You have beds to sell, I have beddings to buy. Neighbors are family, Good riddles make good friends. The knife may be sharp, it never scrapes its handle. Those who always share never die of hunger. Long lives Diplomacy! Long lives Fraternity! - - - Haitian Creole text: Men ale - Men vini, sa kenbe lamitye. Ou gen kabann pou vann, Mwen gen dra pou achte. Vwazinay se fanmi, Bon kont fè bon zanmi. Kouto mèt byen file, li pa grate manch li. Moun ki konn pataje pap janm mouri grangou. Vive la Diplomatie! Vive la Fraternité! - - -  less
