Mi kadushi / My cacti

by Delno L.A. Tromp

Kadushi mi dushi
Lagá mi karisia bo un tiki
Maske ta djis ku wowo
Pa selebrá bo dulsura
I kon inkluso den sekura

Bo ta sigui dòrna nos lugá
Ku bo bèrde protehá
Ku yen di sumpiña pará.
Kadushi mi dushi
Ta’bo ta pinta nos paisahe
N’e bunitesa eksótiko
ku tur nos bishitantenan ta atmirá!

Cacti, my passion,
Allow me to caress you
Be it just by sight,
To celebrate your sweet might.
Despite all droughts you stand upright,
Garnishing our island in green,
Protected by many a defying thorn
Cacti, my passion,
Painting our landscape
into the outlandish site
That fills our visitors with delight.
