My Haitian Queen


I am a beautiful Haitian girl with brown skin like chokola 

when a haitian man see you me he can't keep his eyes off of you he whisper softly 

that your his beautiful chokola girl and that you belong to him and nothing with change that 

wheather its the color of my hair or the size of my beast and that I will always be his beautiful chokola girl

when they kompa together their are one all you'll see is the moves of the kompa that's being covered by the steps of the music 

when a haitian man sees you he calls you his bel ti fi chokola 

when he looks into your eyes he says to you se yon sel la selman that he sees in the room 

when you dance together your moves make majik the only thing he needs is you by his side 

he sing to you a beautiful melodi that you won't ever forget and that it will always be in your dreams 

he tells you that he's crazy for you and he will protect you like only haitian man should.

I am a beautiful Haitian girl with hair so soft that its like silk that konpliman my brown skin 

when a haitian man see me they whisper to their friends and call me their madanm when I walk into a room 

when I look in their direction and the whole room stands still it makes them scream o jezi dam sa bel 

when I walk in their direction they speak so effortlessly although the world is in their hands and so lies the hearts of many of haitian women like you

some call you a bel fanm with average chokola legs that are so very smooth others call you famn pa mwen 

when I enter a haitian church jezi pale ak yo and li di isit la se fanm lan mwen voye ou 

and they gather around me and ask for my name I tell them to guess for my name won't come easy to them

for I am a women of mystery that can't be easily solved because the only one that knows me and makes me look in the right direction is my father in heaven 

I'm a haitian woman that looks for someone to cherish me more then anything in the world 

all I hear in the room is the word cheri being whispered acrossed the room but I refuse to pay them any mind but they continue to call me their bel famn chokola.

they say that I'm a famn creole so sweet like honey and that I'm a true Haitian queen anyone would love to marry.
