Journey to Rocky Island: Love Amidst Storms and Seas
Lyrics
Going up on a mountain to sow a little cane
Expressing the intention to go up on a mountain to plant sugar cane.
See my candy darling my only Liza Jane
Referring to a beloved person, Liza Jane, as a sweet companion.
Dark clouds are rising it surely looks like rain
Indicating the presence of ominous signs, possibly troubles or challenges.
When it starts to falling down I'm coming home again
Anticipating difficulties but expressing the commitment to return home when challenges arise.
Wish I had a big black horse fast as he can be
Expressing a desire for a fast black horse to cover great distances quickly.
And when I miss that girl of mine I'd ride across the sea
Stating the intention to travel across the sea to be with a missed loved one.
Going to rocky island oh honey oh
Announcing the destination, "rocky island," with a sense of excitement or urgency.
See my candy darling darling you know I love her so

The waters may be roaring now but soon I will return
Acknowledging current challenges (roaring waters) but expressing confidence in returning.
If I should not come back to her the seas would rage and burn
Highlighting the significance of returning to the beloved person and the consequences if unable to do so.
Going to rocky island oh honey oh
Repeating the destination, "rocky island," with a possible sense of urgency or determination.
See my candy darling darling you know I love her so
Reaffirming love for the mentioned person, emphasizing its importance in the speaker's life.
