Haiti

LRC by Young & Stupid

Haiti, mon pays (Haiti, my country)
Wounded mother I'll never see
Ma famille(My family) set me free
Throw my ashes into the sea

Mes cousins jamais nes (My cousins, never born)
Hantent les nuits de Duvalier (Haunt the nights of Duvalier)
Rien n'arrete nos espirits (Nothing stops our spirits)
Guns can't kill what soldiers can't see
In the forest we are hiding
Unmarked graves where flowers grow
Hear the soldiers angry yelling
In the river we will go

Tous les morts-nes forment une armee (All the still-born children form an army)
Soon we will reclaim the earth
All the tears and all the bodies
Bring about our second birth

Haiti, never free
N'aie pas peur de sonner l'alarme (I'm not afraid to sound alarm)
Tes enfants sont partis (Your children left)
In those days their blood was still warm

-THE END-
