Once on this Island

We Dance

There is an island where rivers run deep
Where the sea sparkling in the sun earns it
The name 'Jewel of the Antillies'

An island where the poorest of peasents labor
And the wealthiest of grand homme play
Two different worlds on one island
The Grand Homme, owners of the land
And masters of their own fate

And the peasants eternally at the mercy
Of the wind and the sea
Who pray constantly to the gods

Asaka - mother of the earth
Agwe -god of water
Erzulie - beautiful goddess of love
And Papa Ge - Sly demon of death, hahahaha

Asaka, grow me a garden
Please Agwe, don't flood my garden
Erzulie, who will my love be?
Papa Ge, don't come around me
Please Agwe, don't flood my garden
Asaka, grow me a garden

We dance, we dance to the music of the gods
The music of the breezes through the green platine
The murmur of the river and the roar of rain
And if the gods decide to send a hurricane

We dance to the earth, we dance to the water

The Gods awake and we take no chance
Our hearts hear the song, our feet move along
And to the music of the gods, we dance

On the other side of the island
Safe behind high walls and iron gates
The Grand Homme dance to a different tune
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

They drink champagne
Entertain tourists at their fine hotels
And tell their servants, 'Polish up the Mercedes'
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

How fine our clothes are, we dance
How fast we drive, we dance
We dance at parties
While we are dancing just to stay alive

We dance to the earth, we dance to the water
The gods awake and we take no chance
Our hearts hear the song, our feet move along
And to the music of the gods, we dance

Two different worlds, ooh la, never meant to meet
But if the gods move our feet
We dance, we dance, we dance
