Poem : Ô conscience
OH
consciousness
OH
Conscience
Eliwa-Bendjè/ Gabon/ Afrik occupied,
Eliwa-Bendjè trampled,
Eliwa-Bendjè humiliated,
Eliwa-Bendjè bullied,
Eliwa-Bendjè depreciated,
Eliwa-Bendjè Martyred,
Eliwa-Bendjè raped,
Deported,
Eliwa-Bendjè despoiled,
Eliwa-Bendjè dominated
But
Eliwa-Bendjè
stands
Thanks to the conscience
Of its worthy and valiant sons,
As a bulwark
And ever sentinel.
Immortal
Soul Ôroungou! Gabonese!
African soul!
