This is my island in the sun
Where my people have toiled since time begun
Though I may sail on many seas
Her shores will always be home to me.
Oh island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days I will sing in praise
Of your forests, waters, your shining sand.
As morning breaks the heaven on high
I lift my heavy load to the sky
Sun comes down with a burning glow
Mingles my sweat with the earth below.
Oh island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days I will sing in praise
Of your forests, waters, your shining sand.
I see woman on bended knee
Cutting cane for her family
I see man at the waters side
Casting nets at the surging tide
Oh island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days I will sing in praise
Of your forests, waters, your shining sand.
I hope the day will never come
When I can't wake to the sound of drum
Never let me miss carmival
With calypso songs philosophical.
Oh island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days I will sing in praise
Of your forests, waters, your shining sand.
