Verse 1
Sweet Pan, ah
musical expression
Ah brand new art, to the world was
given
Ah oil drum,
Now in the hearts of
every man,
Yes we talking pan
Pan, yes sweet sweet pan
Even the ones, who jump sway or
listen,
Enchanted, by the magic of steelpan,
European or Asian, yes we talking
pan
Chorus
When ah hear this
melody for the carnival
Sounding sweeter jamming in ah
steelband
Thanking all them pioneers
For their
devotion
Feel so proud to be ah
Trinbagonian
Orchestration, ah love the jammmm-am
I can’t help mehself I just wah
hear pan.
Verse 2
Sweet Pan, ah
beautiful invention,
To all those,
Who struggled for
recognition,
And acceptance, facing social
ostracism,
To those Trinbagonians
Who has brought
the pan
To its present position,
We salute you, for taking that
stand,
For the magic of steelband,
Yes we
talking pan
Chorus

Verse 3
Can, you
understand,
Why people flock,
To the birthplace
of the steeldrums,
Captivated, to the sensuous rhythms,
Of the steelbands,
Africans, and Indians, diverse
races
Brought here to this land
Contributed, to the birth of the
steeldrums
Worthy recognition, yes we talking
pan
Chorus (x2)
(I can’t help mehself
I just wah hear pan) x2
