Mother Nature derailed, straining everyone to misery.
Large structures and small rafts have turned to dust and ashes.
Jesus, Marie, and Joseph... Grace and Mercy...
Mother Nature derailed, straining everyone to misery.
We see, but we don't understand,

Tighten your belt.
Haiti! Haiti! You are a valiant woman,
Hang in there, don't give up...
