David Rudder song

here you are
Rally Round the West Indies (David Rudder)
For ten long years
We ruled the cricket world
Now the rule seems coming to an end
But down here
Just a ***** in the armour
Is enough, enough to lose a friend
Some of the old generals have retired and gone
And the runs don't come by as they did before
But when the Toussaints go the Dessalines come
We've lost the battle but yet we will win the war
Chorus:
Rally, rally round the West Indies
Now and forever
Rally, rally round the West Indies
Never say never
Pretty soon the runs are going to flow like water
Bringing so much joy to every son and daughter
Say we're going to rise again like a raging fire
As the sun shines you know we gonna take it higher
Rally, rally round the West Indies
Now and forever
Rally, rally round the West Indies
Way Down Under a warrior falls
Michael Holding falls in the heat of the battle
"Michael shoulda left long time!"
I heard an angry brother shout
Caribbean man, that, that, that is the root of our trouble
In these tiny theatres of conflict and confusion
Better known as the isles of the West Indies
We already know who brought us here
And who created this confusion
So I'm begging, begging my people please
Chorus
Now they are making restrictions and laws to spoil our beauty
But in the end we shall prevail
This is not just cricket, this thing goes beyond the boundary
It's up to you and me to make sure that they fail
Soon we must take a side or be lost in the rubble
In a divided world that don't need islands no more
Are doomed forever to be at somebody's mercy?
Little keys can open up mighty doors
Chorusहोता है जो होना है ... वक़्त ही शायद खुदा है ...

The song is called Hoosay , but I couldn't find any lyrics ...
The mind is a wonderful thing... -
“Wear something red” was the popular cry
And like the pavements and streets
They were filled with envy
Because by morning light
They were covered with our blood
I tell you not one soul here escaped the frenzy
You know sometimes you're gambling king
And wild is the joker
And sometimes the sight of the moon
Just riles up the lost, the hungry, the mad
These are the troubled times
That we have down in Trinidad
Because under the crescent moon
And above the bloody asphalt
Strange dogs were barking deep in the night
Under the crescent moon
I say the drums were silent
But somehow the rhythm continued, oh what a sight
On the night of the day
It was the night of the day
It was the night that they say
That the martyrs died
Fame, yes we’re famous as hell
Why don’t you know we’re a star
At long last we have made it
Star, like that star in the moon
Shining over the tomb
Dance the moon, you can’t ‘fraid it
Come on, dance brother dance
For death is your drummer
Prance sister prance, your future’s at stake
Jump high jump low, but this Hosay will take place
Because under the crescent moon
And above the bloody asphalt
Strange dogs were barking deep in the night
Under the crescent moon
I say the drums were silent
But somehow the rhythm continued
Oh what a sight
On the night of the day
It was the night of the day
It was the night that they say
That the martyrs died
The power and the glory is so close at hand
But the beast he was lurking
For he too sits in the wings
So when we searched for the moon
All we saw were the vultures
But then a chosen people never worry ‘bout these things
So the roll of the tassa
Began to sound like the rhythm of bullets
And the thundering boom bass
Well that was a bomb
In this Moslem time
When the Hosay is number one
Under the crescent moon
And above the bloody asphalt
Brotherman strange dogs were barking deep in the night
Under the crescent moon
I say the drums were silent
But somehow the rhythm continued, oh what a sight
On the night of the day
It was the night of the day
It was the night that they say
That the martyrs died
Not in this house, not in this Garden of Eden
Oh how we danced to the beat of this lovely lie
Until a man opened a door
And showed us our other side
And all our Mecca’d illusions
Walked right on by
Now Trini know what is uzi diplomacy
Now Trini know what is SLR love
In these troubled times
Under the stars above
Under the crescent moon
And above the bloody asphalt
Strange dogs were barking deep in the night
Under the crescent moon
I say the drums were silent
But somehow the drumming continued, oh what a sight
On the night of the day
It was the night of the day
Oh the night when they say
That the magic diedहोता है जो होना है ... वक़्त ही शायद खुदा है ...

Master..I bow in thy presence
