Grenada, Grenada, Land of Ours!
Where our
parents and fore-parents laboured
for many long and painful hours
the Land of our forefathers
the Land that keeps striving
with vibrant , beautiful colors
with only rain and sun to help
grow such beautiful flowers
As
Grenadians out here, we should be proud
To know this Land... She is ours
She is ours... She belongs to us
Remember, Mother Grenada.
She gave
birth to us as she did to our Forefathers
She pampers us, she nourishes us
She gives us strength and watches us grow
She educates us and sets us free
So each one of us could be what we want to be
Let`s not
take Mama for granted
We should be there for her when it`s most wanted
She gives us her heart... She gives us her soul
Now it`s time to console
It is our
Mother Grenada she is growing old
In our hands she should be held
Let us give Grenada what she wants
That love that is so true to her
Not the colors that separate us from her
But the love of her children joining their hearts
And hands together to rebuild Mother Grenada
