Original text:

Lift up your head
to the rising sun,
Bahamaland;

March on to glory
your bright banners
waving high.

See how the world
marks the manner
of your bearings!

Pledge to Excel
through love and unity.

pressing forward,
march together
to a common loftier goal;

Steady sunward,
tho\' the weather
hide the wide and treachrous shoal.

Lift up your head
to the rising sun, Bahamaland,

\'Til the road you\'ve trod
lead unto your God,
March On, Bahamaland.

Translation :

Lift your head to the rising sun, Bahamaland;
Onward to glory, Your bright banner bearing high before you.
See how the world rewards you for it!
Vow to excel through love and unity.
Pressing forward, march towards the common high goal;
Face the sun at all times, even when the weather hides the great, treacherous shoals.
Lift your head to the rising sun, Bahamaland;
Until the path you have taken leads you before your God;
Forward, Bahamaland!
