Vanuatu: Carol Aru
Where is the Ni-Vanuatu Girl?
Where is the Ni-Vanuatu girl?
Sitting near granny
listening to dekudekuni
weaving baskets and mats
Where is the Ni-Vanuatu girl?
Holding the coconut broom
sweeping the floor
touching the dirt with bare hands
Where is the Ni-Vanuatu girl?
Tendering the garden all day long
grating the coconut
cooking the simbora
Where is the Ni-Vanuatu girl?
Playing the kurukuru duele
singing tutu tutu gwao
sitting quietly on a mat
