諾魯的詩歌

諾魯人通常都是天生的歌唱家,舞蹈家,藝術家。他們幾乎個個有優美的嗓音。常常歌唱,心情愉快。記下一首優美的諾魯歌詞和一首描寫諾魯的雅詩:

Pleasant Island

The rose that I love, no one can compare

Sent by a dove, it’s fragrance so rare

Keep calling me home, whenever I roam

Back to my land of birth, the dearest place on earth (Chorus)

(Chorus)

Pleasant island, land of joy and peace

Love for you will never cease

I give to you my heart and my soul

And strive to conquer all, in answer to your call


My dreams all come true, when birds in their fold

Out of the blue, leave droppings of gold

Gay laughter and fun, under the sun

Prosperity unfold, with great happiness untold (Chorus)


My island of dream, my sweet paradise

Cast in a beam, of beauty she lies

My ancestral land, that firmly stands

In Faith and charity, the course of purity (Chorus)


My own dreary home, stand fast in the lord

We’ll overcome, if with one accord

Great sorrow and pain, will strike in vain

Blessings from day to day, forever come your way (Chorus x2)

Composed by Millicent Aroi


My Wish by Jane Resture


The frigate bird
The flying fish

It is time for us
To make a wish

And I wish for the sunrise
To be Beautiful each time
With days that are perfect
And nights so sublime

And I wish for the sunset
To be like a long red sail
Each and every day
And you and I will always
Stay

Whatever we wish
Will surely come true
And I wish for
Happiness
For me and you

And I wish for the world
To live in Peace
To live and love as one
To a simple beat

And I wish for us all
To have our lives full of
Love
Full of joy and
Happiness
And eternal love
