\u00a0<\/strong>Mauritius: Beauty is all you are!<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lost amidst the Indian Ocean<\/p>\n

Lies a little piece of heaven<\/p>\n

A haven and a melting pot<\/p>\n

Of culture and traditions<\/p>\n

Under the Azure blue skies<\/p>\n

And the shining sun<\/p>\n

Mauritius, a Gem<\/p>\n

Harbouring the most beautiful secrets of the world<\/p>\n

The people living in a harmonious accord<\/p>\n

Sharing and caring for their neighbours<\/p>\n

Without giving thought about the race, colour or creed<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s not it<\/p>\n

Scenic landscapes adorned<\/p>\n

By mother nature\u2019s most cherished flora<\/p>\n

Home to a plethora of endemic fauna<\/p>\n

The tropical breeze and warmth<\/p>\n

Make the island the paradise it is<\/p>\n

Mauritius, no word is apt enough to describe your magnificence<\/p>\n

Your splendour<\/p>\n

Your nobility<\/p>\n

Blessed is the soul born on your soil<\/p>\n

Mauritius, O Motherland<\/p>\n

Beauty is all you are!<\/p>\n
