National Anthem of Trinidad and Tobago
Forged from the love of liberty
in the fires of hope and prayer,
With boundless faith in our destiny
We solemnly declare...
Side by side we stand
Islands of the blue Caribbean sea,
this our native land
we pledge our lives to thee...
Here every creed and race
finds an equal place
and may God bless our nation.
Here every creed and race
finds an equal place
and may God bless our nation.
The meaning of Trinidad and Tobago National Anthem is as follows:
The countrymen say that though they were ruled by the colonists and they were extorted to the last, they had achieved freedom with faith and courage. All of them stand united and are blessed by god so that they can face all hardships that come in their way. Discrimination on the basis of cast and creed will not exist in the society.
