 Thank you to Mauritian Poet.Translator Vatsala Radhakeesoon for publishing one of my poems into Mauritian Kreol.


Poem by Linda Imbler

Mauritian Kreol translation by Vatsala Radhakeesoon


Crystal Ships 


The sea splatters its foam

like pearls for which divers dive.

Salt that could rust ships

gives life, under the waters blue. 

Living creatures act as fathomable archangels

above the bones of crystal ships.

And all are protected by God.


Bato Kristal

Lamer zet so lekim
kouman perl seki bann plonzer rode.
Disel ki kapav rouy bann bato
donn lavi, ofon lamer (dilo ble).
Bann kreatir vivan azir kouma bann arkanz normal
lor tou parti ki zwenn bann bato kristal.
Ek zot tou proteze par Bondie.
