I’ve been on a temple track, Running a relay race, With fine fellow, For a long time In rain, sun, mist, and fog When will I reach? When will I exchange the baton? Today on the stop line is me Legs for long get tired As trial and tribulation do come Some fell while some kept running on track Oh, fine fellow! if you don’t want to be knocked down by a dazzling truck Maintain your line, Run fast for the last lap, And leave fine fruits alone Mind you, our seniors have succeeded in several seconds Our days are numbered These are what every mouth is miming Since when we started are approaching Oh, temple track! Give us hope Results have to show surely on that day Some shall smile and some shall cry For the digits that will be displayed On green papers

Temple track
How? How will I forget you? How far have I gone? That I can't see my back I'm not such a blind driver, That drives without looking at his mirrow... On a narrow road, Thinking to arrive safely... Do you think that I forget you, Your face, Walking And thoughts in class.... If I forget everything, Methinks these would not be forgotten.... Don't you think I'm that a child? That remembers his mother's caring in the day and night... Hes efforts in disciplining him, Her responses to his cries open your ears and hear me! I still see you in my hearts With both good and bad image We don't talk but you are in my mind Know that the tree you watered Is spreading its roots, Products, And shades in the world... I'm still grateful By Muhammad Auwal Ibrahim

HOW?
Please prove to us that you are a fine fan That can dry the sweat in us After the sixteen years of hardness Be a handkerchief That can clean our tears That has been falling for sixteen years Then You have proved to us That You are a changed to us

PLEASE PROVE TO US
I remember when we were dodgers, of intiger's paracetamol of computation... Not knowing it was a fertilization... That better production... I remember when I ran a relay race With fellow folks on blue and white Singing a song, 'Fire  on the Mountain, Run, run, run!' The noise and sweat is over today My legs are on the stop line... And the baton is taken... If I remember how we learned... we leaned... we ran as union... I feel like reversing to school... Returning to form a union... But if I remember the ugly and sad times, I had in primitive period... I feel like not going back ... To the dead period buried on ground Suddenly today comes a time When all graduates come To remember primal class, methinks there comes not a time When all GHS products would come... On dining table and dine... Like when we were primary children... Dear our teachers you are like farmers That farm on our lands For long planting seeds Know that it will never give heat Your service is unrewardable Only God can reward you All the shade we spread now Comes after your fertilization Written By Muhammad Auwal Ibrahim
