Making use of nonabelian harmonic analysis and representation theory, we solve the functional equation f1(xy) + f2(yx) + f3(xy-1) + f4(y-1x) = f5(x)f6(y) on arbitrary compact groups, where all fi's are unknown square integrable functions. It turns out that the structure of its general solution is analogous to that of linear differential equations. Consequently, various special cases of the above equation, in particular, the Wilson equation and the d'Alembert long equation, are solved on compact groups.
