Would We Be Able To Rise Again?

 What a beautiful Afrikaans song!!!!


Sê my is jy ok?/Tell me are you ok?

Jou wêreld vergaan om my/Your world is falling apart around me
Ek wonder is jy ok?/I wonder are you ok?
Ek kon jou voel langs my/I could feel you next to me

Jou man is hier/Your husband is here
Jy't ‘n werk gekry/You got a job
Ver oor die see/Far across the sea
Ver van my/Far from me

Ek't my toekoms aan jou belowe/I promised you my future
En als wat daarna kom sê my is jy gelowig?/And all that comes after that, tell me are you religious?
Ek't my toekoms aan jou belowe/I promised you my future
En als wat daarna kom sê my is jy gelowig?/And all that comes after that, tell me are you religious?

Erika way
Erika
Erika way
Erika ver weg van my

Sê my is jy/Tell me are you
Ook verslaan?/Also defeated?
As ons nog kon raak/If we could still touch
Sou ons weer opstaan?/Would we be able to rise again?

Ek dink ek ken nog die pad/I think I still know the way
Tot by jou huis en waar my draaie opraak/Up to your house and where my errands end
Jy't gesê ek moet liewer ry/You said I should rather leave
Maar iets van jou het in geklim en is nog by my/But something of you climbed in and is still with me

Ek't my toekoms aan jou belowe/I promised you my future
En als wat daarna kom sê my is jy gelowig?/And all that comes after that, tell me are you religious?
Ek't my toekoms aan jou belowe/I promised you my future
En als wat daarna kom sê my is jy gelowig?/And all that comes after that, tell me are you religious?

Erika way
Erika
Erika way
Erika ver weg van my
