My land

Ek is hier gebore nes jy
maar hier mag ek nie meer bly
soos jy bloed uit n' klip uit tap
my stukkie menswees vertrap

My land huil
haar strate stukkend en vuil
wees, verlate verstrengel
stuur asb vir ons n' engel

Dobberend tussen leuns in n' skommelende see
aan n' beleid van haat vasgesmee
waar is die reenboog waarvan jul praat
ware betekenis verlore nes jou ruggraat

Julle praat van oorloe
sit met my hande in my hare my kop geboe
van al die geveg
is ons harte, ons menswees, ons bestaan weg

Laat die son weer oor almal skyn
laat jou wrokke tog net verdwyn
laat n' wag jou tong keer
jou haatspraak maak ons land onherstelbaar seer

Die land is ook my land
ek is hier gebore
nes n' boom hier geplant
my Afrkaner hart se fakkel sal altyd bly brand
vir my mense, vir my Land.




 

Hero

You said your no Hero
as we speak
you believe your life meant zero
tears rolling down my cheek

Like rain in mid summer
Like the breeze blowing from the sea
Like a drumstick to a drummer
you are to me

I sat looking at the floor
you were heading for the door
If I yell wait
will it be too late?

How can I paint your picture
capture the essence of you
look and see what I see when I look at you

Lie beside me, hold me tight
Take up your sword help me fight
the thoughts and image you created
is not true, nor real it's overrated

My love turn to me once more
the floor started spinning
I never kept score

As you closed the door
I fell to the floor
not realizing you stayed
my life a motion picture that played

You broke down every wall in my heart
you are the only one who saw the real me
saved me, gave me a new start
forever altering every part of  me

When I look at you
I see someone a million miles from zero
I see strength, true manliness, I see my Hero!
