Verre Land(original) |
| Daar’s 'n ver, verre land, skone land |
| Waar die sonlig so rein helder skyn |
| Dis 'n droomland vir my wat my hart en siel bekoor |
| En ek weet ek moet antwoord as ek daardie roepstem hoor: |
| Vaderland! |
| Dis so ver hiervandaan; |
| Dis nou tyd, sê vaarwel, ek moet gaan, ek moet gaan, ek moet gaan… |
| Oor die see wil ek reis na 'n ver paradys |
| Waar die branders bruis en oestydwinde suis — |
| Daardie ver, verre land lok my aan… |
| Hier kan ek nie versuim, ek moet gaan, ek moet gaan, ek moet gaan… |
| Oor die see wil ek reis na 'n ver paradys |
| Waar die branders bruis en oestydwinde suis — |
| Daardie ver, verre land lok my aan… |
| Hier kan ek nie versuim, ek moet gaan, ek moet gaan, ek moet gaan… |
| (translation) |
| There's a far, far country, beautiful land |
| Where the sunlight shines so pure bright |
| It's a dreamland for me that enchants my heart and soul |
| And I know I have to answer when I hear that call: |
| Vaderland! |
| It's so far from here; |
| It's time now, say goodbye, I have to go, I have to go, I have to go… |
| I want to travel across the sea to a far paradise |
| Where the waves roar and the harvest winds blow - |
| That far, far away country attracts me… |
| Here I can not fail, I have to go, I have to go, I have to go… |
| I want to travel across the sea to a far paradise |
| Where the waves roar and the harvest winds blow - |
| That far, far away country attracts me… |
| Here I can not fail, I have to go, I have to go, I have to go… |
