In the heart of Senegambia, where rivers embrace,
Cultures entwine, a vibrant tapestry of grace.
From the rhythms of the kora to the taste of jollof rice,
Unity in diversity, a bond that feels so nice.
The sabarr beats, the mbalax dances,
Football binds us together, winning become chances.
With shared histories and languages that flow,
Together we flourish, in harmony we grow.
In villages bustling, laughter fills the air,
A celebration of life, a love beyond compare.
From Marchè Sandaga to Marchè Serekunda, the price of fish is the same.
Our funeral is your cry, our tears your shame.
Senegal and The Gambia, hand in hand they stand,
A testament to friendship, a beautiful land. In the dance of the sun, where the ocean meets the shore,
Two nations united, their spirits forever soar.
From the whispers of the baobab to the call of the call-and-response,
A rich heritage flows, in every song and every glance.
The Gambian smiles, warm as the golden sand,
Senegal's embrace, a welcoming hand.
In the heart of Casamance, where the mangroves sway,
Bakau's nature's beauty thrives, in a vibrant display.
Together they weave stories of struggle and pride,
When The Gambia sneezes, Senegal is standing side by side.
From the Mandinka songs that echo through the night,
To the Wolof tales that dance in morning light,
Their laughter and their stories, like the rivers, entwine,
A chemistry of kinship, in every heart, they shine.
Note: On April 4, 2025, Senegal proudly celebrates its 65th Independence Day, honoring the resilience and bravery of its people in their fight for freedom from colonial rule. As the afternoon sun sets on this special day, the spirit of independence shines brightly in the hearts of all Senegambians. The poem is dedicated to all Senegambians.
