Island In The Sun - The Spinners (纺纱工)[00:00:00]
This is my island in the sun[00:00:09]
Where my people have[00:00:13]
Toiled since time begun[00:00:14]
I may sail on many a sea[00:00:18]
Her shores will always[00:00:23]
Be home to me[00:00:24]
Oh island in the sun[00:00:27]
Willed to me by my father's hand[00:00:32]
All my days I will sing in praise[00:00:36]
Of your forest waters your[00:00:40]
Shining sand[00:00:43]
As morning breaks[00:00:55]
The heaven on high[00:00:56]
I lift my heavy load to the sky[00:00:59]
Sun comes down with a burning glow[00:01:03]
And mingles my sweat[00:01:08]
In the earth below[00:01:09]
Oh island in the sun[00:01:12]
Willed to me by my father's hand[00:01:17]
All my days I will sing in praise[00:01:22]
Of your forest waters[00:01:25]
Your shining sand[00:01:27]
I see woman on bended knee[00:01:39]
Cutting cane for her family[00:01:44]
I see man at the water side[00:01:48]
Casting nets at the surging tide[00:01:53]
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[00:02:06]
Of your forest waters[00:02:10]
Your shining sand[00:02:13]
I hope the day will never come[00:02:25]
That I can't awake to[00:02:29]
The sound of drum[00:02:30]
Never leave me miss carnival[00:02:33]
With calypso songs philosophical[00:02:38]
Oh island in the sun[00:02:42]
Willed to me by my father's hand[00:02:47]
All my days I will sing in praise[00:02:51]
Of your forest waters[00:02:55]
Your shining sand[00:02:57]
All my days I will sing in praise[00:03:00]
Of your forest waters[00:03:04]
Your shining sand[00:03:06]
