Текст и перевод песни Andriëtte - Pêrel vir 'n Kroon

Pêrel vir 'n Kroon

Ek weet jy is naby my
En ek weet dat waar jy jou vlerke sprei
Jy my hart kan kry
Jy leef in my, vir altyd
Tyd gee en die tyd kan neem
Al was jy geleën, was jou hart 'n seën
Ek sal nooit vergeet
My hart sal weet:

Jy's 'n pêrel vir 'n kroon, 'n kroon
En jy leef binne my
En die tyd moes jou vat
Maar daar's vrede in wat jy vir my moes kom gee
Jy's 'n engel in die hemel
Die hemel waar vandaan jy kom
Ek is diep in my hart so beloon
Met 'n pêrel vir 'n kroon

My trane sal water word
Teen die dorre grond
Sal 'n blom my wond
Laat genees terwyl ek oor jou huil

Jy's 'n pêrel vir 'n kroon, 'n kroon
En jy leef binne my
En die tyd moes jou vat
Maar daar's vrede in wat jy vir my moes kom gee
Jy's 'n engel in die hemel
Die hemel waar vandaan jy kom
Ek is diep in my hart so beloon
Met 'n pêrel vir 'n kroon

Hier, op hierdie plek waar ek staan is juwele niks nie
Maar waarheen my siel eendag gaan, daar wag jy vir my

Jy's 'n pêrel vir 'n kroon, 'n kroon
En jy leef binne my
En die tyd moes jou vat
Maar daar's vrede in wat jy vir my moes kom gee
Jy's 'n engel in die hemel
Die hemel waar vandaan jy kom
Ek is diep in my hart so beloon
Met 'n pêrel vir 'n kroon

A Pearl for a Crown

I know you are near to me
And I know that wherever you spread your wings
You can have my heart
You live in me, forever
Time gives and time can take
Even if you were gone, your heart was a blessing
I shall never forget
My heart shall know:

You are a pearl for a crown, a crown
And you live inside of me
And time had to take you
But there is peace in what you had to come and give to me
You are an angel in heaven
The heaven from where you come
I am so rewarded deep in my heart
With a pearl for a crown

My tears shall become water
Against the dry ground
A flower shall heal my wound
Let it heal while I weep over you

You are a pearl for a crown, a crown
And you live inside of me
And time had to take you
But there is peace in what you had to come and give to me
You are an angel in heaven
The heaven from where you come
I am so rewarded deep in my heart
With a pearl for a crown

Here, on this place where I stand, jewels are nothing
But where my soul shall go one day, you are waiting for me

You are a pearl for a crown, a crown
And you live inside of me
And time had to take you
But there is peace in what you had to come and give to me
You are an angel in heaven
The heaven from where you come
I am so rewarded deep in my heart
With a pearl for a crown
