Our translations: ENG
Op my ou ramkiekie met nog net een snaar speel ek in die maanskyn deurmekaar As die maan my aanhoor en die sterre knik dan speel ek kordaat voort in my skik Wat gee ek om mense wat sê ek's mal as die varings my aanhoor by die wal? Wat om my vrinde wat nooit nie verstaan as die sterre my toeknik en die maan? Op my ou ramkiekie met nog net een snaar speel ek in die maanskyn deurmekaar
