HOME, SWEET HOME
By The Mighty Terror

Hallelujah, I come back home
Hallelujah, no more to roam.
I live in England thirteen years
And many days I shedding tears
Now I back home to rest my bones.

Home sweet home, home sweet home
There is no other place like home
No matter wherever you roam
Make up your mind and come back home.

I’ve been weeping both day and night
I’ve been pining for my delight
I love my crab and callaloo
And my favourite cascadou
Now ah back home, I crush their bones.

Home sweet home, home sweet home
There is no other place like home
No matter wherever you roam
Make up your mind and come back home.

When I study freedom at home
I often wondered what made me roam
I had to fight with all my might
To come from darkness into light
Hallelujah, I won the fight.

Home sweet home, home sweet home
There is no other place like home
No matter wherever you roam
Make up your mind and come back home.

Trinidadians, take my advice
You are born in a paradise
Don’t let people mislead you
For you may have to shed tears too
Now I’m back home to stay with you.

Home sweet home home sweet home
There is no other place like home
No matter wherever you roam
Make up your mind and come back home.

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Mighty Terror.




"Trinidadians, take my advice

Don’t let people mislead you

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
