about

Mountain song

Lyrics by Germa Adan - a song inspired by the diasporic desire to return and connect to Haiti and the desire to return to what feels wholesome and pure. It is also inspired by the perpetual call to return to ‘home’ wherever and whatever it may be, and ultimately the return to the feeling of home within oneself

lyrics

Mountain Song
Lyrics and music by Germa Adan


Roll over these mountains Take me home
I no longer need your fastpaced world
Purge me in the river wash my soul
Away with my burdens, away with my woes

Ahha ha
Ahha ha
Ahha ha


Gonna find out the best of me
Won’t you take a closer walk with me
Walk along beside me day and night
Moving through dem branches side by side

Ahha ha
Ahha ha
Ahha ha

Leve'm sur montaine, minim lakay
Mwen pa vle rete nan moment ca
Lavem nan rivier dlo ki pi kle
Retirer tout chaj avek miser

Ahha ha
Ahha ha
Ahha ha

Mwen pr'aller cherche youn vi pi bon
Fre et seour an nou met min nan min
Nan peyi ancestre, et nan peyi louin
Continuer cherche lunion pour ayiti

Ahha ha
Ahha ha
Ahha ha
