Mwen Bouke
Belo Lyrics

Timoun ki pral lekòl
Children going to school

Pa ta dwe ap janbe kadav
Should not be stepping over corpses

Si n pa kole zepòl
If we don't hold hands

Jou an jou, sa va pi grav
Day by day, it will get worse

Si tout moun ret bouchbe
If everyone remains silent

Tren malè sa pral kite ray
Such misfortunes will continue to happen

Grenn pa grenn, n ap tonbe
One by one, we are falling

P ap gen moun nan lakou lakay
No one will be left in their homes

M santi m bouke wè san
I feel tired seeing blood

K ap koulè nan tout kanal
That colors every channel

Toupatou, se inosan k ap tonbe
Everywhere, innocent people are falling

Sa pa nòmal
This is not normal

Si n pa tanmen poze aksyon
If we don't take action

Si n pa fè yon revolisyon
If we don't make a revolution

Nou p ap ka jwenn chanjman an
We won't be able to achieve change

Yon revolisyon, san baton
A revolution without sticks

San vyolans, san emosyon
Without violence, without emotion

Yon veritab mouvman
A true movement

Li lè, li tan
It's time

Pou n sispann viv zak vyolans
To stop living in a violent society

Fòk nou f'on jan
We have to change

Pou n frennen entolerans
To stop intolerance

Pou n deside viv yon lòt jan
To decide to live differently

Wi! Fòk nou f'on jan
Yes! We have to change

Pou n jwenn trankilite tout bon
To attain real peace

Chak katouch ki tire
Every shot fired

Nanm timoun yo vole
Steals the souls of children

Yo pran kriye
They start to cry

Granmoun y ap priye
The elders are praying

Se jou y ap konte
These are days that will be counted

Pou yo sove
For them to survive

Yo di "Nou bouke" (santi n pa kapab ankò)
They say "we are tired" (feeling like we can't go on)

Bouke (bouke)
Tired (tired)

Nou bouke (mezanmi, n pa kapab ankò)
We are tired (seriously, we can't go on)

Nou bouke (bouke)
We are tired (tired)

Nou bouke (santi n pa kapab ankò)
We are tired (feeling like we can't go on)

Nou bouke, non, non, non (bouke)
We are tired, no, no, no (tired)

Nou bouke (mezanmi, n pa kapab ankò)
We are tired (seriously, we can't go on)

Nou bouke (bouke)
We are tired (tired)

Nou bou...
We are tired...

Jodi a, gen dwa se pou ou
Today, the right is yours

Li gen yon zam nan men l
You have a weapon in your hands

Demen, gen dwa se ou tou
Tomorrow, the right is still yours

Ki genyen l anba men w
That you hold under your control

Lè sa w ap di tou
At that time, you will also say

Ou bouke
You are tired

Ou bouke, non
You are tired, no

Ou bouke
You are tired

Ou bouke
You are tired

Ou bouke
You are tired

Ou bouke, non non
You are tired, no no

Ou bouke
You are tired

Ou bouke, non, non, ye!
You are tired, no, no, yes!
