《Island In The Sun》歌词

[00:00:00] Island In The Sun - World Music

[00:00:16] This is island in the sun

[00:00:20] Where my people have

[00:00:21] Toiled since time begun

[00:00:24] I may sail on many a sea

[00:00:28] Her shores will always

[00:00:30] Be home to me

[00:00:33] Oh island in the sun

[00:00:37] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:00:40] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:00:44] Of your forest waters your

[00:00:46] Shining sand

[00:00:49] As morning breaks

[00:00:50] The heaven on high

[00:00:53] I lift my heavy load to the sky

[00:00:57] Sun comes down with a burning glow

[00:01:01] Mingles my sweat

[00:01:02] In the earth below

[00:01:05] Oh island in the sun

[00:01:09] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:01:13] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:01:17] Of your forest waters

[00:01:19] Your shining sand

[00:01:38] I see woman on bended knee

[00:01:42] Cutting cane for her family

[00:01:45] I see man at the water side

[00:01:49] Casting nets at the surging tide

[00:01:54] Oh island in the sun

[00:01:58] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:02:02] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:02:05] Of your forest waters

[00:02:07] Your shining sand

[00:02:26] I praise the day will never come

[00:02:29] When I can't awake to

[00:02:32] The sound of drum

[00:02:34] Never let me miss carnival

[00:02:38] With calypso songs philosophical

[00:02:42] Oh island in the sun

[00:02:46] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:02:50] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:02:54] Of your forest waters

[00:02:56] Your shining sand
