Lyrics:

Our island is a cocktail of Europe, Africa and Asia
The Indian Ocean, the palm trees, and the sun
Account for its beauty
It seems that in Mauritius
Time takes its time
And so does life
More than a million years

And it’s always summer…

In the daytime children are playing on the beaches
In the evening we go to the seaside to gaze in wonder
How the red sun sinks into the ocean
It seems that in Mauritius
Time takes its time
And so does life
More than a million years

And it’s always summer…

Di-di, di-di, di-di, di-di
Di-di, di-di, di-di, di-di
Di-di, di-di, di-di, di-di

People of different origins and cultures live here together peacefully
We will all play our part to preserve this precious gift
Our one and only Mauritius
Because in Mauritius
Time takes its time
And so does life
More than a million years

And it’s always summer…
