about

The fourth instalment of Wisdom’s interlude in the Moonshine mixtape series, Kòmsadwa's Wisdom (Ézuli) is a poem in Haitian creole by Moonshine’s own Commeungrand, also known as Kessie Theliar Charles, who imparts relationship advice given to her by her grandmother, woven into a softy sung melody. A multidisciplinary artist and Moonshine collective member, Commeungrand created some of the arresting for Moonshine’s new clothing campaign.

lyrics

Mesye Dam la sosyete Bonswa!
Nap kontinye ak Choses et Gens entendus

Hmm, Sinpleman zanmi, Hmmm

Defun gran mwen te kon di m
Dépi ou renmen ak yon moun ,
Ou wè li gen move konpotasyon WE-TE KO W nan kosaj li
San sa lap bo w kout pa konpran

Erzuli oh….
Pa bliye se deux bon ki fe bonbon
Erzuli oh…

E si toutfwa moun nan tap pou ou tout bon vre,
nan pwen renmen kip a mante kite

Si moun nan gen pou li tounen la p tounen
Me ou granmoun tèt ou, sè mèt kò ki veye kò

Ki vle di pa anmède kò w

Paske nan Monreyal lan la, hmmm
Lari a plen a Mango ak po fil,ou pa kon kile wap glise
Yo pale fò!
