Commissioned by the Miami Children’s Chorus
Translation of Haitian Creole text:
Here We Are
Here we are, look at us,
We are children… yes, we are!
We are the children of the earth.
We are hope… We come bringing joy to every heart.
Oh yes, we are love, we are joy,
We come bringing joy to every heart.
We want love to spread across the earth,
We’ve come to change the world…
Yes truly, we need to change the world!
We are children of the world,
We are the seeds of life.
We are the children of today,
The adults of tomorrow.
Oh yes, we are today’s youth,
The new generation
For a better tomorrow;
A generation of love, hope and joy
That will spread in every heart…
Love and joy in all hearts!
Oh, here we are,
We are children of the world,
We are the seeds of life,
The children of today,
The adults of tomorrow.
Please take our hand.
Love, hope, peace and joy… that’s who we are!
You better believe it!
