| waarheen hardloop jy my liewe kind | | where are you running my dear child |
| waarheen hardloop jy my liewe kind | | where are you running my dear child |
| as jou voetjies, alles om jou stofskop | | as your little feet kick up everything around you with dust |
| | | |
| doef jou kleine hartjie teen jou slape | | pulse your little heart against your temples |
| wat sê jou verstandjie gevries in angs | | what says your little mind frozen in panic |
| voetjies dra my net | | little feet just carry me |
| voetjies dra my net | | little feet just carry me |
| dat ek deur hierdie oorlogstofstorm | | that through this warring storm of dust |
| my weg kan vind | | I may find my way |
| oë wat nael na enige veilige punt | | eyes that speed to any point of safety |
| Here! GOD!! Ek is k-i- n - d!!! | | Lord! GOD! I am a ch-i- l - d!!! |
