Oh Christopher, brave Christopher how did you spend your life
Across the seas and oceans wide amidst chaos and strife
You stumbled into a new world upon your wooden ship
What a surprise it was to learn this was no Asia trip !
And thus it was so long ago this land of ours was found
When the Spanish came to conquer and rule all on the ground
Now that is how it did begin in fourteen-ninety-two
Today we owe Columbus all our love and huge thank you !
