Translation of the song lyrics Oop Vir Misinterpretasie - Fokofpolisiekar

Oop Vir Misinterpretasie (original)

Net die skoon word vermoor
Net die sag kry seer
Net die jonk glo
Soos wat net die jonk van hart kan glo
Elke jaar gaan vinniger verby
Daar is geen konstantes nie
My ideaal is net 'n skadu teen die muur
Kunsmatig of nie
Dis my kennis, my vuur
Alhoewel mens nooit kan seker wees oor enige iets nie
My skoene is deur vroue slawe in die verre-ooste gemaak
Dis nie my skuld nie
My korttermyn geheue verval
Tersiere opvoeding nietig verklaar
Dis nie my skuld nie
Net die skoon word vermoor
Net die sag kry seer
Net die jonk glo
Soos wat net die jonk van hart kan glo
Elke jaar gaan vinniger verby
Moet nie bekommer nie
Jou verbeelding spring jou voor
Dit was nog altyd so
'n mens kan baie praat
Tog sukkel om sin te maak
Almal weet perspektief
Is nie 'n speelding nie
My vriende se bediendes het hulle met liefde groot gemaak
Dis nie my skuld nie
Ek herinner myself aan my pa
Hulle moes grens toe gaan
Dis nie my skuld nie
Net die skoon word vermoor
Net die sag kry seer
Net die jonk glo
Soos wat net die jonk van hart kan glo

Oop Vir Misinterpretasie (translation)

Only the clean are killed
Only the soft gets hurt
Only the young believe
As only the young at heart can believe
Every year passes faster
There are no constants
My ideal is just a shadow against the wall
Artificial or not
It's my knowledge, my fire
Although one can never be sure about anything
My shoes were made by women slaves in the far east
It's not my fault
My short term memory expires
Tertiary education declared invalid
It's not my fault
Only the clean are killed
Only the soft gets hurt
Only the young believe
As only the young at heart can believe
Every year passes faster
Do not worry
Your imagination jumps out at you
It has always been like this
one can talk a lot
Still struggling to make sense
Everyone knows perspective
Is not a toy
My friends' servants raised them with love
It's not my fault
I remind myself of my father
They had to go to the border
It's not my fault
Only the clean are killed
Only the soft gets hurt
Only the young believe
As only the young at heart can believe
