We were born where the ocean sings
Where the palms swayed in the wind's wings
One day they said you must go
Leaving behind the only home we know
Uprooted, but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
Scattered far but our roots run deep
The island's call in our dreams we keep
They took the land, but not our soul
The island makes our spirit whole
Uprooted, but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
We were born where the ocean sings
Where the palms swayed in the wind's wings
One day they said you must go
Leaving behind the only home we know
Uprooted but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
Uprooted but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory

We were born where the ocean sings
Where the palms swayed in the wind's wings
One day they said you must go
Leaving behind the only home we know
Uprooted, but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
Scattered far but our roots run deep
The island's call in our dreams we keep
They took the land, but not our soul
The island makes our spirit whole
Uprooted, but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
We were born where the ocean sings
Where the palms swayed in the wind's wings
One day they said you must go
Leaving behind the only home we know
Uprooted but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
Uprooted but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
Where the palms swayed in the wind's wings
One day they said you must go
Leaving behind the only home we know
Uprooted, but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
Scattered far but our roots run deep
The island's call in our dreams we keep
They took the land, but not our soul
The island makes our spirit whole
Uprooted, but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
We were born where the ocean sings
Where the palms swayed in the wind's wings
One day they said you must go
Leaving behind the only home we know
Uprooted but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
Uprooted but never broken
Chagossian hearts words unspoken
They took our land but we are free
The island lives in our memory
