School Songs

Oh What a Wonderful Wonderful Day.

Oh what a wonderful, wonderful day,

Day I would never forget,

After I wonder in darkness away

Jesus my saviour I met

Oh what a tender compassionate friend,

He made a lead of my heart,

Shadow dispelling, with joy I am telling

He made all the darkness depart.

 

Chrs:- Oh heavens came down and glory

He fills my soul, fills my soul,

When at the cross my saviour made me whole, made me whole

My sins are washed away, and my dark was turned to day

Heavens came down and glory he fills my soul fills my soul.

We Shall Not Be Moved.

We shall not - We shall not be moved (2ce)

Just like a tree that's standing by the waterside,

We shall not be moved.

We shall stand and fight together; we shall not be moved (2ce)

Just like the tree that's standing by the waterside, (2ce)

We shall not be moved.

We are black and white together; we shall not be moved (2ce)

Just like the tree that's standing by the waterside, (2ce)

We shall not be moved.

Oniwonwe da wonwe.

Ladies and Gentlemen.

Ladies and gentlemen 2ce

We wish you good evening,

An essay life foe you all here

Early in the morning, we were all here,

and we shall try and entertain you tonight

 

Ladies and gentlemen 2ce

We wish good evening, an essay life foe you all here

Mr. and Mrs. Sharma, Fafiolu Defemi,

We wish you good evening, an essay life foe you all here.

I love to tell you a story, which haven't been told before.

I love to tell you a story, which haven't been told before

How we fought for life and glory, in the famous Zulu war.

Side by side we fought like comrades, till our enemies were all dead;

When my friend was short and helpless, then he turned to me and says:

 

Chrs:-  Oh give my love to mummy; she is the only one I adore;

Tell her she would never see her mummy anymore;

Say I died in action, while fighting for her flag; I am buried in the

sailor boat, beneath the union jack

 

At first I thought him joking, for he loves a bit of fun

Then I saw my comrade's lilly at the barrel of his gun

Then I knew he was in earnest, for he never did this way

Turning round he, said oh! Comrades, best of friends must pass someday.

 

Chrs:-  O give my love to mummy,

Oh take the ring from my finger, and locket from my neck

There's no time to waste on linger,

As I hope you will one day

When you reach the shore of England, as I hope you will one day

Take the locket to my mummy, as I order please obey.

 

Chrs:-  Oh give my love to mummy.

 

In American City

In American city (2ce)

Where I was born (2ce)

A little boy, (2ce)

Whom I loved so dear (2ce)

He comfort me (2ce)

And sat me down (2ce)

And without me, he couldn't stay

 

Chrs:- Oridando, Oridando, Oridando,

Oridando, Oridando, Oridando, Oridando, Oridando

 

Upstairs he went 2ce

To get a knife 2ce

To cut a rope 2ce

To hang himself 2ce

And on his grace, a marble stood

To show the world, he died for love

He died for love.

 

Chrs:- Oridando Oridando.

The Charms of Zukiyaki

The charms of zukiyaki, the charms of zukiyaki

Are on our way, when I left for amayazaki

When then I roam far away from home I beg that she will wait for me - 2ce

The handsome mapuzaki, sweet handsome eyes don't leave me

What will I do, I'll be through, darling please believe me.

That if I roam all away from home promise that you will wait for me.

Chrs:- When handsome one trying to be true,

When then united the prince of the king,

I make my zukiyaki - 2ce

The only queen to be seen near amayazaki

When then I roam, all away from home promise that you will wait for me.

Leaving on a Jet Plane

All my bags are packed am ready to go 'Standing her outside your door

Hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breaking its early morning the tai is awaiting, it's blowing its horn

Already I'm so lonesome I could cry.

Chrs:- So kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me like you'll never let me go

I'm leaving on a jet plane

I don't know when I'll be back again

Oh baby I hate to go.

There's so many times I let you down

So many times I played around

But now you know that they don't mean a thing

Every place I go I think of you

Very place I go I think of you

Every song I sing I sing for you

When I come back I'll wear wedding ring.

Chrs:-

Now the time has come to have you with me 

One more time through let me kiss you

Close your eyes and I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come that I would have to live alone

About those times that I won't have to say goodbye.

Chrs:-

AGGS lonshe Ojo Ibi

AGGS lo she ojo ibi

Ewa bawa yo

 

Biko basi ti owo ti kosi

Abape onilu

Sibe sibe, e wa ba wa jo,

E wa ba wa yo oooo

Nse lo kan ma redi – AGGS ko ma le jo

 

Omo September lo sh'omo re

Omo September, omo September loshe omo ire (2ce)

 

Chrs:-  Loni oooo loni oooo loni ooo

Loni oooo loni oooo loni ooo

            Loni oooo loni oooo.
