Harry Belafonte Lyrics

"Merci Bon Dieu"

Mèsi Bondyé, gadé tou sa lanati poté pou nou
Mesi Bondyé, gadé kouman lamizè fini pou nou

Mèsi Bondyé, gadé tou sa lanati poté pou nou
Mesi Bondyé, gadé kouman lamizè fini pou nou

Lapli tonbé, mayi pousé
Tou timoun ki grangou p'ralé manjé

Annou dansé mambo, annou dansé Pétro
Papa Bondyé ki nan syèl, lamizè fini pou nou

Mizè ya fini pou nou
Mizè ya fini pou nou
Mizè ya fini pou nou
Mizè nou fini

Mèsi Bondyé, gadé tou sa lanati poté pou nou
Mesi Bondyé, gadé kouman lamizè fini pou nou

Mèsi Bondyé, gadé tou sa lanati poté pou nou
Mesi Bondyé, gadé kouman lamizè fini pou nou

Lapli tonbé, mayi pousé
Tou timoun ki grangou p'ralé manjé

Annou dansé mambo, annou dansé Pétro
Papa Bondyé ki nan syèl, lamizè fini pou nou

Mizè ya fini pou nou
Mizè ya fini pou nou
Mizè ya fini pou nou
Mizè ya fini pou nou
Mizè nou fini

Mèsi Bondyé, Mèsi Bondyé
