Glide along Glamorgan's Coast, Tobago
A Nation New Is Born
By G. Carlton Sampson
Palm-trees sway your crowns
Immortelle, frangipani, poui
Put on your floral gowns
Make gay the roadsides and the hills
Independence our people fills
A nation new is born.
You local birds pour forth your songs
Oh Semp and Acravat make glee!
You Bluebirds chirp, Hummingbird Birds hum
Sing out O Keskidee!
Make gay the roadsides and hills
A nation new is born!
Calypsonians sing an anthem
Of your sunny land and seas
Steelbandsmen beat out a road-march new,
About our tropical trees
Make gay the roadsides and hills
Independence our people fills
A nation new is born!
Trinidad and Tobago
Show forth your spirit of glee
Trinidad and Tobago
Your people shall be free
Leap to the road-march
Shout to the hills
For independence our country fills
A nation new is born.
Hail the sun rise, blessed morn
Whereon new hopes and joys are born
Of mixed and varied peoples
Determined to be one.
Sing out your praise O people free
With chimes and joyous revelry
For independence our country fills
Our nation new is born.
