Lyrics of Nou se ayisyen - Klass

Nou se ayisyen (original)

Se nan solèy la mwen benyen
Lè mwen leve lè maten
Nan lawouze m badijonnen
Mwen fyè ke m se Ayisyen
Rasin mwen plante an Afrik
Yo te mennen ladan kou tibourik
Men zansèt mwen te lite
Pou banm libète ak fyète
Frè m ak sè m pinga n reziye n
An nou chèche konn kisa k bloke n
Se vre chenn lan te soti nan pye n
Men nou toujou esklav nan panse n
Pran almanak ann chèch'on dat
Nou bezwen yon lòt milwisankat
Zansèt nou yo te fè li deja
Li nesesè pou n refè l jodi a!
Yo kolonize n plizyè fwa
Sou yo nou toujou jwenn viktwa
Nou se yon pèp ki gen listwa
Nou se yon pakèt grenn ak bwa
Lè pitit mwen mande m papa
Kiyès mwen ye?
Mwen gade li nan je
Ak ponyet mwen konsantre
Mwen di l, «Cherie se Ayisyen w ye!»
Frè m ak sè m pinga n reziye n!
An nou chèche konn kisa k bloke n!
Se vre chenn lan te soti nan pye n
Men nou toujou esklav nan panse n
Pran almanak ann chèch'on dat!
Nou bezwen yon lòt milwisankat!
Zansèt nou yo te fè li deja!
Li nesesè pou n refè l jodi a!
Ayisyen!
Nou se yon sel ras
Yon sel Klass!
Sa nou ye?
Nou se fanmi!
Se sa wi!
Yo kolonize nou plizye fwa
Boure sèvo n ak fatra
Fè n dezakòde!
Sa fè nou diveze!
Men pi vit nou rive aksepte sa
Se pi vit nou pral ka chanje sa
Ann ale!
Toujou toujou sonje!

(translation)

I bathed in the sun
When I get up in the morning
In the dew I slime
I am proud to be Haitian
My roots are planted in Africa
They were stabbed
But my ancestors struggled
To give me freedom and pride
My brothers and sisters should not give up
Let's find out what is blocking us
It is true that the chain came from our feet
But we are still slaves to our thinking
Take the calendar and look for the date
We need another 149
Our forefathers did it already
We need to do it again today!
They colonized it several times
On them we always get victory
We are a people with history
We are a bunch of grain and wood
When my son asked me for a father
Who am i
I looked her in the eye
With my wrists focused
I said, "Cherie, you're Haitian!"
Brothers and sisters, don't give up!
Let's find out what is blocking us!
It is true that the chain came from our feet
But we are still slaves to our thinking
Take the calendar and look for the date!
We need another four hundred and four!
Our forefathers did it already!
We need to do it again today!
Haitians!
We are one race
One Klass!
What are we?
We are family!
Yes!
We have been colonized several times
Stuff your brain with garbage
Disagree!
That makes us diverge!
But we soon accepted that
We will soon be able to change that
Let's go!
Always remember!
