Mauritian Poem |

Brute brown raging water
From torrential rain worse ever
Washing away all on 30th march
Took us by surprise quite fast
The deluge brought bitter desperation
Causing panic by its massive destruction
Stealing oxygen from the lungs of many
And stripping us of tranquility
The nation’s natural disaster tragedy
The sign of man’s vulnerable frailty
Brought great Mauritian solidarity
To the families in terrible difficulty
The city turned into a muddy pool
A scar not to be forgotten so soon
Can also be a harbinger of worse
If Climate change is not reversed.

Mauritian Poem |

Red
The struggle for freedom and independence
Was boiling in kewal’s veins
Looking in the eyes of
The ordinary men and women
Slaves of capitalism
Slaves of poverty
Slaves of exploitation
Gave him strength
To build our future
Gave him strength
To give us
Freedom
Power
Rights
Liberty
Blue
The Indian Ocean
Where this magnificent pearl floats
In the high or low tides
It will survive day and night
Yellow
The light of peace
The light of justice
The light of liberty
Let it shine
Forever and ever
Green
We shall not forget
Our key to our economy
Our sugarcane fields
That surrounds us in
Every corner that we roam
Red. Blue. Yellow. Green
Our flag will fly high in the Mauritian sky
Forever and ever
With pride and honour
