Paroles et traduction Chris Chameleon - Epiloog

Epiloog

As die pyn en al die leed
Deur die pleister van tyd genees
En as die lag en lof in herinnering verdof
En as die rougeklaag
Mettertyd vervaag
En as die jubelklank
Verswelg deur die swanesang

As die aande op die strand
En ons wandelinge hand aan hand
In die branders van tyd verspoel
Soos ons spore in die sand
Tot die reis op die lang lang pad
Bestemmingloos verloop my skat
En op die warm swart lint
Ons die toekoms nie meer kan vind

As een, alleen
Betree ons elk die wereld
Alleen gaan ons uit
Elk op sy bestemde tyd
Verniet verniet
Die geskater en verdriet
Wanneer die na-nag kom
En ons sterretjie verskiet...

Sal ek my nooit die genot
Of die gawe wou ontse
Om ooit bemin te word
Of lief te he nie!

Epilogue

When the pain and all the suffering
Heal beneath the plaster of time
And when laughter and praise have faded into memory
And when the lament of rouge
Fades away in time
And when the sound of jubilation
Is swallowed by the swan song

When the evenings on the beach
And our walks hand in hand
Are washed away in the breakers of time
Like our footprints in the sand
Until the journey on the long long path
Runs its aimless course my dear
And on the warm black ribbon
We can no longer find the future

As one, alone
We each enter the world
Alone we will go out
Each in our own time
For nothing nothing
The laughter and the sorrow
When the after-night comes
And our little star shoots away...

Will I never want the pleasure
Or to deny the gift
To ever be loved
Or to love not!
