Nan menmwa Jacques Stephenn Alexis

Nan bri lanmò gen van ki soufle
Nan mach lavi gen loray ki sonnen
Lodè l se tranchman vant lanmè
Koulè l se fèy woukou Astèk

Jak Aleksi siyen Jak Desalin
Pou mache simen fòs Lalibète.

Devan papòt Lasivilizayon
Li fè verite pyafe sou solèy
Li fè dlo sous toufe Lalin nan nen
Pye malanga tounen (gps) limyè pou lavi

Jak Aleksi siyen Jak Roumen
Pou pote limyè lakonesans.

Bout pa bout nou vin konprann
[n ap dekrenmen]
Gout pa gout n ap deseche
[ nan mitan rèv nou]
Tou sa nou merite rete kanpe anwo tèt nou
Tou sa ki pou nou yo sere byenfon anba pye yo
Yomenm Yo se Yo
Nou, Nou se yon Kan
Chapo pay nou tounen panyen pèse pou dlo bwote tout espwa
Chak gout dlo tounen kwòk pwason ki jouke mizè nou pi plis.

Nou tout pran sant tè a, lò l tranble
Kè nou ponpe anba lalwèt nou
Lè pousyè deplase venn nan kò nou
Lè lafimen pouse zèl nan rèv nou

Jak Aleksi siyen Jak D. Anbwaz
Pou goumen pete pòt pran lari.

Gen san lane
N ap jete san
Pou lave san
Avril senyen
22 Avril 62
22 Avril 22

Nou janbe kafou nan tounen pousyè
Van bwote tout kote nan tou bwa
Kote plim je zwezo se grenn lapli
Ki pèdi chimen sou nich pay pwoletè.

Bri wòch desann nan dlo Van sapata
Pou lawouze toufe tout zèb ginen
Jis tèt peyi a fann pak an pak
Jis nou tonbe nan touwonsanfon.

Rodolphe Mathurin

I remember playing against...

Albums We're Waiting For

Though there's a couple of albums from last year we still can't get enough of, that doesn't mean we can't look forward to a great lineup in 2016. Here are some of the albums that we can't wait for this year. 1. Carimi Their last album, Invasion, has yet to come out the 5-disc changer in most people's cars. The live album, "Kite M Cho" made us fall in love with the tracks even more. With Michael's return to the band after a month-long vacation/mini retirement, we're sure...

Five Diaspora Winter Anthems

A few weeks ago, all 50 states reached freezing temperatures. The Polar vortex may be gone, but most of us still can't feel our toes. Since humans can't hibernate, staying in and hunkering down is only a temporary fix. Plus, we have to brave the cold to pay those bills. Good thing, we have music to warm our souls. Quite a few Haitian artists have migrated to the States, Canada, and Europe. They've all experienced the winter blues and expressed their lingering homesickness in song. Here are a few of our favorites. They're a potent cocktail of frustration and nostalgia. We'd cry,...

4Mula's Chapter 1

Jude and Carl Edouard (Carlitow) Deslouches have been on our radar since they dropped Se Ou Mwen Vle and the subsequent EP. Once in a while, the brothers would tease us with a new track. Late last year, they introduced 4Mula, a new band with fellow Montrealites and former Vibrasyon members, Romuald Paul and Benjamin Guirand. Their debut, "Chapter 1", is a groovy ride anchored by the Deslouches' warm vocals. It's the kind of album that will jump start any party and keep it rocking all night long. All you need is an aux cord. We...

For Mom

That voice in your head isn't your conscience. It's your mother, whispering "Pitit mwen, sa a w'ap fè la a?" Reminding you that you're better than this. Telling you to dust yourself off and finish what you started. Urging you to be as great as she knows you were destined to be. Because that's what mothers do. She always knows best and always wants the best for you. Whether your mother is a short drive away, a phone call away, or in heaven watching down, these songs remind us that the our greatest...
