Island of Sorrows

[Verse]
Beneath the palms where the warm winds blow,
Where the ocean whispers tales of woe,
Our island's beauty hides the tears,
As conflict shattered all the years.

[Verse 2]
Barefoot paths we used to roam,
Now tread in silence, far from home,
The village square where laughter rang,
Left silent by a broken gang.

[Chorus]
Exiled from our paradise,
Lost to the waves, at a heavy price,
No more children’s songs at night,
In the Island of Sorrows, heart's delight.

[Verse 3]
Fires burned where flowers bloomed,
Joy replaced with tales of gloom,
Mountains high that kissed the sky,
Now cradle dreams where spirits lie.

[Bridge]
Echoes of a time so free,
Haunt the hearts of you and me,
In the distance, freedom calls,
But we remember the island's falls.

[Verse 4]
Beneath the stars, a distant shore,
We dream of days that are no more,
Each grain of sand a memory,
Of a land where we were free.
