Patriotic Song
This is the name of our native land,
We spell it out of eight letters.
C stands for Come,
A stands for And,
ME stands for Meet,
RO stands for Romance,
O stands for Over,
N stands for night.
Come And MEet ROmance Over Night
C A M E R O O N
Come And MEet ROmance Over Night
C A M E R O O N
Come And MEet ROmance Over Night

We!

Notes
Nyango Melissa wrote, "Kumbele and Ayaya are some of those words that are like falalala lala or tra la la. They may have meaning in some African language. Not too sure of that."
