 Long time ago when 
I was a young boy
I saw that movie 
'Mutiny on the Bounty'
Starring my idol, 
Marlon Brando
And I felt a yearning for 
that great adventure
So many nights
I woke up out of a dream
A dream of blue seas, 
white sands 
Paradise birds, butterflies
And beautiful 
warm-hearted girls
Sun of Jamaica, 
the dreams of Malaika
Our love is my sweet memory
Sun of Jamaica, 
Blue Lady Malaika
Some day I'll return, 
wait and see
Walk in the sand
And l'm happy with you
We shall be loving and true
Oh I sure love Malaika
With all of my heart 
I will always
Be faithful and true, yeah true
But now as I grew older
This burning desire 
became so strong
That I bought 
a ticket to fly home
And then I found you
And we found an eternal 
love right from the beginning
Stars falling down from 
the sea of lagoon
The palms swaying 
under the moon
We were swimming out into 
the calm crystal sea
In that fateful night
I thought to myself
I'll do everything I can
Save up every dime
And one day I'll return
Come back home to you
And then I'll stay forever, 
forever Sun of Jamaica, 
the dreams of Malaika
Our love is my sweet memory
Sun of Jamaica, 
Blue Lady Malaika
Some day I'll return, 
wait and see
Walk in the sand
And l'm happy with you
We shall be loving and true
Oh I sure love Malaika
With all of my heart 
I will always
be faithful and true, yeah true
