Lyrics
[Intro]
Oooooohhh…
Mountain queen…
warrior queen…
[Verse 1]
High above the mountain rain
Nanny stood against the chains
Fearless heart and eyes of fire
Leading people ever higher
British soldiers searched the land
Still they couldn’t make her stand
Freedom lived inside her veins
Echoing through hills and plains
[Chorus]
Queen Nanny hear our prayer tonight
Guide your people with your light
Through the valleys through the pain
Let Jamaica rise again
Smokey Gwallaz sing her name
Gwallaz Radio spread the flame
[Verse 2]
Drums were beating in the night
Calling warriors to the fight
Maroon soldiers standing tall
Refusing ever to fall
Children hiding in the trees
Freedom floating in the breeze
Every battle every scar
Made Jamaica who we are
[Bridge]
Ohhhh…
The mountains still remember
Every prayer she made
The rivers still are singing
Of the price our heroes paid
[Verse 3]
Now her spirit walks beside
Every Jamaican worldwide
From Bronx New York to countryside
Queen Nanny still our guide
Smokey Gwallaz raise the sound
Let the roots shake every town
Tasha AI hold the key
To preserve our history
[Final Chorus]
Queen Nanny hear our prayer tonight
Guide your people with your light
Black green gold forever wave
For the strong and for the brave
Gwallaz Radio worldwide
Keeping all the roots alive
Jamaica standing proud and free
For eternity
[Outro]
Queen Nanny hear our prayer tonight
Guide your people with your light
Black green gold forever wave
For the strong and for the brave
