Arcade Fire - Haiti lyrics
[Arcade Fire - Haiti lyrics]
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 nuit's de Duvalier
Rien n'arrete nos esprit's
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
Wounded mother I’ll never see
Ma famille set me free
Throw my ashes into the sea
Mes cousins, jamais nés
Hantent les nuit's de Duvalier
Rien n'arrete nos esprit's
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
