National Anthem of Nigeria
Arise, O compatriots, Nigeria’s call obey
To serve our fatherland
With love and strength and faith
The labor of our heroes past
Shall never be in vain
To serve with heart and might
One nation bound in freedom, peace and unity.
Oh God of creation, direct our noble cause;
Guide our leaders right;
Help our Youth the truth to know
In love and honesty to grow
And living just and true
Great lofty heights attain
To build a nation where peace and justice shall reign.

The Official Lyrics of "The Indian National Anthem"
Jana Gana Mana
(composed by Rabindranath Tagore)
Jana-gana-mana-adhinayaka, jaya he
Bharata-bhagya-vidhata
Punjab-Sindhu-Gujarata-Maratha
Dravida-Utkala-Banga
Vindhya-Himachala-Yamuna-Ganga
Uchchala-Jaldhi-taranga
Tava shubha name jage
Tava shubha ashish mange
Gahe tava jaya-gatha
Jana-gana-mangala-dayaka jaya he
Bharata-bhagya-vidhata
Jaya he, jaya he, jaya he
Jaya jaya jaya, jaya he!
The Translation of "The Indian National Anthem"
Thou art the rulers of the minds of all people,
dispenser of India's destiny.
Thy name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sind, Gujarat and Maratha,
Of the Dravida and Orissa and Bengal;
It echoes in the hills of the Vindhyas and Himalayas,
mingles in the music of Yamuna and Ganga and is
chanted by the waves of the Indian Sea.
They pray for thy blessings and sing thy praise.
The saving of all people waits in thy hand,
thou dispenser of India's destiny,
Victory, victory, victory to thee.

i am from philippines. the title of our national anthem is Lupang Hinirang and these are the lyrics.
Bayang magiliw, perlas ng silanganan
alab ng puso, sa dibdib mo'y buhay
Lupang hinirang, duyan ka nang magiting
sa manlulupig di ka pasisiil
Sa dagat at bundok, sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw
may dilag ang tula at awit sa paglayag minamahal
Ang kislap ng watawat mo'y tagumpay na nagniningning
ang bituin at araw niya kailan pa ma'y di magdidilim
Lupa ng araw, ng luwalhati't pagsinta
Buhay ay langit sa piling mo
Aming ligaya, na pag may mangaapi
ang mamatay ng dahil sa yo.
