Kote moun yo

Stella#1

Kote moun yo oo m pa we moun yo ooo
Mwen sonje lontan lè m gen vakans 3 mwa
Son plezi pou mwen desann kay grann tiya
Poum al manje mango, al benyen nan gro dlo
Mwen sonje sa kom si se jodia, mwen menm ak tout ti zanmi sou katye a
Lè n tap fè jwèt lago, jwe football ak boyo
Men kounye a bagay yo chanje
Mwen pa wè timoun jwe mab, ni jwe oslè, yo pa sote kòd, monte kap
Nou meleeee, nou meleeeee

Refren
Kote moun yo oooooooo
Mwen pa wè moun yo
Kote moun ki konn jwe football avè m
M pa wè timoun kite grandi avè m
Kote moun yo oooooooo
Mwen pa wè moun yo
Kote moun kite enpòtan nan kèm
M pa wè timoun kite grandi avè m

Jan sa konn bèl chak swa, lè n chita nan lakou a
Tout timoun nan pye granpa, kap rakonte bèl istwa
Jan sa konn bèl, lè nou desann nan jaden
Al manje kachiman sou pye, bwè kokoye ole
Nou fè lavironn dede
Men kounye a, bagay yo chanjeeeeeee
Timoun yo pito manje, manje kachte,
Bagay ki sot a letranje
Nou meleeee, nou meleeeeeRefren 2
Kote moun yo oooooooo
Mwen pa wè moun yo
Kote moun ki konn jwe football avè m
M pa wè moun ki konn al lekòl avè m
Kote moun yo oooooooo
Mwen pa wè moun yo

Kote moun kite enpòtan nan kèm
M pa wè timoun kite grandi ave m

Bridge
Chachem chache yo
Gen sa ki egzile
Chache m pa wè yo
Gen sa ki depòte
Chache m chache yo
Gen sak kal jwenn bondye
Chache m pa wè yo
Jou yo pat ko riveBelo
Gen sa ki toujou la
Ki gen lespwa, ca va changer ya delivre
Tout bon vre, tout bon vreRefren
Kote moun yo oooooooo
Mwen pa wè moun yo
Kote moun ki konn al lekòl avè m
M pa wè timoun kite grandi ave m
Kote moun yo oooooooo
Mwen pa wè moun yo
Moun petion ville yo

Kote moun yo oooooooo
Mwen pa wè moun yo
Kote moun ki konn jwe football avè m
M pa wè moun ki konn al lekòl avè m
Kote moun yo oooooooo
Mwen pa wè moun yo

Where Are the People

Verse 1

Where are the people I don't see them anymore
I remember when I had a 3-month vacation
It was fun for me to go down to my grandmother's house
To eat mangoes, to swim in the big water
I remember it as if it were today, me and all the little friends in the neighborhood
When we played jacks, played soccer with a ball made of rags
But now things have changed
I don't see children playing marbles, or playing hopscotch, they don't jump rope, climb trees
We're lost, we're lost

Chorus
Where are the people?
I don't see the people
Where are the people who used to play soccer with me?
I don't see the children I grew up with
Where are the people?
I don't see the people
Where are the people who were important in the community
I don't see the children I grew up with

How beautiful it used to be every night, when we sat in the courtyard
All the children at grandpa's feet, hearing beautiful stories
How beautiful it used to be, when we went down to the garden
To eat star apples from the tree, to drink fresh coconut milk
We were all together
But now, things have changed
Children prefer to eat, to hide, to eat
Things that come from abroad
We are lost, we are lostChorus 2
Where are the people?
I don't see the people
Where are the people who used to play soccer with me?
I don't see the children who used to go to school with me
Where are the people?
I don't see the people

Where are the people who were important in the community
I don't see the children I grew up with

Bridge
I look for them
Some are in exile
I look for them
Some are deported
I look for them
Some have already met their maker
I look for them
The day has not yet comeBelo
There are still those who are here
Who have hope, it will change, it will be better
It's true, it's trueChorus
Where are the people?
I don't see the people
Where are the people who used to go to school with me?
I don't see the children I grew up with
Where are the people?
I don't see the people
The people of Petion Ville

Where are the people?
I don't see the people
Where are the people who used to play soccer with me?
I don't see the people who used to go to school with me
Where are the people?
I don't see the people
