Island In The Sun [1957]
This is my island in the sun
- 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
- 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
- Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
- Harry Belafonte
