Kanpe Ayiti
Ou pikwa avèk de gren mayi sou ou tè sec renpli ak dlo sous
Ayiti ka kanpe
 Avèk ou gren san blòf tèt tout moun ap dwat

Proud to Be Ayitian
 

I am strong today and I will be strong tomorrow.

To continue to treat my brothers and sisters with respect and kindness.

To uplift them in times of danger and to rescue them in times of sorrow.

 To cherish them with dignity.

To vow not to betray my brothers for the pursuit of money.

To understand the past, move forward to the future.

To fight for freedom and allow no one take it away from me.

To continue the Ayitians legacy with love, peace and unity.

Port-au-Prince on my Mind
Written by Carine Deshommes Jones

Your Tap Tap on your streets with colorful designs, playing sensual music that transported me from the north side to the east side, from the east side to the west side,

Jacmel Flower Of May

Jacmel Flower of May, I love you.
My friend, my love, I love you.
People forget sometimes your scent.

My age, my history, I adore your existence.

Your grandeur, your opulence reign on Haiti for 300 years.
After you have passed 300 years
of revolutions, 300 years of calamities,
you remain again beautiful.
Your beautiful shores, your beaches make you Queen of Haiti.
Your carnival of colors, your fine arts,
your beauty, your children, your buildings
make you the Heroine of Haiti.
