Let us build a Nation Together [Song]

LET US BUILD A NATION TOGETHER
By Merchant

Now the election bacchanal die away,
In short, this is what I have to say
Let us forget spites and grudges and concentrate
Come, let us sit and try to relate
Because now, more than ever, we must show
Discipline, Tolerance and Production
To build a strong and better nation
I say that is the main foundation.

Chorus:
So, come let us work hand in hand
Because this is OUR land
Come, my brother, come my sister,
And let us build a nation together.

Remember the key to success is working hard
For our country, we must have regard
Forget all your differences, let we start to build
And onward to progress we surely will.
Because now, more than ever, we must show
Discipline, Tolerance and Production
To build a strong and better nation
I say that is the main foundation.

Chorus:
So, come let us work hand in hand
Because this is OUR land
Come, my brother, come my sister,
And let us build a nation together.

So much ah things that we need to see about
Surely I don't have to spell them out
'Cause you know as well as I do, the only way
Is putting more effort and less play.
Because now, more than ever, we must show
Discipline, Tolerance and Production
To build a strong and better nation
I say that is the main foundation.

Chorus:
So, come let us work hand in hand
Because this is OUR land
Come, my brother, come my sister,
And let us build a nation together.

This also goes for every Trinbagonian
Who gone to live in a foreign land
Now is the time to come home and do something
Instead of staying out dey and freezing
Because now, more than ever, we must show
Discipline, Tolerance and Production
To build a strong and better nation
I say that is the main foundation.

Chorus:
So, come let us work hand in hand
Because this is OUR land
Come, my brother, come my sister,
And let us build a nation together.

Come leh we build a nation together
I say, come leh we build a nation together
Come leh we build a nation together
I say, Come leh we build a nation together...

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Merchant!

"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!
