Na tien jaar

Dis ‘n droom, ‘n baie lang slaap
of
die hemel!
Tien engele voor my deur –
hulle't die verlede van die hede geskeur.
Ek staan in een massiewe huis,
die mense van Suid-Afrika is hier tuis.
Dit babbel, dit wemel, die tonge is los -
Suid-Afrikaners almal onder een groot karos!

It is a dream, a very long sleep
or
paradise!
Ten angels at my door at last –
to tear the present from the past..
I'm standing in a massive house with a dome,
where all South Africans feel at home.
They chatter, and wiggle, free tongues and free feet -
South Africans, all huddling under one sheet!
