Barbuda Lullaby Lyrics. An original lullaby inspired by Barbuda’s Frigate Bird Sanctuary, home to one of the largest colonies of frigatebirds in the world. The sanctuary sits within Codrington Lagoon and is thought to hold one of the largest frigatebird colonies anywhere in the Western Hemisphere, with males putting on a striking display each breeding season, inflating a bright red throat pouch to attract a mate. Here you will find the lyrics, meaning, and chords.
