Love Your Home Town

We love our home town! We were born to be Thai,
And wherever we live we are Thai.
Please love your home town.

We are the people of Baan Ao Por
And our pride in our home runs clear to the core.
We may be poor but we’re proud of our home.
Our resources are few, please don’t bring them low -
Please help to preserve, to nurture and grow.

Crab and fish and shrimp and shells, all are dwindling now.
Don’t dump your waste in our home; please be told
That we have a deep dream to work at here,
And the Sea still waits for the dream to be clear.
Please help us to turn the dross into gold.

We beg all you ladies and gentlemen, too,
To make our Sea healthy for us and for you.
We must start today the future to sow;
Please help to preserve, to nurture and grow.
