Umuigbo [English translation]

Anywhere you go

Anywhere you go

If you don't see an Igbo man

Brother, you're messed up (run)

(Ayamm mma)

Run away for that place is rotten

(Ayamma mma)

Run away for that place is a dead end

(Ayamma mma)

Even in a country that is hard to enter, Igbos are there

(Ayamma mma)

When they enter the place, they become established

(Ayamma mma)

God's wealth is what we are using to move forward

(Ayamma mma)

Iyooko iyoo oko oko

All Igbos, all Igbos

Let's come together because we are all one

God is our strength

God is our strength

God is our strength

And that's what we are using to move forward

Let me go home to Igboland, where I was born

(Ayamma mma)

When you look at my feet, I'm wearing Aba1 footwears

(Ayamma mma)

Innoson Group2 is now assembling cars

(Ayamma mma)

Things made in Nnewi is what I'm looking for

(Ayamma mma)

I will eat Abakaliki3 rice

(Ayamma mma)

The wealth of the house knows where it began

Because

Anywhere you go

Anywhere you go

If you don't see an Igbo man

Brother, you're messed up

God is our strength,

God is our strength,

God is our strength

And that is what we are using to move forward

What happened that we aren't showing one another brotherly love

What's wrong, our language is fading

When an Igbo man gives birth, he'll speak English language to his children

English is good, but it's not our language

Our Ijele4, you're saying the facts

Biggie my brother, all Igbos let's rise

All Igbos, all Igbos

Let's come together because we are all one

God is our strength,

God is our strength,

God is our strength

And that's what we are using to move forward

I'm sorrowful because of our people that were killed5

(Ayamma mma)

I have goosebumps and that's why I'm crying

(Ayamma mma)

They rape our women and that's why I'm screaming

They starve our children and that's why I'm crying

(Ayamma mma)

Nnamdi Kanu6, my brother, keep going

(Ayamma mma)

No matter what happens, God's plan will come to pass

All Igbos, all Igbos

Let's come together because we are all one

Because anywhere you go oo

Anywhere you go oo

If you don't see an Igbo man

Brother, you're messed up

Run away for that place is messed up

(Ayamma mma)

Run away for that place is messed up

(Ayamma mma)

We Igbos are industrious, and that's what we're saying

Evil spirits nor evil people can't do anything for they are wasting their time

My brother Ijele, we're moving forward with God

(Ayamma mma)

Biggie Igbo my brother, we're moving forward with God

Because God is our strength

God is our strength

God is our strength

And we are moving forward with God

Genevieve7, child of Igbo, we're walking with you (first daughter of Mbaise)

Ijele my brother, we Igbos are walking with you

Ogadagidi8 our own, we Igbos are walking with you

Chimamanda Adichie9, we Igbos are walking with you

Bangladesh is where we Igbos are entering

Obi in South, we Igbos are using you to speak

Iyookoko iyookoko is what I'm playing here

Mix Monster

Iyo m iyo m iyoo koko
