Anosy is a region of Madagascar located along the south-eastern coast of the country, with the name "Anosy" meaning island(s) in Malagasy.
Due initially to its strategic importance, Anosy has been a crossroads for the Malagasy and the rest of the world over the last 500 years. In the 1500s it served as a stopping point for European ships traveling to and from India, and in the mid-1600s it was the location of an early French colonial port in the Indian Ocean. The region was part of the Merina Kingdom for much of the 1800s and part of the French colony of Madagascar from the late-1800s to 1960. Its exports have included human slaves (shipped to Réunion, Mauritius and the US in the 1700s), live cattle (exported to Réunion for almost 300 years), natural rubber, graphite, uranothorite, lobster, sapphires, and, in the last five years, ilmenite. Due to its biodiversity and natural beauty, efforts commenced in the 1980s to promote environmental conservation and tourism in the region.
Anosy is a region in southeastern Madagascar. It borders Androy region in west, Atsimo-Andrefana in north-west, Ihorombe in north and Atsimo-Atsinanana in north-east. This region, covering 25,731 km2 (9,935 sq mi), about the size of the US State of Vermont, the island of Cyprus or the nation of Israel, runs from approximately Manantenina in the northeast corner of the region, west to Ranomafana, west to the Mandrare river. The distance from Manantenina at the northern edge of Anosy to the Mandrare river at the south is almost 150 km. "Anosy" means island or islands in Malagasy. Some[who?] argue anosy is named after the island in the Fanjahira (now named Efaho) river where the Zafiraminia first settled when they arrived in this region in the 16th century, while others[who?] argue it means "land of the islands" because of the large amount of water in this region. During the rainy season, the Efaho valley floods, creating many temporary islands.
Hace mucho tiempo no me
Enamoraba de unos ojos tan bonitos
Comunes de lozano brillo
Era lo que menos en mi plan estaba
Aunque te admito que a veces soñaba
Con la belleza de tu mirada
Quiero llevar el rirmo de tu corazón
Para bailar entre los dos esta canción
La verdad, me estoy volviendo a enamorar
La verdad, quiero que sepas que
Lo que yo siento por ti, es amor
Ganas que me hacen nutrir, el corazón
Droga que me hace inmune, ante el dolor
Gotas de agua dulce, rayo de sol
Lo que yo siento por ti, es amor
Ganas que me hacen nutrir, el corazón
Droga que me hace inmune, ante el dolor
Gotas de agua dulce, rayo de sol
Llevame, de ser preciso, por la semblanza de tu sombra
Yo se que tu prendes la luz y en mi vida te asomas
Como las blancas palomas, cuando la plaza se toman
Con vuelo inmortal
Quiero llevar el ritmo de tu corazón
Para bailar entre los dos esta canción
La verdad, me estoy volviendo a enamorar
La verdad, quiero que sepas que
Lo que yo siento por ti, es amor
Ganas que me hacen nutrir, el corazón
Droga que me hace inmune, ante el dolor
Gotas de agua dulce, rayo de sol
Lo que yo siento por ti, es amor
Ganas que me hacen nutrir, el corazón
Droga que me hace inmune, ante el dolor
Gotas de agua dulce, rayo de sol
Es lo que siento por tí
Es lo que siento por tí
