F.D.R. In Trinidad - Ry Cooder (莱·库德)[00:00:00]

When Roosevelt came to the land of the hummingbird[00:00:06]

Shouts of welcome were heard[00:00:10]

Roosevelt came to the land of the hummingbird[00:00:12]

Shouts of welcome were heard[00:00:16]

His visit to their island is bound to be[00:00:19]

An epoch in local history[00:00:22]

Definitely marking the new era[00:00:25]

Keeping Trinidad in America[00:00:28]

For this great man jubilation[00:00:38]

Was evinced by the entire population[00:00:42]

Friendship for the U S A was shown[00:00:45]

From his house to stars and the stripes were flown[00:00:48]

For the state to open the gate[00:00:51]

To the president of these United States[00:00:54]

In fact everybody was glad[00:00:57]

To welcome Roosevelt to Trinidad[00:01:00]

We are privileged to see the democratic[00:01:41]

President of the great republic[00:01:44]

With his charming and genial personality[00:01:47]

And his wonderful urbanity[00:01:50]

We were struck by his modest style[00:01:54]

And we were intrigued by the famous Roosevelt smile[00:01:56]

No wonder why everybody was glad[00:02:00]

To welcome Roosevelt to Trinidad[00:02:02]

Now we understand that the president has just been[00:02:12]

On a visit to Brazil and the Argentine[00:02:16]

Mr Cordell Hull in attendance[00:02:19]

They took part in a peace conference[00:02:22]

To stop war and atrocity[00:02:25]

And make the world safe for democracy[00:02:27]

The greatest event in the century[00:02:30]

In the interest of suffering humanity[00:02:34]
