Let us sing a song for Haiti sister island in distress
Beautiful Haiti far across the distant ocean
Haitian girl, jewel in the rubble, princess in the dust
Oh Creole girl you will rise again, one day you'll smile again
My island sister
Haiti was formed when the calabash was broken
And the waters of the world poured out from the mountain
From sacred caves descended the Mestizo
Came the island people of the Arawak Taino
Haitian girl when I heard you cry I knew you were heartbroken
Oh Creole girl you will rise again, one day you'll smile again
Oh island sister
Now from Port Au Prince the city has fallen
From the rubble and the dust a voice is calling
Hear the fearful cry of a frightened nation
Carried on the wind from the Caribean Ocean
Haitian girl, jewel in the rubble, princess in the dust
Oh Creole girl you will rise again, one day you'll smile again
My island sister
Once upon a time when Skibereen was mourning
Came a messenger of love from the Choctaw Nation
Let us not forget our friends across the distant ocean
In a land we've never seen who walk their trail of tears
Haitian girl, jewel in the rubble, princess in the dust
Oh Creole girl you will rise again, one day you'll smile again
My island sister
Let us sing a song for Haiti sister island in distress
