Tweede Kans(original) |
| Daar was 'n tyd in hierdie lewe |
| Wat ek vrede wou maak |
| Met die hartseer en alleenheid |
| Wat so hard met my praat |
| Nou sit ek op die vlaktes |
| Van die ou Transvaal |
| En elk van my gedagtes |
| Voel asof hulle verdwaal |
| Na 'n moontlikheid van môre |
| En 'n hart wat lief kan hê |
| Sonder twyfel dat daar tog 'n rede was |
| Want ek weet dat ek weet |
| Hoe jy my soen vanaand |
| En jou oë styf toe maak |
| Jy sal my nooit verlaat |
| En ek klou aan jou vas |
| Vir lewe en dood |
| Want ek weet dat ek weet |
| Tweede kans gekry |
| Daar is spyt in hierdie lewe |
| Wat jou moedeloos maak |
| Maar die waarheid wat verenig |
| Is genoeg om heel te maak |
| Nou staan ons op 'n bladsy |
| Van 'n ou verhaal |
| En elk van hierdie woorde |
| Sal ons rigting nou bepaal |
| (translation) |
| There was a time in this life |
| Which I wanted to make peace |
| With the sadness and loneliness |
| Which speaks so loudly to me |
| Now I sit on the plains |
| From the old Transvaal |
| And each of my thoughts |
| Feel like they are lost |
| To a possibility of tomorrow |
| And a heart that can love |
| No doubt there was a reason |
| Because I know that I know |
| How you kiss me tonight |
| And close your eyes tight |
| You will never leave me |
| And I'm clinging to you |
| For life and death |
| Because I know that I know |
| Got a second chance |
| There are regrets in this life |
| What makes you discouraged |
| But the truth that unites |
| Is enough to make whole |
| Now we are on a page |
| From an old tale |
| And each of these words |
| Will determine our direction now |
