CThis is my island Fin the sun
Where my G7people have toiled since Ctime begun.
CI may sail on Dmmany a sea
Her Cshores will always be G7home to Cme.


COh, island Fin the sun,
G7Willed to me by my Cfather's hand
CAll my days I will Fsing and praise
Of your G7forests, waters, your Cshining sands.


CAs morning breaks the Fheaven on high
I G7lift my heavy Cload to the sky.
CSun comes down with a Dmburning glow
CMingles my sweat with the G7earth beClow.

{
 C:Chorus}

CI see woman on [f]bended knees
G7Cutting cane for her Cfamily.
CI see man at the Dmwater side
CCasting nets at the G7surging Ctide.

{
 C:Chorus}

CI hope the day will Fnever come
That G7I can't awake to the Csound of a drum,
CNever let me miss Dmcarnival
With calyCpso songs philoG7sophiCcal.
