Текст и перевод песни Ampie - Keanu

Keanu

Ek gaan jou als van jou oupa vertel
Al is hy weg voor my oë, hy was ń rots van ń Pêl
Hy sal altyd leef binne en vir altyd leef binne jou

Doen wat jy lief het, vergeet van die geld
Wees goed vir mense, wees ń sprokiesboek held
Help ń tannie oor die straat as niemand Vir Jou kyk
En doen dit want jy wil
Nie om ander te verlei

Keanu my Seun, ek Kan nie glo jy het my hart gewen
Altyd en ewig in my bors ingepen
ń Liefde wat ek nooit hoef te vrees
Wees lief Vir Jou ma, Kyk op na jou suster en huil soos ń man
Wanneer jy so voel daar is niks om te vrees nie
Om weer te probeer en ń lig Vir jou vriende te wees

Wees ń man van kuns, speel kitaar om ń vuur
Hê ń oog vir ń kunswerk en ń vleuelklavier
Wees een met die geestelike wêreld en bid
Ek wil jou nie voorskryf nie
Maar lees ń Koos gedig

Speel saggies met Shady, ń hond is jou vriend
Raak ń Boer se hart, lag soveel uit jou pens
Wees ń bok vir sport, want die lewe is kort
Meer as wat jy nou dink
Jy sal nog ouer word

Keanu my Seun, ek Kan nie glo jy het my hart gewen
Altyd en ewig in my bors ingepen
ń Liefde wat ek nooit hoef te vrees
Wees lief Vir Jou ma, Kyk op na jou suster en huil soos ń man
Wanneer jy so voel daar is niks om te vrees nie
Om weer te probeer en ń lig Vir jou vriende te wees

En kry vir jou ń vrou, wat werklik van jou hou
Nie oor wat jy besit nie
Jy kan haar maar Trou

Keanu

I'm going to tell you about your grandfather
Though he's gone from my sight, he was a pillar of a man
He will always live inside you and live inside you forever

Do what you love, forget about the money
Be good to people, be a hero
Help an old woman across the street when no one is looking
And do it because you want to
Not to impress others

Keanu my son, I can't believe you captured my heart
Always and forever engraved in my chest
A love that I never have to worry about
Be good to your mother, look up to your sister, and cry like a man
When you feel like there's nothing to look forward to
To try again, and be a light to your friends

Be a man of art, play guitar by a fire
Have an eye for a work of art and a grand piano
Be one with the spiritual world and pray
I don't want to tell you what to do
But read a Koos poem

Play softly with Shady, a dog is your friend
Touch a farmer's heart, laugh from your gut
Be a buck for sports, because life is short
More than you think now
You will still grow old

Keanu my son, I can't believe you captured my heart
Always and forever engraved in my chest
A love that I never have to worry about
Be good to your mother, look up to your sister, and cry like a man
When you feel like there's nothing to look forward to
To try again, and be a light to your friends

And find yourself a woman, who truly loves you
Not for what you have
You can marry her
