 Tony Norwell - Beautiful Island Lyrics

Beautiful island - though yet I don't know you -

Your friends round the world, now, all of them tell

m14?2818j225915s??9.
Though still I've not yet set - one foot down upon you -

I've seen and heard so much - I might just as well.


Beautiful island, oh beautiful island -

May peace come unto you - swift as can be

Beautiful island, oh beautiful island -

May all of the world - then - stand up and see!



Beautiful island, you've shaken with sadness -

And scattered your children to far away lands.

And though they may now have - their new friends around them -

They still long for your people - to stand up and shake hands.



Beautiful island, you're now so much to me

So many I've known have called you their home.

Please dry all your tears now and stop the blood flowing -

And let no more of your children - leave you on your own.
