Английский текст гимна
- O, Land of the free by the Carib Sea,
- Our manhood we pledge to thy liberty!
- No tyrants here linger, despots must flee
- This tranquil haven of democracy.
- The blood of our sires, which hallows the sod,
- Brought freedom from slavery oppression’s rod,
- By the might of truth and the grace of God,
- No longer shall we be hewers of wood.
Хор: (припев повторяется и после второго куплета)
- Arise! ye sons of the Baymen’s clan,
- Put on your armour, clear the land!
- Drive back the tyrants, let despots flee -
- Land of the Free by the Carib Sea!
- Nature has blessed thee with wealth untold,
- O’er mountains and valleys where prairies roll;
- Our fathers, the Baymen, valiant and bold
- Drove back the invader; this heritage hold
- From proud Rio Hondo to old Sarstoon,
- Through coral isle, over blue lagoon;
- Keep watch with the angels, the stars and moon;
- For freedom comes tomorrow’s noon.
