Ki-sa ou vlé an lavi-a?
Gadé lanmè-a.
Ti bo anenman manman-ou,
pa té janmen fè’y pli mèyè.
Ni an lanfè an vant ou,
Ni an grangou an zo-ou,
Lavit-la vid,
Sa ka fè ou vlé viwé lakay.
(English translation)
“By Marigot”
What do you want from this life?
Staring at the sea.
Kisses from your mother,
never could make it better.
There’s an inferno in your belly,
There’s a hunger in your bones,
There’s an emptiness in the city,
That makes you want to go back home.
