Achterland(original) |
| Zeg het niet Zeg het niet Zeg het niet Zeg het niet |
| Don’t say it Don’t say it Don’t say it Don’t say it |
| Halve rust betekent: |
| Half rest means: |
| Ontluizen! |
| Delouse! |
| Zij leven enkel van ons bloed |
| They live only from our blood |
| Maar |
| But |
| Van bloed leven ze allen |
| With blood they all live |
| Obussen produceren |
| Producing shells |
| Rantsoenen sturen |
| Sending rations |
| Kruit, kogels |
| Gunpowder, bullets |
| Alles uit het achterland |
| All from the hinterland |
| Uit de neutrale landen |
| From the neutral countries |
| Chauffeurs, meisjes, brancardiers, dokters |
| Chauffeurs, girls, stretcher bearers, doctors |
| Staal maken |
| Making steel |
| Rails gieten |
| Casting rails |
| En de mortieren |
| And the mortars |
| Zeg het niet Zeg het niet Zeg het niet Zeg het niet |
| Don’t say it Don’t say it Don’t say it Don’t say it |
| (Men zou mijn gedachten ook moeten ontluizen) |
| (One should also delouse my thoughts) |
| Van bloed leven ze allen |
| From blood they all live |
| (translation) |
| Don't say it Don't say it Don't say it |
| Don't say it Don't say it Don't say it Don't say it |
| Half rest means: |
| Half rest means: |
| delousing! |
| Delouse! |
| They only live on our blood |
| They live only from our blood |
| But |
| but |
| They all live on blood |
| With blood they all live |
| Produce canisters |
| production shells |
| Send rations |
| Sending rations |
| gunpowder, bullets |
| gun powder, bullets |
| Everything from the hinterland |
| All from the hinterland |
| From the neutral countries |
| From the neutral countries |
| Drivers, girls, stretcher bearers, doctors |
| Drivers, girls, stretcher bearers, doctors |
| Making steel |
| making steel |
| casting rails |
| casting rails |
| And the mortars |
| And the mortars |
| Don't say it Don't say it Don't say it |
| Don't say it Don't say it Don't say it Don't say it |
| (One should delouse my mind too) |
| (One should also delouse my-thoughts) |
| They all live on blood |
| From blood they all live |
