Introlude
A brother and sister (9 years both) arrive home from school and were received by their parents…
Bomb blast!
(In Hausa Language)
Girl: (Sobbing) Mama, Abati, ku tashi… (Mama, Papa, wake up…)
Boy: (Sobbing) Mun zama marayu… (We have become orphans...)
* * *
The orphan child! (We can make it!)
You and I (We can make it!)
Save the… (orphan…)…child
I am an Orphan Child
Humming…
Oh… Oh…Oh….

Verse 1
That’s why the saying goes; “We should love the orphan child”.
(The Almighty loves the orphan child)
Huh. But it seems we don’t understand, for you know that’s not nice!
Just think about it for a moment, if it’s your child that’s on the streets.
(I am an Orphan Child)
For she dunno know, if there’s anyone, anymore, to heed her cry!
(She’s not being catered for anymore…)
O people think twice; when you save an orphan,
You may get a pass to Paradise!
Oh… Oh…
* * *
Chorus
(…then save the orphan child)
Give a little, a slice of date, to the orphan child.
Oh… Oh…Oh….
(…then save the orphan child)
No help is little, be wise, and save the orphan child
You and I!
Verse 2
Once, in the peaceful towns of Chibok, Burma, Syria and Maiduguri,
(I am an Orphan Child)
We had these lovely kids, who could read and write, who now will set them free?!
(The orphan do face hard times)
We just Facebook, Twitter and Youtube, when there is so much that we can do.
(I am an Orphan Child)
The boy aged nine was hurt, and everyone seems to be far away!
(Have the people lost their minds?)
I rushed to rescue him, but he had this to say!
(I am an Orphan Child)
He said it over and over again, just to make me understand.
(He’s just a little boy)
For he dunno know, and realize his very home is no more!
(I am an Orphan Child)
He was drowned in tears, amidst all his fears; then I said, “Too young to know!”
Oh… Oh…
* * *
Chorus
(…then save the orphan child)
Give a little, a slice of date, to the orphan child.
Oh… Oh…Oh….
(…then save the orphan child)
No help is little, be wise, and save…
* * *
Bridge
The orphan child!
You and I!
Each day that comes by,
We’ve got to save an orphan child…
(I am an Orphan Child)

Chorus
(…then save the orphan child)
Give a little, a slice of date, to the orphan child.
Oh… Oh…Oh….
(…then save the orphan child)
No help is little, be wise, and save the orphan child
You and I!
