The Rhythm Of The Caribbean Sea
The music of ebb and flow
The soca and calypso
Boats shiver with goose bumps
With anchored chains
Yachts rowing away
Along ports licking the land
The hulls cast shadows on the thirsty lands
The archipelagos mirror a greenish chain
Of mountains and volcanoes
The zouk and ringbang
The sounds of the bands
The dub and reggae
Good music to hear
And when the day breaks
The music of J’ouvert
The tabla
The waves displaying drama
The greenish blue water sparkles
With every breeze the whisper of a melody
With every gust the quarrel of chants
The saliva of the islets on the sands
The tune of the water world
A musical concert beneath seagulls
With musical notes from beaches
The grasslands of greenish blue waters
Hum the hymns of the necklace of archipelagos
Like steelband and chutney
Rhythm of the Caribbean Sea
