My island lies o’er the ocean;
My island lies o’er the ocean;
Like a wreath of flowers upon the sea;
Like a wreath of flowers upon the sea;
With a light of Mekar from far above;
With a light of Mekar from far above;
Shining with the brilliance of rays of life;.
Shining with the brilliance of rays of life;.
Our Father’s wondrous creation;
Our Father’s wondrous creation;
Bequeathed to us, our Motherland;
Bequeathed to us, our Motherland;
I’ll never leave my dear home sweet home;
I’ll never leave my dear home sweet home;
God of our forefathers protect and bless forever Marshall Islands.
God of our forefathers protect and bless forever Marshall Islands.
