Roropau from Hote' Hote' by Charles Maimarosia
Roropau is a thousands of years old Are’ Are’ traditional poem.
Parents would put their little baby on their lap and place their hands around their little one’s forehead and start moving the baby’s body up and down like a roller coaster ride. The baby’s whole body will be moving up and down and the parent will say the Roropau poem, in a few seconds the baby will go to sleep straight away.
Are’ Are’ people know these words by heart because once upon time they too were on the roller coaster ride.
