Lyrics and translation Dozi - Pa Se Song

Pa Se Song

Pa se Song
'N Dag se loon, koue sjieling en 'n kroon
Wat hart en siel aanmekaar moes hou
En glo in die more, in die middag, In die nag

My pa se hand word 'n boom se bas
Regverdige hand wat die rigting kon wys
My pa se hand word 'n boom se kwas
Die jaarringe wat die tyd verpas

'N Bybelse vers word 'n lappieskombers
Sorvuldig oor my toegetrek, Ek het opgemerk
Deur die dae, deur die maande, deur die jare

My pa se hand word 'n boom se bas
Regverdige hand wat die rigting kon wys
My pa se hand word 'n boom se kwas

Die jaarringe wat die tyd verpas
'N Wingerdstok die het oud geword
Latte en lote bewaar die geheim
In die toekoms, die verlede en die nou

Pa Se Song

Pa Se Song
My father's heart, cold soul with a crown
That keeps heart and soul together
And believe in the morning, in the afternoon, in the night

My father's hand becomes the bark of a tree
Righteous hand that could show the way
My father's hand becomes a tree's brush
The annual rings that missed the time

A biblical verse becomes a patchwork quilt
Carefully pulled over me, I noticed
Through the days, through the months, through the years

My father's hand becomes the bark of a tree
Righteous hand that could show the way
My father's hand becomes a tree's brush

The annual rings that missed the time
A vine that has grown old
Laths and shoots keep the secret
In the future, the past and the now
