Lyrics by: Eddy Francois

Neg anwo neg anwo neg anwo
Gade neg anba
Mizè yap pase, tribilasyon yap pase
Bay y’on chans oh ye ye
[2x]

Bay yon chans oh Simbi Ganga
Bay yon chans oh Simbi Makaya
Mezanmi pawòl la pale wi sevre

Neg anwo yo, neg anba yo
Gade mizè y’ap pase pou peyi m vanse
Mezanmi bay yon chans oh ye ye
[2x]

Oh oh oh oh oh oh ye ye (2x)

Neg anwo neg anwo neg anwo
Gade neg anba
Mizè yap pase, tribilasyon yap pase
Ba y’on chans oh ye ye
[2x]

Bay yon chans oh Simbi Ganga
Bay yon chans oh Simbi Makaya
Mezanmi pawòl la pale wi sevre

Neg anwo yo, neg anba yo
Gade mizè y’ap pase pou peyi m vanse
Mezanmi bay yon chans oh ye ye
[2x]

Neg anwo gade neg anba
Gade mizè yap pase
Neg anwo gade neg anba
Mizè yap pase
Neg anwo yo, neg anba yo
Bay yon chans oh

Oh yo - ye ye
Oh yo yo – ye ye
Pou peyi m vanse vre – ye ye
Abitan bezwen pale sa yo vle pale – ye ye
Nou vle peyi n sot nan mizè mwen di w tande konpè – ye ye
Oh yo oh yo yo yo
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Ba yo lavi tande ba yo limyè sou ple
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Neg anwo gade neg anba
Mizè yap pase oh yo yo yo
Neg anwo neg anba yo
Bay yon chans oh

Ye ye – mwen di bay yon chans oh
Ye ye – nou vle peyi n sot nan mizè mwen di w se vre konpè
Ye ye – wo yo, wo yo yo
Ye ye – nou vle timoun yo vivan, timoun yo dwe vivan
Ye ye
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh – bay yo lavi souple
Ye ye – bay yo limyè tande
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh – pou timoun yo vivan, se vre neg anwo
