"Merci Bon Dieu" lyrics - HARRY BELAFONTE

Meci bon Die,
Gade tout ca la natu pote pou nous.
Meci bon Die,
Gade couman la mize fini pou nous.
La pli tombe,
Mai pousse,
Toute ti moune qui grand gout prale mange.
An nous danse Congo,
An nous danse Petro,
Papa bon Die di nan ciel la mize fini pou nous.

[English Translation:]
Thank you, God,
Look at all that nature has brought us.
Thank you, God,
Look how misery has ended for us.
The rain has fallen,
The corn has grown,
All the children that were hungry are going to eat.
Let's dance the Congo,
Let's dance the Petro,
God said in Heaven
That misery has ended for us.
