(Majestic talking drums enter with a royal flare)
(Royal horn fanfare)
Lead Singer: Arise, Osupa! The dawn is breaking!
Arise, Ogbomoso! The world is awakening!
The light has come, the time is here,
The call of our ancestors rings loud and clear!
Oya, make we gather!
O sons and daughters of the royal line,
The hour has come for our stars to shine.
Our fathers left a legacy of pride,
A precious inheritance we must not hide.
From the ancient gates to the modern street,
We march forward with steady feet.
(Ehen!) Omo, see the fire in our eyes,
We go higher, no matter the size!
Arise! Arise! Let Osupa rise!
Let our royal banner touch the skies!
Arise! Arise! Let our voices ring!
Long live our heritage, long live our king!
Ogbomoso! (E choke!)
Unity is the key that opens the door,
We are the giants, we are the lore.
Building the future with hands so strong,
This is the place where we all belong.
No more wahala, we choose the light,
Shining so bright in the middle of the night.
(See gobe!) We leave the past, we take the lead,
Planting the future, that is the seed.
Arise! Arise! Let Osupa rise!
Let our royal banner touch the skies!
Arise! Arise! Let our voices ring!
Long live our heritage, long live our king!
Can you feel the ginger? Can you feel the heat?
We bring the rhythm to every single street.
From the palace ground to the marketplace,
We hold the crown with grace and pace!
Arise, Osupa! (No dulling!)
The time is now! (Oya!)
We stand tall, we stand proud!
Ogbomoso forever! (Shey you dey hear?)
(Fade out with heavy drum rhythms and royal horns)
