Haiti Chérie says Haiti is my beloved land
Oh, I never knew
That I’d have to leave you to understand
Just how much I miss the gallant Citadel
Where days long ago
Brave men served this country well
Where sun is bright or evenings with soft moonlight
A shading tree, Creole fellow for company
A gentle breeze, a warm caress if you please
Work, laughter and play
Yes, we'll always be this way
Haiti Chérie says Haiti is my beloved land
Oh, I never knew that I’d have to leave you to understand
Just how much I miss the gallant Citadel
Where days long ago, brave men served this country well
A gentle breeze, a warm caress if you please
Work, laughter and play
Yes, we'll always be this way
Haiti Chérie says Haiti is my beloved land
Oh, I never knew
That I’d have to leave you to understand
Just how much I miss the gallant Citadel
Where days long ago
Brave men served this country well
Where days long ago
Brave men served this country well
Haiti Chérie says Haiti is my beloved land...
