《Island in the Sun》歌词

[00:00:00] Island in the Sun - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

[00:00:02] This is my island in the sun

[00:00:09] Where my people have

[00:00:10] Toiled since time begun

[00:00:15] I may sail on many a sea

[00:00:22] Her shores will always be home to me

[00:00:29] Oh island in the sun

[00:00:34] Built to me by my father's hand

[00:00:38] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:00:43] Of your forest waters

[00:00:45] Your shining sand

[00:00:50] As morning breaks

[00:00:52] The heaven on high

[00:00:55] I lift my heavy load to the sky

[00:00:59] Sun comes down with a burning glow

[00:01:04] Mingles my sweat with the earthly low

[00:01:09] Oh island in the sun

[00:01:13] Built to me by my father's hand

[00:01:17] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:01:21] Of your forest waters

[00:01:23] Your shining sand

[00:01:29] I see woman on bended knee

[00:01:33] Cutting cane for her family

[00:01:37] I see man at the water-side

[00:01:42] Casting nets at the surfing tide

[00:01:47] Oh island in the sun

[00:01:51] Built to me by my father's hand

[00:01:55] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:01:59] Of your forest waters

[00:02:01] Your shining sand
