monty alexander – 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 a sea
her 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 will sing in praise
of your forest, waters
your shining sand
[verse 2]
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
[chorus]
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
[verse 3]
i see woman on bеnded knee
cutting cane for her family
i see man at thе 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 will sing in praise
of your forest, waters
your shining sand
[instrumental break]
[verse 4]
i hope the day will never come
that i can’t awake to the sound of drum
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 will sing in praise
of your forest, waters
your shining sand
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
