De La Rey(original) |
Op 'n berg in die nag |
Lê ons in donker en wag |
In die modder en bloed lê ek koud |
Streepsak en reën kleef teen my |
En my huis en my plaas tot kole verbrand |
Sodat hulle ons kan vang |
Maar daai vlamme en vuur |
Brand nou diep, diep binne my |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Sal jy die Boere kom lei? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Generaal, generaal |
Soos een man, sal ons om jou val |
Generaal De La Rey |
Oor die Kakies wat lag |
'N handjie van ons teen 'n hele groot mag |
En die kranse lê hier teen ons rug |
Hulle dink dis verby |
Maar die hart van 'n Boer lê dieper en wyer |
Hulle gaan dit nog sien |
Op 'n perd kom hy aan |
Die Leeu van die Wes Transvaal |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Sal jy die Boere kom lei? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Generaal, generaal |
Soos een man, sal ons om jou val |
Generaal De La Rey |
De La Rey, De La Rey sal jy die Boere kom lei? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Generaal, generaal |
Soos een man, sal ons om jou val |
Generaal De La Rey |
Want my vrou en my kind |
Lê in 'n kamp en vergaan |
En die Kakies se murg loop oor |
'N nasie wat weer op sal staan |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Sal jy die Boere kom lei? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Generaal, generaal |
Soos een man, sal ons om jou val |
Generaal De La Rey |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Sal jy die Boere kom lei? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Generaal, generaal |
Soos een man, sal ons om jou val |
Generaal De La Rey |
Generaal, generaal |
Sal jy die Boere kom haal? |
(translation) |
On a mountain at night |
Lay us in the dark and wait |
In the mud and blood I lie cold |
Stripe bag and rain cling to me |
And my house and my farm burned to the ground |
So they can catch us |
But those flames and fire |
Burn now deep, deep inside me |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Will you come and lead the Boers? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
General, general |
Like one man, we will fall around you |
General De La Rey |
About the Khakis laughing |
A handful of us against a very great power |
And the cliffs lie here against our backs |
They think it's over |
But the heart of a Farmer lies deeper and wider |
They're still going to see it |
On a horse he arrives |
The Lion of the Western Transvaal |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Will you come and lead the Boers? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
General, general |
Like one man, we will fall around you |
General De La Rey |
De La Rey, De La Rey will you come and lead the Boers? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
General, general |
Like one man, we will fall around you |
General De La Rey |
Because my wife and my child |
Lie in a camp and perish |
And the Khakis' marrow runs over |
A nation that will rise again |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Will you come and lead the Boers? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
General, general |
Like one man, we will fall around you |
General De La Rey |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
Will you come and lead the Boers? |
De La Rey, De La Rey |
General, general |
Like one man, we will fall around you |
General De La Rey |
General, general |
Will you come and fetch the Boers? |
