Mache' Mwe Pou Lanme-a.....................(My Walk to the Beach)

Pwemye' nou mache' a chimen-an pa lafowe'-a
(First, we walked down a road through the forest.)
Nou pase' bo bef epi bo pak kouchen.
(We passed some cows and a pig farm)


Apwe' nou twavase' lawivye'-a, nou contine' mache'.
(After crossing a river, we continued hiking.)

Nou te ka tann so'n lanm lanme-a.
(we could hear the waves crashing.)

Apwe' nou wive' ek nou we' lanme'-a douvan nou!
(Then we came to an opening and could see the ocean right in front of us!)

Nou swef, kon sa nou twape' koko.

(We were thirsty, so we tried getting coconuts.)


Ek nou bwe' dlo koko-a.
(And then we drank the coconut water)

Nou kontine' mache'...
(We continued walking...)

Mwe' te ni an lot koko.

(I had another coconut)


Le nou gade' nate' i te bel.

(The views from the point were beautiful)
Osi nou we' siyez.

(We even found cactus)


Sa lans pitet ni lamn evek adan move' tan.

(This bay might be surfable with a storm approaching)


Apwe' sa, nou we' se mouton-la ek se kabwit-la te manje.
(Later on, we saw sheep and goats grazing.)


Ki le sole'-a desonn, nou we denye' a lanme'-a ek nou alle' kay nou.
(With the sun going down, we took one last look at the beach and headed home)

Sa joune' se'te' joune' mwe' pli me'ye' andidan Set Lici.
This was one of my best days in St. Lucia.
