you, until kingdom come
Plateau, Plateau... na tears we dey cry
