WELCOME TO T&T
By Ramdeen Maharaj a.k.a Falco (2012)

Welcome, welcome to T&T - the land of soca and chutney
Where everybody live happy, unite like on big family
You'll find a Chinee woman marry an Indian man
You'll find an Indian woman marry an African.

You will find love, you will find joy
You will have fun under the sun
You will make friends, it will be fine
Yes, you would have a real good time.

A hot doubles will start your day
Pelau will take your breath away
A bake and shark, you'll want to stay
You'll want a roti everyday
Maracas beach and our sexy ladies, they will blow your mind.

Welcome welcome to Chaguanas where you will shop until you drop
Then take a trip to the country, so many cultures you would see
You will love the parang people when you go to Paramin
And meet the Amerindians - a nation tradition.

You will find love, you will find joy
You will have fun under the sun
You will make friends, it will be fine
Oh, you would have a real good time.

Respect every religion, Hindu, Islam and Christian
Take part in all celebration, never discriminate no one
Though we have problems, we always resolve them among ourselves
And when election time is here and racial tension fill the air
A party get their victory, we come back like a family
And everybody living like one big family
Yes, everybody liming like one big family.

You will find love, you will find joy
You will have fun under the sun
You will make friends, it will be fine
Yes, you would have a real good time.

We celebrate at Carnival, no one can miss this bacchanal
When soca music hit the street and people moving to the beat
When masqueraders parade through the city, steelpan fill the air
And every nation meet as one under the warm Caribbean sun
The rich the poor, the old, the young
The black, the white 'til morning light
And everybody living like one big family
Yes, everybody liming like one big family.

You will find love you will find joy
You will have fun under the sun
You will make friends, it will be fine
Yes, you would have a real good time.

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Ramdeen Maharaj.

"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!
