goombay dance band – island in the sun lyrics
this is my island in the sun where my people have toiled since time begun i may sail on many a sea her sh-r-s 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 forest, 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 forest, waters, your shining sand
i see woman on bended knee cutting cane for her family i see man at the waterside 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 forest, waters, your shining sand
i pray the day will never come when i can’t awake to the sound of drum never let me miss carnival 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 forest, waters, your shining sand
