I have danced for the year before
When Gombe reached twenty-three
But today I am singing for the day
My hometown reached twenty-four
Gombe, jewel in the Savannah
Full of patriotic leaders
Full of talented educationists
And enriched in commercial boost
The forehead of eastern States
That smiles to the western States
That makes northern and southern impressed
The fast growing State in Nigeria
The ladened State that shines
In the northeast of Nigeria
Like the star shines in the sky
Like the river shines in the jungle
Gombe, the home of peace
Gombe, the home of unity
Gombe, the home of pride
Gombe, the home of respect
Gombe, the State of beauty
Gombe, the State of contentment
Gombe, the State of charisma
Gombe, the State of quality and quantity
Gombe, the State that bleeds
The drops of happiness in Nigeria
Gombe, the State that sacrifices
The bunch of agricultural products
To the whole Nigeria
Gombe that makes Nigeria to smile
That it's name rises up and down
That it's name flows from east to west
That north and south sniff it's scent
Gombe, the State that painted
The whole Nigeria with it's colour
