Couplet
CThis is my island Fin the sun
Where my G7people have toiled since Ctime begun.
I Cmay sail on Dmmany a sea
Her Cshores will G7always be Chome to me.
Refrain
COh island Fin the sun
G7Willed to me by my Cfather's hand
CAll my days I will Fsing in praise
Of your G7forests waters your Cshining sands.
Couplet
CAs morning breaks the Fheaven on high
I G7lift my heavy Cload to the sky.
CSun comes down with a Dmburning glow
CMingles my G7sweat with the Cearth below.
Refrain
COh island Fin the sun
G7Willed to me by my Cfather's hand
CAll my days I will Fsing in praise
Of your G7forests waters your Cshining sands.
Couplet
I Csee woman on Fbended knee
G7Cutting cane for her Cfamily.
I Csee man at the Dmwater side
CCasting G7nets at the Csurging tide.
Refrain
COh island Fin the sun
G7Willed to me by my Cfather's hand
CAll my days I will Fsing in praise
Of your G7forests waters your Cshining sands.
Couplet
I Chope the day will Fnever come
That I G7can't awake to the Csound of drum
CNever let me miss Dmcarnival
With Ccalypso G7songs Cphilosophical.
Refrain
COh island Fin the sun
G7Willed to me by my Cfather's hand
CAll my days I will Fsing in praise
Of your G7forests waters your Cshining sands.
