COME BACK HOME
By Lord Kitchener

Aye Mama, ay yay yaye, Mama,
I want to come home see you
No money here, no garden, me fear
So darling, what shall I do?

Come along my boy, everything is changed
You ent got to beseech nor to bow
This is just the time you must come back home
Trinidad is independent now.

Me feel so nice like Paradise
To hear such wonderful news
Yes, my Mam, before me come
Me have to buy one brown shoes.

Come along my boy, everything is changed
You ent got to beseech nor to bow
This is just the time you must come back home
Trinidad is independent now.

That blessed ------, the land of Isle
A place that no man can stand
It make me glad, oh, sweet Trinidad
The country where I was born.

Come along, my boy, everything is changed
You ent got to beseech nor to bow
This is just the time you must come back home
Trinidad is independent now.

We always rich with island pitch
And plenty yam and cocoa
We now --------- big like New York
We should be freed long ago.

Come along, my boy, everything is changed
You ent got to beseech nor to bow
This is just the time you must come back home
Trinidad is independent now.

"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!
