🇺🇸 英文

My white guitar, you’ve come back home, After all this time, you’re here again. The dream never died — It was waiting for me all along.

🇫🇷 法文

Ma guitare blanche, tu es rentrée à la maison, Après tout ce temps, te voilà de nouveau. Le rêve n’est jamais mort — Il m’attendait depuis toujours.

🇪🇸 Spanish

Mi guitarra blanca, has vuelto a casa, Después de todo este tiempo, aquí estás de nuevo. El sueño nunca murió — Me esperaba todo este tiempo.

文化後行

Konpa was born in Haiti in the 1950s, built for one purpose: to get a room full of people dancing together, no matter what else was going on outside. Nemours Jean-Baptiste shaped that sound, and every Konpa song since carries a piece of it.

“Gita Blan” sits inside that tradition — a smooth, mid-tempo groove meant for a crowded floor — but tells a Haitian-American story: what it means to leave something behind in one country and find your way back to it in another.
