Poem
Let Haiti be absolutely free Haiti is the father of Freedom and Liberty Haiti is the first nation to forever ban or abolish slavery And the slave trade in the western hemisphere And in the world The first to practice absolute equality Among men and women on this sphere And throughout the world Stop meddling and interfering detrimentally with Haiti Leave Haiti alone to be absolutely free Haiti is the first nation to dig up and plant the seed of freedom For the world to unfortunately follow with pure hypocrisy Haiti is the first country to denounce false democracy Haiti is the first leader to choose martyrdom The first oasis to defeat colonialism in the Americas Haiti is where was born the first buzz of jazz The first beat and cry of “We Shall Overcome” Haiti is the first country that they tried to betray Haitians are the first unsung Heroes to die for Liberty and Freedom Thanks to Haiti that many people are living free today Since Haiti had spread the incense throughout the world “Live free or die; Freedom or Death”. Leave Haiti alone to live They made Haiti poor, undesirable, dangerous and unsafe By supplying weapons to knuckle heads, teenagers and youngsters They damned Haiti with crazy terrorists, thieves, bandits and gangsters In daylight, they tried to push Haiti down the steepest cliff Yes, they robbed, looted, poisoned, and they miserably failed To dwarf, to kill Haiti and his noble dreams after numerous invasions. Leave Leave Haiti so Haiti can be Haiti, let Haiti swim as Haiti pleases Regardless of what one hears Haiti is a nice piece of land with smart and proud Nègres And brave and valiant men and women with small and big toes Who will fight and shed blood, sweat and tears To defend Haiti Chérie. Give justice to Haiti by any means And help Haiti getting rid of the ungrateful criminals and the vermins Haiti will underwhelm, rise and rise again in the Caribbean Seas Because Haiti is peaceful, patient, lovely, adamant and resilient Haiti’s children are watching and they are highly intelligent. N.B. By the way, Nègres like Negroes is not offensive to us, Haitians, however, ‘nizzers’ is insulting. Copyright © November 2023, Hébert Logerie, all rights reserved.
