This is my island in the sun

Where my people have toiled since time begun

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

With calypso songs philosophical

Willed to me by my father's hand

All my days I will sing in praise

Of your forest, waters, your shining sand
