Ancient Nembe, cast in iron
Your warriors fought with a will never tire
Your way of life is strong and true.
In all you do, you stay ever so true
Your masks and drums echo in the night
Your stories of realms unknown, so enlightening and bright.
Your warriors, I wish I can say they still protect the truth
In ways beyond what some may misconstrue.
Your culture entwined with nature's grace
You take great care in preserving your place in your days,
Your mysteries and secrets though, remain untold.
And still your people will never get old in our memories.
Ancient Nembe, you still stand proud and far beyond the present
Your culture is a treasure, never to be clouded.
Your past shone bright, I wish I can say same for the present.
Your legacy told in stories, stories never to be untold.
