Land of Sea and Sun Lyrics

I want to wake up on an island

With a thousand ivory beaches

And a majesty that reaches

To the verdant jungle highland

I want to wake up with a smile and

Hear the waves out on the sea

And the song of the coquí

It's beauty cannot be outdone

It is the land of sea and sun

That is where I long to be

I want to wake up with the sunrise

Feel the sand between my toes

And the salt air in my nose

As the golden rays fill my eyes

Let my dreams be actualized

Iguanaboína hear my plea

Take me far across the sea

Until I land in Old San Juan

In the land of sea and sun

That is where I long to be

I want to wake in the rainforest

I want to climb the highest pico

And look down on Puerto Rico

Take in the view that lies before us

I want to hear the jungle chorus

Hear the parrots in the trees

As they sing their song for me

I'll listen til the day is done

In the land of sea and sun

That is where I long to be

I want to wake up under starlight

Hear the singing of ponceñas

And the music of la plena

Let the bembé last the whole night

I wish to be there with all my might

In the arms of family

In the city by the sea

If there's an equal I've found none

It is the land of sea and sun

That is where I long to be
