Wielding his willowed sword


THE EDITOR: He is the crown prince of Port-of-Spain and a gallant warrior at that Brian Lara his name cricket his game some say he was born to bat.


He wrote the book how to cut and hook to bowlers his bat seems broad


A bowler’s disaster, a blaster, a master wielding his willowed sword


With innings of gold, he conquered the world the mighty prince of Port-of-Spain


The world love, cricket, when he’s in de wicket an dem bowlers prayin’ for rain


Dis West Indian to de bone, standin’ alone


the highest scorer in the game


His battin’ is a joy, this Trini home boy


Brian Charles Lara is his name


Oh come let’s honour this West Indian warrior and wipe the sweat from his brow


The best by test, he is the latest the greatest


"take a bow Brian, take a bow!"
