《Island in the Sun》歌词

[00:00:00] Island in the Sun - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)

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

[00:00:08] Where my people have toiled since time begun

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

[00:00:20] Her shores will always be home to me

[00:00:26] Oh, island in the sun

[00:00:30] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:00:34] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:00:38] Of your forest, waters, your shining sand

[00:00:48] As morning breaks the heaven on high

[00:00:52] I lift my heavy load to the sky

[00:00:58] Sun comes down with a burning glow

[00:01:02] Mingles my sweat with the earth below

[00:01:07] Oh, island in the sun

[00:01:11] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:01:16] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:01:20] Of your forest, waters, your shining sand

[00:01:30] I see woman on bended knee

[00:01:34] Cutting cane for her family

[00:01:39] I see man at the water side

[00:01:43] Casting nets at the surging tide

[00:01:49] Oh, island in the sun

[00:01:53] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:01:57] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:02:01] Of your forest, waters, your shining sand

[00:02:12] I hope the day will never come

[00:02:15] That I can't awake to the sound of drum

[00:02:20] Never let me miss carnival

[00:02:24] With calypso songs philosophical

[00:02:30] Oh, island in the sun

[00:02:34] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:02:39] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:02:42] Of your forest, waters, your shining sand
