Principe Lullaby Lyrics. An original lullaby inspired by Principe, a UNESCO biosphere reserve of rainforest and volcanic peaks. Principe’s entire territory, land and surrounding sea, was declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 2012, and its isolation over millions of years has produced dozens of plant and bird species found nowhere else on Earth, on an island home to only around 7,000 people. Here you will find the lyrics, meaning, and chords.
