Paroles et traduction Karen Zoid feat. Jo Black - Skepe

Skepe

'N Skip word in n hawe gebou.
'N Skip lyk in 'n hawe baie mooi vir my en jou,
Maar dis nie waarvoor skepe gemaak word nie

Die storms en die winde sal waai
Hys jou seile hoog, want een of ander tyd moet die tyding draai.
Laat die kompas van jou siel weer jou hart bepaal.

Kry jou maste reg, haal die anker uit,
In die rigting van die suiderkruis.

Ons is gemaak om uit te gaan
Op die golwe van die diepste oseaan.
Ons vind ons rigting in die sterre en die helder maan.
Ons is gemaak in hoop se naam.
Ons is gemaak om uit te gaan.

Die lewe sal jou gooi en jou rondruk.
Soms voel dit of jy sink, maar jy moet net jou voete soos Petrus vind.
En dalk net weer glo soos 'n kind.

Hou net koers, want soms kom die twyfel.
Dit gaan meer oor hoe jy opstaan en minder oor hoe jy struikel.
Moenie vrees as die waters rof raak nie.

Tel jou skouers op.
Voel jou hart weer klop.

Ons is gemaak om uit te gaan
Op die golwe van die diepste oseaan.
Ons vind ons rigting in die sterre en die helder maan.
Ons is gemaak in hoop se naam.
Ons is gemaak om uit te gaan.

Stuur jou skip nou deur die poorte.
Ons hoop is meer as net leë woorde.
Jy's in beheer van jou bestemming.
Hoe jy daar uitkom is jou eie besluit.

Stuur jou skip nou deur die poorte.
Ons hoop is meer as net leë woorde.
Jy's in beheer van jou bestemming.
Hoe jy daar uitkom is jou eie besluit.

Ons is gemaak om uit te gaan
Op die golwe van die diepste oseaan.
Ons vind ons rigting in die sterre en die helder maan.
Ons is gemaak in hoop se naam.
Ons is gemaak om uit te gaan.

Ships

A ship is built in half.
A ship looks beautiful to you and me in a harbor,
But that's not what ships are made for

The storms and the winds will blow
Raise your sails high, because one day the tide must turn.
Let the compass of your soul determine your heart again.

Get your masts right, pull up the anchor,
In the direction of the southern cross.

We are made to go out
On the waves of the deepest ocean.
We find our direction in the stars and the bright moon.
We are made in the name of hope.
We are made to go out.

Life will throw you and toss you around.
Sometimes it feels like you're sinking, but you just have to find your feet like Peter.
And maybe just believe again like a child.

Just stay on course, because sometimes doubt comes.
It's more about how you get up and less about how you stumble.
Don't be afraid if the waters get rough.

Pick up your shoulders.
Feel your heart beat again.

We are made to go out
On the waves of the deepest ocean.
We find our direction in the stars and the bright moon.
We are made in the name of hope.
We are made to go out.

Send your ship through the gates now.
Our hope is more than just empty words.
You're in control of your destiny.
How you get there is your own decision.

Send your ship through the gates now.
Our hope is more than just empty words.
You're in control of your destiny.
How you get there is your own decision.

We are made to go out
On the waves of the deepest ocean.
We find our direction in the stars and the bright moon.
We are made in the name of hope.
We are made to go out.
