Lyrics - Haitian Creole

(Folk song from Haiti)

Tonton Bouki,
Tonton Bouki,
Ou ap dòmi?
Ou ap dòmi?
Lévé pou bat tanbou-a,
Lévé pou bat tanbou-a!
Ding ding dong!
Ding ding dong!

English Translation - Uncle Bouki

Uncle Bouki,
Uncle Bouki,
Are you sleeping?
Are you sleeping?
Get up to play the drum,
Get up to play the drum!
Ding, ding, dong!
Ding, ding, dong!
