The identity of the Haitian diaspora is often controversial by the country. Yet it is indeed a pillar of society, a tribute to those who, even later, are a key element of the reconstruction of Haiti.

L'identité de la diaspora haïtienne est bien souvent controversée par le pays. Pourtant elle est bel et bien un pilier de la société, un hommage à celles et ceux qui, même loin, sont un élément clé de la reconstruction d'Haïti.

It is the secret to the effervescent joy in the faces of our children, the melodic movement of our women, and the unfailing humor within our men.
We in Trinidad and Tobago have discovered the true meaning of happiness in life.
In fact it was no surprise that the UNSDSN's World Happiness Report for 2013 ranked us as the happiest country in the Caribbean, and the 31st in the world. Especially with factors like 'someone to count on', 'generousity', 'healthy life expectancy' and the 'freedom to make life choices' being used as measures to determine our inner joy.
Reflecting this light-hearted island atmosphere is Machel Montano's first official release for the Carnival 2014 season.
HMA (Happiest Man Alive), reminds us that the ultimate success lies inside our souls and the only path to that bliss is to simply forget the worries around us and live the life you are blessed with, an art perfected by Trinbagonians.
Gamal "Skinny Fabulous" Doyle, Alex "Kubiyashi" Barnwell, alongside Machel Montano wrote this infectious track, which was produced by Barnwell.
As the signature start to Machel's upcoming soca season, his fans can surely anticipate, truly uplifting music that will forever reinforce the sheer joy found in everything Caribbean. ©Mystie Thongs

Machel Mantano HMA  Happiest Man Alive

Une porte qui claque, un mot de trop, des paroles qu'on regrette. Une dispute éclate: l'un veut rester l'autre pas... malgré leur amour mutuel, leurs chemins s'éloignent 

(BélO)
Yon ti gout dlo, ki vin ranvèse yon vè
Yon pawòl, ki mete’w an kolè
Yyon kout fil, ki rive move lè
Yon ti gès, wi yon senp ti erè

oh non non non non mwen pa pare 
pou ou ale pou yon jounen
non non non non mwen pa pare, 
pou ou ale yon pa pi lwen
paske m’renmen ou, mrenmen’w an abondans,
mwen renmen’w

(Queen Bee)
Mmwen paka kwè, ke’w pa vle  m’ale
Aprè tout sa’w fe, jodia m’revolte
Tout efò’m te fè, ke’w pat janm apresye
no no

Non non non non mwen pa pare 
Pou mwen rete menm jounen
Non non non non mwen pa pare, 
Pou nou ale yo pa pi lwen
Malgre m’renmen ou, mrenmen’w profondeman

Bridge
Pafè kou Klodèt ni Diore, pa kite mwen
Mwen gon laj avanse, M’paka ka rekomanse
Bélolo Cheri se vre ke mwen renmenw
Men ou sou banboch toujou, mpito viv lwen’w

(Ou di) non non non non mwen pa pare 
Pou mwen rete menm jounen
Non non non non mwen pa pare, 
Pou nou ale yo pa pi lwen
Alòs ke’m  m’renmen ou, (mrenmen’w an abondans)
Malgre’m renmenw ou ( mrenmenw profondeman)
Bebe sevre mrenmenw
No.. no.. anyeahh
Pafèsa pafèsa pafèsa pigaw kite mwen.
