Haïti, mon pays wounded mother I'll never see
Ma famille set me free throw my ashes into the sea
Mes cousins jamais nés hantent les nuits des Duvalier
Rien n'arrête nos esprits, 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-nés forment une armée, soon we will reclaim the earth
All the tears and all the bodies bring about our second birth
Haïti, never free, n'aie pas peur de sonner l'alarme
Tes enfants sont partis in those days their blood was still warm
