Translation of Haitian Creole text:
My Village / My Country
My village has many mountains,
Behind the mountains, there are always more mountains,
There are many little waterfalls,
And many little birds chirping.
If my village does not plant,
The city will not find food.
Everyone, love the farmers.
They are the source of our lives.
Behind the mountains, there are always more mountains,
Behind the mountains, the sun rises and sets,
Behind the mountains are hidden stories of my village.
Behind the mountains, wisdom abounds…
