1. Strophe
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.
1. Refrain
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.
2. Strophe
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.
2. Refrain
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.
2. Strophe
I see woman on bended knee cutting cane for her family.
I see man at the water-side,
casting nets at the surfing tide
3. Refrain
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.
3. Strophe
I hope the day will never come
that I can't awake to the sound of drum.
Never let me miss carnival,
with calypso songs, philosophical.
4. Refrain
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.

PFOTEN OHNE NAMEN
ist ein gemeinnütziger Tierschutzverein. Wir möchten das Leid namenloser Tiere etwas lindern.
Wir kümmern uns mit finanzieller Unterstützung um herrenlose und/oder verletzte Tiere im In-und Ausland.
Vor allem möchten wir Straßenhunden mit Futter, tierärztlicher Versorgung in unserem erbauten Paradies helfen.
Dies möchten wir mit Spenden, Pfotenpatenschaften, Namenspatenschaften, Impfpatenschaften, Kastrationspatenschaften sowie Verkäufen auf Flohmärkten und online erreichen.
Wir freuen uns über jede Unterstützung!
