mestreechs volleksleed

Joa diech hubs us oan 't hart gelege, Mestreech door alle ieuwe heen.
Veer bleeve diech altied genege,
En deilde dreufheid en plezeer.
Veer huurde noa dien auw histories,
Te peerd op granpeer ziene sjoet.
Us auge bloonke beij dien glories,
Of perelde bie diene noet.
Wie deks hubs dig neet priesgegeve,
Mer heels dien kroen toch opgeriech.
En ongeknak bis diech gebleve,
Door uzze band van trouw oan diech.
Doarum de hand us touwgestoke,
Ut aug geriech op 't staareleech.
En wurd dat aug daan ins gebroke,
Daan beijt veur us ut aait Mestreech.
Joa diech hubs us oan 't hart gelege,
Mestreech door alle ieuwe heen.
Veer bleeve diech altied genege,
En deilde dreufheid en plezeer.
Veer huurde noa dien auw histories,
Te peerd op granpeer ziene sjoet.
Us auge bloonke beij dien glories,
Of perelde bie diene noet.

Ode to Maastricht

You have always held a place in my heart, Maastricht, through all ages.
I will always be fond of you,
And share joy and sorrow with you.
I listen to your ancient stories,
Riding on my grandfather's shoulders.
My eyes sparkle at your glories,
Or shed tears at your distress.
How often have I not praised you,
And yet raised your crown higher.
And you have remained unyielding,
Through our bond of loyalty to you.
So give me your hand,
Fix your gaze on the star.
And when that gaze is finally broken,
Then for me, there will always be Maastricht.
You have always held a place in my heart,
Maastricht, through all ages.
I will always be fond of you,
And share joy and sorrow with you.
I listen to your ancient stories,
Riding on my grandfather's shoulders.
My eyes sparkle at your glories,
Or shed tears at your distress.
