Haiti - Earthquake 2010 : «Pitye pou Ayiti, Papa» a song by Joël Lorquet in tribute to the victims
As part of the commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the earthquake of January 12, 2010, the well-known writer and evangelist artist Joël Lorquet, presents to the public "Pitye pou Ayiti, Papa !", a song intended to pay tribute to the victims of the earthquake of January 12, 2010

Joël Lorquet encourages other musicians to do the same by writing patriotic or committed texts in order to make compatriots aware of the real problems of the country and thus raise awareness among local leaders for effective leadership, in order avoid repeating the mistakes of the past and thus look to the future in a more positive light for all, like developed countries.

« Pitye pou Ayiti, Papa » :
Text and melody: Joël Lorquet
Piano: Jovans Rolph Lorquet
Guitar: Grégory Luc
Studio: Grematek



Word of the song « Pitye pou Ayiti, Papa »

- 1 -
« Douz janvye lane de mil dis
S’on dat nou pape janm bliye.
Kèlke segond latè tranble,
Epi se dèy dezolasyon.

Yon pakèt kay te efondre,
Jou sa-a de san mil moun mouri,
Sa ki te rich vin tounen pòv,
Yo blige dòmi nan lari.

REFREN
Pitye pou Ayiti Papa!
Pitye pou peyi nou!
Pou nou sispan konte kadav,
Pou Ayisyen sispann kriye,
Pou Ayiti ka pwogrese
Tankou sa fèt nan lòt peyi.

Peyi nou konn gen koudeta
Nou pase pre lagè sivil
Nou pran siklòn, inondasyon
Kounyè-a se tranbleman d’tè

Bondye, pouki tout tan se nou?
Nou konnen nou fè sak pa bon
Eske se yon malediksyon?
Se pou sa nap mandew padon.

REFREN
Padon pou Ayiti Papa ! »


Note that the song "Pitye pou Ayiti" was written on Sunday January 17, 2010 less than a week after the earthquake which killed nearly 300,000 people and destroyed 75% of Port-au-Prince in 35 seconds...
