In the heart of an ancient kingdom;
a kingdom of impact;
a kingdom of victory
Past war they fought;
they conquered
kings like lions
decorated in corals;
walks with his chiefs;
like pride of lions
clothed in red;
a display of culture
walking with strength;
displaying dignity
Cultural dancers;
dressed in red
dancing with pride;
a touch of African music;
a passion of drumbeats
Food so mouthwatering ;
and so savoring
salivating at the aroma
a taste of African herbs;
displaying a rich culture
Welcome to Benin city;
an ancient kingdom;
of passion, art and culture
