From Awka down to Nbakwu town, the sound is calling
Palm-wine strings and horn horns singing, spirits falling
Old-school groove with modern twist, that's the mission chidima
Nbakwu pride in every note, it's our tradition

Now we rising up, chop life, living for today
The guitar weeping sweet, and the bass is deep
Highlife melody gonna make the whole nation leap, eii!

Stories in the melodies, wisdom in the sound
Every lyric carries weight, feet off the ground
Twi on the tongue, Akan in the flow

We're creating magic from morning to night, wonim!
