derrick harriott - island in the sun lyrics
[verse 1]
this is my island in the sun
where my people have toiled since time begun
i may sail on many sea
but these shores will always be home to me
[chorus]
oh, island in the sun, willed to me by my father’s hand
all my days i’ll be singing praise
of your forest waters
your shining sun
[instrumental]
[verse 2]
i see a woman on bended knees
cutting cane for her family
i see man at the waterside
casting nets at the surging tide
[chorus]
oh, island in the sun, willed to me by my father’s hand
all my days i’ll be singing praise
of your forest watеrs
your shining sand
[instrumental]
[verse 3]
i pray the day will never comе
when i can’t awake to the sound of drums
never let me miss carnival
with calypso songs philosophical
[chorus]
oh, island in the sun, willed to me by my father’s hand
all my days i’ll be singing praise
of your forest waters
your shining sand
