One Love

Countrymen, politicians, friends
your attention please!
It’s on us this paradise depends
Like the birds and bees
The creator in his wisdom and grace
Gave unto us this Eden lot
Where every race can find an equal place
In our Trinbago melting pot
We’ll share the oil from our Eden soil
Some for me, some for you,
For what God dictates no man can foil
Is, dey say, God is Trini too
So let’s turn away from the politics of race
For Trini pride knows no divide
“All ah we is one,” let’s all embrace
Together for ever side by side
Dis meltin pot ha to bubble forever and ever
One love is we gourmet choice
all ah we go keep de pot boiling together
Let’s have “One love” an rejoice
