    Zọlié ndi àlà anyị

In Yoruba

Dide eyin ara .

In Hausa

Yaku ‘yan Nijeriya ku farka;
    Ku amsa kiran Nijeriya;
    Domin mu taimaki ƙasarmu ta haihuwa;
    Don aiki ga ƙasata cikin soyayya da riƙon gaskiya;
    Domin gudumawar da shuwagabaninmu ‘yan kishin ƙasa suka bada;
    kada ta zama a banza;
    Muyi aiki da zuciya ɗaya da girmamawa a gareta;
    Domin ta kasance ƙasa ɗaya mai yanci ga kowa tare da haɗin kai da zaman lafiya.

May God bless our great Nation.

Amen
