Текст и перевод песни Belo - Ti Jean (feat. Sael)

Ti Jean (feat. Sael)

Ti Jean gen douz an
Nan fanmil yo wit se li'k pi gran
Lap ede manman'l chache lajan
Li fe sa nenpòt kijan

Li pat al lekòl Sei
Ki fè edikasyon tèt li poukòl
Nan chache lavi manman'l pane anpil gòl
Chaj sot sou tèt ... o outro sou zepòl
Ou san konsyans, wap pwofite sitiyasyon
Saa ou pran yon zam lage nan homens tigason saa
Ou di 'L poufè
Chimen'l S'avèl pou'l ganye pen'l

Olye'w mete zam nan men'l
Pouki'w pa kenbe men'l
Chache chimen lekòl
Mete'l nan bon lekòl

Imajine se ou 'k te papa
Ti gason sa ki pa wè a nan fèy malanga
Poutan nan men'l li gen yon gwo bereta
Ki lage nan lari a san fwa ni lwa
Di'm kijan'w tap santi'w siw te nan ka
Ti bway sa ki oblije ap fè dega
Lap tuye moun li pa konnen par ci par la
Fè moun kriye fè moun chagren pou kèk dola
Pourtan ou tap santi'w blow tèt ou tap cho
Si'w ta vin jwenn yon fanmi'w sou do
Koupab ou inosan ak bal nan do
Pa gen moun ki tap ka seche dlo nan je'w

Olye'w mete zam nan men'l
Pouki'w pa kenbe men'l
Chache chimen lekòl
Mete'l nan bon lekòl

Ti Jean pat fèt tou vagabon (non non non non...)
Se sosyete a ki fè'l (vin delenkan)
Ti jean s'on inosan
Ki ta sipoze jwen ankadreman
Nan yon sosyete pachiman

Ti jean n'a que douze ans
Ainé d'une famille de huit enfants
C'est lui la béquille de sa maman
Le voilà dans la cour des grands

Bras armé et conditionné
N'hésite pas à tuer pour une petite monnaie
Victime désignée par ses responsabilités
Dans un destin déjà tracé.
Et toi manipulateur d'innocence
Qui en profite où est donc ta conscience
Quand t'abuses de la confiance
D'un enfant sans défense

Au lieu d'armer ce gamin
Propose-lui un bouquin
Emmène-le à l'école
C'est plutôt ça ton rôle (bis)
Ou ta chache chimen lekòl
Pou metel nan on bon lekòl
Emmène le à l'école
C'est plutôt ça ton rôle

Ti Jean (feat. Sael)

Ti Jean is twelve years old
From a family of eight, he's the oldest
He's his mother's right-hand man
He does whatever it takes

He never went to school
So his education is lacking
Trying to find a way for his mother, he has no goals
The burden on his head weighs heavily on his shoulders
You have no conscience, you take advantage of the situation
So you take a gun and put it in the hands of this child
You say, "It's for your own good."
His path is unclear, he's just trying to earn a living.

Instead of putting a gun in his hand
Why don't you take his hand
Find a way to school
Put him in a good school

Imagine if it were your son
This boy who doesn't know right from wrong
Yet in his hand he holds a big gun
That he fires in the streets without hesitation
Tell me how you would feel if you were in this situation
This boy who is forced to cause harm
He kills people he doesn't know, here and there
Making people cry and grieve for a few dollars
Yet you would be beside yourself if
Your family came to you in distress
Culpable, innocent, shot in the back
There would be no one to dry your tears

Instead of putting a gun in his hand
Why don't you take his hand
Find a way to school
Put him in a good school

Ti Jean wasn't born a vagabond
It's society that made him a delinquent
Ti Jean is innocent
He should have had guidance
In a society without pity

Ti Jean is only twelve years old
The oldest of a family of eight children
He's his mother's right-hand man
Now he's in the big leagues

He's armed and dangerous
He doesn't hesitate to kill for a little money
A victim of his circumstances
In a destiny already mapped out.
And you, manipulator of innocence
Who takes advantage, where is your conscience
When you abuse the trust
Of a defenseless child

Instead of arming this kid
Offer him a book
Take him to school
That's your role
You should find a way to school
Put him in a good school
Take him to school
That's your role
