Qu'il flotte désormais dans l'azur.pour rappeler à tous les Haïtiens
les prouesses de nos sublimes martyrs.

de la Crête à Pierrot, de la Butte Charrier et de Vertières
qui se sont immortalisés, sous les boulets et la mitraille,
pour nous créer une patrie, où le nègre haitien, se sent réellement souverain et libre.

I swear before God and my nation.

Where our proud flag has to always be at the avant guard.

 
May it continue to wave in the sky as a reminder to all Haitians
 
The superior strength and courage of our sublime martyrs, of the Crete a Pierrot, of the Butte Charier and of Vertières
 
which achieved immortality, under cannonballs and hail of bullets,
to create and to leave us our dear mother Haiti, where the Haitian Negro can indeed feel sovereign and free.
