Ah,
yes,
the whole population of our little nation is not a lot.
But oh, what a mixture of races and culture.
That's what we've got.
Still no major indifference of race,
color,
religion,
or finance.
It's amazing to you,
I'm sure,
we didn't get independence before,
which means Trinidad and Tobago will always live on.
Colonialism gone.
Our nation is born, everybody.
We will follow our leaders.
They always do their best.
Oh, yes, we want to achieve.
We're going to aspire.
We're bound to be a success.
Ah,
it is a miracle all these different people can dwell so well.
You see,
we are educated to love and forget hatred.
You know, you know it so.
You people who are foreign,
I've got a message to give you when you go in.
Spread the word anywhere you pass.
Tell the world there's a modern nation at last,
which means Trinidad and Tobago will always live on.
Colonialism gone.
Our nation is born.
We will follow our leaders.
They always do their best.
We want to achieve.
I myself will aspire.
We're bound to be a success.
The
revenue we make from oil and the peach lake is great,
but we,
we got cocoa and coca,
banana and sugar, coconut,
citrus.
We may be small, but we're wealthy.
Pong for pong,
we'll beat New York City.
We got beaches and hotels built by Hilton.
Our nation is second
to anyone.
Now, where you talking?
Trinidad and Tobago will always live on.
Colonialism
gone.
Our nation is born.
We go follow our leaders.
They always do their best.
In order
to achieve,
you got to aspire and we're bound to be a success.
You may not believe this,
but we didn't achieve this with floods of blood.
It is leaders like
Butler Cipriani and the doctor,
they fight for what is right.
So now I'm congratulating all our
leaders from the present back to the beginning.
They have fought.
Now the battle is won.
Thanks for a good job and well done everybody.
Trinidad and Tobago will always live on.
Colonialism gone.
Our nation is born.
We go follow our leaders.
They always do their best.
In order to achieve,
I know we got to aspire and we're bound to be a success.
