About

Chassagne’s evocative illustration of her homeland on “Haiti”, the country her parents fled in the 1960s is both distantly exotic and starkly violent, perfectly evoking a nation in turmoil.

Haiti Lyrics

[Verse 1: Regine Chassagne]
Haïti, mon pays
Wounded mother I’ll never see
Ma famille set me free
Throw my ashes into the sea

[Verse 2: Regine Chassagne]
Mes cousins, jamais nés
Hantent les nuits de Duvalier
Rien n'arrete nos esprits
Guns can’t kill what soldiers can’t see

[Verse 3: Regine Chassagne]
In the forest we are hiding
Unmarked graves where flowers grow
Hear the soldiers angry yelling
In the river we will go

[Verse 4: Regine Chassagne]
Tous les morts-nés forment une armée
Soon we will reclaim the earth
All the tears and all the bodies
Bring about our second birth

[Verse 5: Will Butler]
Haïti, never free
N'aie pas peur de sonner l'alarme
Tes enfants sont partis
In those days their blood was still warm
