Текст и перевод песни Olivier Martelly - Veye Yo

Veye Yo

Yo pap janm we kalitew, yo pito we feblès ou
Yo pap ankourajew, yo pito veye bès ou
Moun kap palew mal la souvan se li'k manje res ou
Sil wè wap pwogrese li mache di ke ou vann fès ou

Veye Yo

My love, your father will never appreciate your good points, he’d prefer to see your weaknesses
He will never encourage you, he’d prefer to see you fall
Often the person who badmouths you is the one who has benefited from your left-overs
If he sees you progressing he’ll start spreading rumors that you’re selling drugs
