@hylozoik Claudio Veeraragoo is the author & compositor of this brilliant piece of Séga. Along with Jean-Claude Gaspard amongst others, Claudio Veeraragoo is a legendary artist in Mauritius, known for numerous brilliant and timeless songs (Bhai Aboo par exemple).
Search "Claudio - Ambalaba" on youtube to come across the original piece. Credits to "rn019" too for sharing such a rich collection of Mauritian Séga.

@Arratoiia It's MAURITIUS and in French, it's ÎLE MAURICE. This island was first named Mauritius by the Dutch in honor of their statehouder, prince Mauritz of Nassau and during the french colonization, it was named Isle de France and thereafter during the british colony, it was renamed Mauritius.

@Arratoiia L'ile Maurice n'est pas un territoire, c'est un pays independant :)
Mauritius isn't a French territory, it's an independent country.

This is an adaptation of the sega song Embas labas by Maxime le Forestier who visited mauritius in those years. This adaptation is well known all over european french countries and is still frequently played on radio - This reminds me of Home embas-làbas sweet little usland of mine...

@hylozoik this song is a "sega" of veerraragoo, traditional style from "île Saint-Maurice" (a french territory)
Maxime le forestier was changed the lyrics from the original , its talking about a man who love a girl but she cheat him , wheras he keep her love
ps : Sorry for my bad English ...
