(English Lyrics)
Saba, you rise from the ocean,
With Mountain and hillside so steep,
How can we reach you to greet you,
Isle of the sea, rough and deep.
Come, let us look at the rowers
with faces so placid and calm,
Guide us now safe through the breakers,
take us ashore without harm.
Chorus:
Saba, Oh Jewel most precious,
In the Caribbean sea.
Mem'ries will stay of thy beauty,
Though we may roam far from thee.
Saba, oh pearl of the ocean,
Friendly and lovely, though small,
Do not forget to be grateful,
To God the creator of all.
He in his goodness will guide you
and bless you in every part,
Making you always most precious
Saba, so dear to my heart.
Chorus:
Saba Eiland / Saba Island / Saba Insel / Isla de Saba / Ilha de Saba / L'ile de Saba / L'isola di Saba / Остров Саба / Wyspa Saba / サバ島 / Pulau Saba / Saba Adası / Ostrvo Saba / Ostrov Saba / Saba Sziget
