By looking at your picture Is like you are still alive Your face is still fresh in my mind Always proud to tell your suffering And your moments of joy Beside your bad side... ...you have consol alot You've known pain And you have past through alot Of difficulties Beside all your default... ...this is not important Because you were the the hero... ...the icon That unique singer that keeps us All on our feet Your 'bonm' and your 'zez' Was your two best friend When you were on stage... ...no one gets in your way Your mission wasn't accomplish yet But our God needed you The road that you have started I am following But it doesn't stop there... ...I will pass it with my children tomorrrow That it won't lose its value And in a way that you will Always be present... ...and forever live among us Dedicated to my great-grand-father that was an important person in the culture and part the heritage of Seychelles, who died when i was very little.
