lyrics

Ay mi tan mwen
Ay mi tan pou mwen ay fè genm
An mitant ay, an mitan, mitan ay menm
Apa garé mwen garé
Mwen savé trè byen la mwen yé
Sé an mitan menm
An mitan pit lasa menm.

An mitan ay menm
Apa garé mwen garé
Mwen savé trè byen la mwen yé
Sé an mitan ay menm

An mitan ay mèm
Sé tan mwen, tou an mwen ou tann ?
Tan pou desann an tou, pa pou atann
Alantou ay menm.

An ? An ?
In the pit, right in the pit.

Ès ou ké sav pèsé ?
Sapé ou pè pèd, sapé ou pè dépasé
An mitan ay menm.

Anh, right in the pit now.

Ridésann pari, désann an mitan menm.

Ay mi tan mwen
Ay mi tan pou mwen ay fè genm
An mitant ay, an mitan, mitan ay menm
Apa garé mwen garé
Mwen savé trè byen la mwen yé
Sé an mitan menm
An mitan pit lasa menm.

Ès ou ké pé lès pasé larès, pasé tout èspésyalis,
Mèt fent é vis, jès an trèt, tout èstil masko, lès pasé,
Tout mès a vyé kòk, ès ou byen gyòk, mèt a mannyòk.

Élas ! ou las, ou ja pèd fas,
Ou pis anplas pou blès épi kou,
Kou épi blès, ou pèd vitès
Pani lasyès, lévé!
Nòstròm, ou anlopyòm
Asé fè dyès ou tròp alèz
S’on kaskou douvan gran lakou
Pa fè bas, ou pòkò ni ras
Ou pa fanngas pou bay bwè tas
Ou té vini rété lenj pwòp
Enki soti, ou ja antwòp.

An ? An ?
Right in the pit now

In the pit right in the pit now
