Adieu Haïti - Raphaël

Je marche dans les rues

Le bon Dieu dans ma poche

Je marche dans la grande ville

Et je n’ai plus froid

La Terre est mon amie

Et souvent je dors dessus

Et je m’ennuie de mon pays

Qui était si petit

Adieu mon petit pays

Adieu ma famille

Adieu mon île, ô Haïti, adieu ma petite terre

I remember my country

Down Memory Lane

The wind is my best friend

It always blows for me

Neons in the distance

Clear as daylight

Sometimes I think that I’m not of this world

I remember this song

O farewell my country

My carribean island in the sun

O farewell Haïti

The sun I just can’t see

Adieu mon petit pays

Adieu ma famille

Adieu mon île, ô Haïti, adieu ma petite terre

Je me souviens des rues

Et des nuits de Port-au-Prince

Et je suis toujours un étranger

A la gare internationale

Le vent nous emportait

Aussi loin qu’il pouvait

Cet air, je le connais

I say farewell my country

My carribean island in the sun

O farewell Haïti

I walk the streets

The good Lord in my pocket

I walk in the big city

And I'm not cold anymore

Earth is my friend

And often I sleep on it

And I miss my country

Who was so small

Farewell my little country

Farewell my family

Farewell my island, oh Haiti, farewell my little land

I remember my country

Down Memory Lane

The wind is my best friend

It always blows for me

Neons in the distance

Clear as daylight

Sometimes I think that I'm not of this world

I remember this song

O farewell my country

My carribean island in the sun

O farewell Haiti

The sun I just can't see

Farewell my little country

Farewell my family

Farewell my island, oh Haiti, farewell my little land

I remember the streets

And Port-au-Prince nights

And I'm still a stranger

At the international station

The wind was carrying us

As far as he could

This tune, I know it

I say farewell my country

My carribean island in the sun

O farewell Haiti
