Lyrics

Jy is my liefling en ek is so bly
Hier die tyd is verby en jy wag nou vir my Daar by jou woning sien ek weer die lug
En ek weet jy, my liefling, is terug
As die maan opkom oor die velde
En die sterretjies skyn in die lug
Dan voel ek so lief vir die wêreld
O ek weet my liefling is nou terug
Jy is my liefling en ek kom vanaand
Met die pad deur die land, deur die hek by die rant
Hier by Oom Willem hoor jy die geblaf
En jy hoor nou die draf van my perd

Lyrics translation

You are my darling and I'm so glad
Here the time is passing and you are now waiting for me There at your home I see again the sky
And I know you, my darling, is back
As the moon rises over the fields
And the stars shine in the sky
Then I feel such love for the world
Oh I know my darling is now back
You are my darling and I come tonight
With the way through the country, through the gate at the ridge
Here at Uncle William do you hear the barking
And you heard the trot of my horse
