Aminu Ado Bayero Dance of Blessings

Lyrics

[Intro] Aminu Ado Bayero (hey!) See the drums See the crowd Six sweet years Standing proud Kano singing your name out loud [Verse 1] From the sunrise over Kano sky To the markets where the colors fly Every elder Every little child Knows your heart is calm and mild Man of peace in a restless day You choose wisdom to lead the way On the historic throne you stand Honor shining in your hand [Chorus] Aminu Ado Bayero Maza Maza Kano city say "Allah ya kara" Man of mercy Man of light Guiding us through every night Aminu Ado Bayero Hear this prayer Every street is calling you We care Ya Allah Protect him where he roams Bring him back to Dabo homes [Verse 2] In the dust We still dance and sing Your good name is a gentle spring When the worry feels too strong Your justice keeps our spirits strong You are loved in the farmer’s field You are blessed in the sword you sheathed Voice of reason when tempers rise Calm reflection in your eyes [Chorus] Aminu Ado Bayero Maza Maza Kano city say "Allah ya kara" Man of mercy Man of light Guiding us through every night Aminu Ado Bayero Hear this prayer Every street is calling you We care Ya Allah Protect him where he roams Bring him back to Dabo homes [Bridge] [Beat drops to handclaps and bass] Ya Allah Ya Rahman Hear our plea (hey!) Guard our Emir Keep him free Under Your sky Where brave hearts grow Return him to the House of Dabo Write his story in gentle gold Let his years on the throne unfold With more peace More love to sow Shower blessings as they flow [Chorus] Aminu Ado Bayero Maza Maza Kano city say "Allah ya kara" Man of mercy Man of light Guiding us through every night Aminu Ado Bayero Hear this prayer Every street is calling you We care Ya Allah Protect him where he roams Bring him back to Dabo homes [Outro] From my heart In this sweet song (oh yeah) Magayakin Carno sings it strong For our Emir Wherever you may be May Allah guard you endlessly
