Текст и перевод песни Laurika Rauch - My Hart Is 'n Bok

My Hart Is 'n Bok

Fors gestalte wat hoog bo my uittroon
Gitswart hare en oë hemelblou
By hom sal ek ′n ewigheid kan woon
Hy't die seer van die lewe trotseer en sy mensheid behou

Hy sal veel eerder gee as om te neem
Hy doen dit omdat dit hom vreugde bring
Met hom hier vlak by my voel ek nooit alleen
Ek het geen verweer teen die liefde wat my hart binnedring

En my hart is ′n bok wat teen my ribbes spring
My bloed 'n borrelende rivier wat deur my are bruis
Daar's salige gevaar hier in die arms wat my omkring
Want die liefde dreig om my te vergruis

Nooit sal ek sê vervulling ken ek nie
Dit sal die leuen van alle leuens wees
Die liefde is die mag wat my gebied
Dis die soet op my tong en die vrede diep in my gees

En my hart is ′n bok wat teen my ribbes spring
My bloed ′n borrelende rivier wat deur my are bruis
Daar's salige gevaar hier in die arms wat my omkring
Want die liefde dreig om my te vergruis

En my hart is ′n bok wat teen my ribbes spring
My bloed 'n borrelende rivier wat deur my are bruis
Daar′s salige gevaar hier in die arms wat my omkring
Want die liefde dreig om my te vergruis

Daar's salige gevaar hier in die arms wat my omkring
Want die liefde dreig om my te vergruis
Want die liefde dreig om my te vergruis

My Heart Is a Deer

Before me stands a figure tall
Raven hair and eyes of heavenly blue
With him I could live an eternity
He endured life's pain and retained his humanity

He gives more readily than he takes
He does it because it brings him joy
With him here beside me I never feel alone
I have no defense against the love that penetrates my heart

And my heart is a deer that leaps against my ribs
My blood a bubbling river that surges through my veins
There's blissful danger in these arms that surround me
For love threatens to crush me

Never shall I say I do not know fulfillment
That would be the lie of all lies
Love is the power that governs me
It is the sweetness on my tongue and the peace deep in my spirit

And my heart is a deer that leaps against my ribs
My blood a bubbling river that surges through my veins
There's blissful danger in these arms that surround me
For love threatens to crush me

And my heart is a deer that leaps against my ribs
My blood a bubbling river that surges through my veins
There's blissful danger in these arms that surround me
For love threatens to crush me

There's blissful danger in these arms that surround me
For love threatens to crush me
For love threatens to crush me
