Still Tears In Our Eyes For Our Dear Homeland

Still tears in our eyes for our Brave Haiti Still tears in our eyes for our incredible Country Still tears in our eyes for our mortified, martyred Bludgeoned, tricked, tortured, vilified and murdered victims The cowards wasted and riddled with bullets an incompetent president Who could not exterminate corruption and nourish our arable land. Still tears in our eyes for our dear homeland Still tears in our eyes for our hardened souls Still tears in our eyes for the caustic and unheard-of crimes Our cowardly politicians have totally forgotten the oaths and the cries Of our glorious ancestors who bequeathed to us this beautiful country of Haiti After so much bloodshed, suffering, sacrifices, adventures and braveries. Oh ! Our Heroes are disappointed in their well-deserved resting places Still sad deaths where thugs, knuckle heads, vermins and gangs from morbid Hells are in total control of the lives of our brothers and sisters Still another anniversary where many good people are suffering and weeping We're sick of everything that's bad and brooding in our country Still tears for our battered, bruised, resilient and impoverished Haiti. P.S. Happy May 18th. Flag’s Day to Haiti! Haiti fought ferociously and won its independence in January 1804.
