Harry Belafonte - Island In The Sun From Island In The Sun Lyrics

This is my island in the sun
where my people have toiled since time begun
I may sail on many a sea
her shores will always be home to me
Oh island in the sun
built 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
I lift my heavy load to the sky
sun comes down with a burning glow
mingles my sweat with the earthly low
Oh island in the sun
built to me by my father's hand
all my days I will sing in praise
of your forest waters
your shining sand
Solo
I see woman on bended knee
cutting cane for her family
I see man at the water-side
casting nets at the surfing tide
Oh island in the sun
built to me by my father's hand
all my days I will sing in praise
of your forest waters
your shining sand
I hope the day will never come
that I can't awake to the sound of drum
never let me miss carnaval
with calypso songs
philosophical.
Oh island in the sun
built to me by my father's hand
all my days I will sing in praise
of your forest waters
your shining sand
