toe ek vir jou eers sien dans, war was ek?

oo, koue vuur, jy brand my, vir nog ´n uur
ja, ja ja jy wil mos

when i first saw you dance, where was i?
here you are, having fun, take me.
now it´s a winter dance, a bird lies dead
on the window-ledge, your warm hand is inside
oh, look here, we are embracing against the wall
oh, cold fire, you´re burning me, for another hour
yes yes, you want to
yes yes, you want to

afrikaans:
groen meisie
die plek waarvan ek kom
is glad nie so vêr nie
maar dit voel assof dit 'n ander wêreld is.
droëland, die plek se naam
waar die kraans so goud groen en oranje skyn
en die 'anoster bos, wat in elke plekkie grooi
ruik soos die hemel as die stof so swaai.
mense het vir my al van kleins af vertel, van die waternoontjie,
wat daar in die malaaiskloof bly
hulle sê, as 'n mens diep in die kloof in gaan, sal sy jou doodmaak
en jou mooigeid vat.. en dit hou vir haarself
maar daai dag toe dit so gesneeu het
het so 'n spier wit man na ons toegekom
hulle het gesê, hy's van die noord
hy het sulke ver weg blou oë gehad
net soos my ouma s'n
hy het gesê, daar waar hy vanaf kom,
sneeu dit altyd so baie
dit was daai dag van die sneeu, toe ons almal die waternoontjie gehoor sing het
ek het haar aleen gaan soek
almal was te bang
- - -
green girl
the place where i come from
is not that far away
but it feels as if it's another world
droëland.. the place's name
where the cliffs shine a red, gold and orange sheen
and the "anoster" bush, which grows in every little place
smells like heaven when the dust blows
the people there told me from an early age, about the water maiden,
the one who lives there in malaaisklof
they say, if you go deep into this ravine, she will kill you..
and take your beauty.. and keep it for herself
but that day, when it snowed so much,
a very white man came to us
they said that he was from the north
he had far away blue eyes
just like my grandmother's eyes.
he told us that, where he comes from, it always snows so much
it was that day of the snow, when we all heard the water maiden sing
i went alone to look for her
everyone else was too scared

afrikaans:
maak gou
ek wil wegkrrip van jou donker oë
jy wil vir my hê, dis waarlik so
dis ´n warm aand, ek lê ek sien vir jou
dis ´n koue maan, ek wil vir jou vashou
kom met my, kom nou, maak gou
wil jy my seermaak, kom en dans met my
ek gaan jou vreksteek, jy´t jou kans gekry
ek voel die bloed tap oor die vastrap vloer
ek voel jou liefde oor my litte roer
kom met my, kom nou, maak gou
- - -
hurry up
i want to hide away from your dark eyes
you want me, it´s truly so
it´s a hot night, i lie down and see you
it is a cold moon. i want to hold you.
come with me, come now, hurry up
do you want to hurt me? come and dance with me
i am going to stab/fuck you to death, you've had your chance
i can feel your blood flowing on the vastrap floor
I can feel your love moving over my limbs
come with me, come now, hurry up

kokerboom dood
kokerboom dood, jy vat my
woestyn van my vel, ek wag, ek wag vir jou
bloed teen my wang, die dorings
die jags in jou stem, vir my moet jy onthou
nee, maar is dit jy, lê binne my
ja, die jakkals moet die slang aanlei
sand in my mond, ek vat jou
in fynboskooi, die stêrre droom alleen
maan in jou oog, ´n skerp mes
my volboskooi, die wind wat waai wydsbeen
quiver-tree death
quiver-tree death, you take me
desert of my skin, i´m waiting, i´m waiting for you
blood against my cheek, the thorns
the sex in your voice, you must remember me
no, but is it you lying inside me
yes, the jakkal must seduce the snake
sand in my mouth, i take you
a fynbos-bed, the stars dream alone
moon in your eye, a sharp knife
my tumble-weed bed, the wind that blows with legs apart
