AVETISMAN

Kwèlye-an
Nou fi’n jete krazebrize
Tout vye rèv an mwin yo
m-pa ta ba-n konsèy
al mache pile yo met sou li
n-a va blese
lan zinglin yo

 

NOTICE

Now that you’ve broken
               thrown away
                              my dreams
I warn you
                don’t walk
                              don’t stomp on them
You’ll get
                all cut-up
                              on broken pieces
