Tune: CM Nigbati danwo yi mi ka



1.  NOT of dim mem'ry shall I be

     The day that mum saith unto me

     When independence attaineth 

     Nay, forget not the day of mum. 

Chorus: When all revealed vividly clear 

             Great love borne unto me by mum 

             Words of love unto me recap 

            Nay forget not the day of mum.


2.  I shall in mem’ry ever be

     All the toils of mum over me

     Me, watcheth over dusk and dawn 

     In surplusity and of drought.

Chorus: When all revealed...


3.  Honest counsellor art the mum 

     Father, the helper, limited 

     Supposed mother, replica 

     None be so worthy as the mum. 

Chorus: When all revealed...


4.  Supposed father, nay of worth 

     The replica, nay of the real

     None can console, none can forebear 

     None worthy as father and Mum. 

Chorus: When all revealed...


5.  Lo! Mothers thy harvest shall come 

     Lo! Father thy harvest shall broth 

     None shall thy glory to deny

     By the pow’r of Almighty God. 

Chorus: When all revealed vividly clear 

             Great love borne unto me by mum 

             Words of love unto me recap 

            Nay forget not the day of mum.  Amen
