THIS IS MY HOME The foundation of my birth The birth of my foundation The seed from which I germinated The sea that watered me to fruition The path that leads me to glory. Oh Zuru! You are great Your greatness beyond boundaries Your womb is blessed boundlessly In its fertility emerges great men and their women You are a vast stream that flows with peace and love. Each time I pay you homage My heart witnesses a sparkle To shine like gold through my being I admire your friendship with nature Its kindness to you sweetens me Blessed with a vast , vast, vast land Fertile, buoyant and full of warmth With food to eat, water in abundance. I love you so much for your courage And cherish your fearlessness beyond comment I wonder not your children are Generals in rich numbers My mother of great warriors and daring hunters with farms to cultivate in high spirits Oh Mama Azugru, accept my warm greetings. You are beautiful No one marries to divorce you Your daughters are angels even in the face of all angels Beautiful, kind, caring, intelligent and faithful we all know them Suitors kneel before them heads raised in submission Seeking their love , Undiluted and pure in purity. Zuru Your name a golden key that opens all doors Like wild fire in the harmattan it has spread to all lands Look at your hands Like the baobab tree Big strong and comforting Covering your children like an umbrella Who must not be touched by the scorch of the sun of disunity? Zuru land You are love at first sight for those who have eyes How strongly I admire you, my dear mother! You were never conquered Never intimidated at day or night No warrior ever walked through your door or scaled your wars They fear your red eyes Like a wild lion your roar melts them like jelly on fire . I salute you, Zuru the slave master Your list of slaves is long yet so rich The kambaris in front The Zamfarawa follow in succession Katsinawa jump like frogs after heavy rain when they come to your compound I invite all slaves to come dine with their kind master. Zuru, my Zuru , I will always love you The tonic that energizes my spirit in all weathers I crave for your cool embrace at this moment Give me your hug, your love to keep me cool From the hostile weather of lifes uncertainties Zuru here I come... Smile at me and give me true comfort.
