atilla the hun - mr. nakivell's speech lyrics
[intro]
hand me the port_of_spain
to read mr. nakivell’s speech again
hand me the port_of_spain
to read mr. nakivell’s speech again
[verse 1]
replete with tact and sympathy
fair play and christian charity
we promise that whatever they do
trinidad will remember you
[verse 2]
imagine the moral courage of that man
in the legislative council, to stand
and give his opinion without no fear
in the midst of the members sitting there
to get on his feet and openly say
that the oppressed worker deserves more pay
we should erect right in this city
a monument to his memory
[verse 3]
there were many trinidadians that day
in the council, but they didn’t say
a word in defense of the working man
although they are natives of this irie land
they didn’t vote to argue or comment
but to blindly support the government
and nakivell, though not a trinidadian
fought for our emanc_p_tion
[verse 4]
he spoke feelingly and strikingly
logically and conscientiously
his diction was perfect, elocution great
to describe his speech, words are inadequate
he said, “we who plant the cane and dig the oil
and develop the estates with sweat and toil
while employers are living luxuriously
why should we die in misery?”
[verse 5]
his speech created a sensation
and was welcome by the population
there is a rumor he will be recalled
by the commissioners, he has been blackballed
if he’s a million miles oversea
beloved in all hearts, he’d ever be
for the entire multitude offers undying gratitude
