What is the meaning of: "Grenn zaboka sevi zorye, anbalatcha. Aswe a m p ap domi? "

You'll find that a lot of kids do sing that song on the playground in Haiti, either while playing 'circle' or while playing hide and seek.  But this is no song for kids.

Grenn zaboka sèvi zorye, anba latcha. Aswè a m p'ap domi?

Avocado seeds serve as pillow, under latcha.  I won't  sleep tonight. (Literally)

It has a hidden sexual meaning where avocado seeds refer to testicles, and latcha is a nickname for women's or men's private parts.
