Mangunde Poetry

Father Samora Moises Machel

Father Samora, always your name lives in Mozambican's memory;

For your big power,

For your lovely ideas,

For your big courage,

Tonight we are true Mozambicans.

Father Samora, always your name lives in Mozambican's memory;

For your powerful voice,

For your love with Mozambicans,

Our force lives in Mozambicans,

The slavery is finished.

Father Samora, always your name lives in Mozambican's memory;

In spite of your absence,

Your ideas live in Mozambicans.

Father Samora, yesterday, today and tomorrow,

You are always our father.

Peace Corps

The Peace Corps English Club is my father;

I know that you are my identity because

When I listen to you talk about English

I remember the Peace Corps.

Peace Corps when I listen to you talk about Peace Corps

I think of the teachers that taught me like Natalia, Vanessa,

Who are now in America, Bau from Buzi, Tim and Ian that are now in Mangunde.

I know that English is not exactly my language,

But I'm proud of you, Peace Corps,

For making me a friend of English.

So, now, congratulations to everyone who helped me

Speak English.
