”The sweet fragrances of the morning
Has come to my nose and face
Yesu masoyina, You made this possible!
Even when I lay like a log of wood
You came to wake my slumber Lord…”
Now the mornings has come
It is still dark but very warm
With the morning, Divine providence
I hear the sound of twittering birds
I smell the airs of the dry earth
As the dusts suck the last rains moist
The wind is full of soothing comfort
I feel Your blessed and everlasting support
For the peace which You gave my soul
And also, the blessed cravings of my soul,
The beautiful faces and light I see
And the sweet dreams You gave me
I look up to You always, my Provider
My God, my lover and my Jehovah
And through all I do, You are my direction
For You are my sure source of inspiration
I can’t reverence You enough Father
I wake strong to say, na’gode Allah!
Note:
Na’gode Allah… Thank You God
Yesu, masoyina… Hausa language for Jesus, my love
Hausa is a northern Nigerian tribe whose cultural influences spread into Niger republic and some West African countries.
