Guede Zaina, la canción”:
“Gede Zaraignee (la araña), zaraignee en creole (criollo) viene del francés araignée (araña). La expresión woy es usada por los haitianos como ¡Wow! ¡Qué sorpresa!, y la frase "yo fe komplo pou yo touye mwen" se traduce como "hay un complot para matarme", entonces es una canción donde se le pide a Gede Zaraignee protección para evitar ser muerto, y verse librado de los enemigos”.
“Guede Zaina
–¡woy, woy!–,
Guede Zaina.
Guede Zaina
–¡woy, woy!–,
Guede Zaina.
–¡woy, woy!–
Guede Zaina.
Guede zaina,

–¡woy, woy!–,
Guede Zaina.
Guede zaina,

Guede zaina,

–¡woy, woy!–,
Guede Zaina”.
