I settled in a small island

With limited land I know

But in my backyard

There is a volcano

It blasted ash and threw big stones

And poured out lava

From lava domes.

 

We ran to the North

Leaving the south

Cars screeching and beeping

People shouting and leaping

Help! Help us to get away

From my volcano

Until once again it is sleeping

 

But no matter where we go or what we do

Whether in Lookout or Rendez-vous

Ash from the volcano in my backyard

Would always

Find you.

 

Tourists come from far away

Like it’s a family fun day

To explore my volcano

Capture a mud or pyroclastic flow

That has been let go

By my great volcano.

 

And I cannot forget the bright glowing scenes

From volcano’s reaction

And our tourists’ attraction

Then, I am allowed

To feel PROUD !
