Текст и перевод песни Laurika Rauch - Waterval

Waterval

My letters word 'n ou kasteel
Met torings en 'n grag
My woorde word die water wat
Geduldig op jou wag
En my sinne word die tafels
Wat ek dek vir jou koms
En tussen my paragrawe skuil
My diepste vrese soms

Maar my woorde word die waterval
Wat woedend oor jou waak
My stem word sag en helder
As jou hande aan my raak
Maar my woorde word die waterval
Wat woedend oor jou waak
My stem word sag en helder
As jou hande aan my raak

My verse word die kamers
Waar ek heeldag sit en sing
En elke woord en asemteug
Wil my na jou toe bring
En jou briewe word die vensters
Wat ek oopmaak elke nag
En soos die sterre uitkom
Word my harde hart weer sag

Maar my woorde word die waterval
Wat woedend oor jou waak
My stem word sag en helder
As jou hande aan my raak
Maar my woorde word die waterval
Wat woedend oor jou waak
My stem word sag en helder
As jou hande aan my raak

Waterfall

My letters form a castle
With towers and a moat
My words become the water that
Patiently awaits you
And my sentences become the tables
That I set for your arrival
And hidden between my paragraphs
Are my deepest fears sometimes

But my words become the waterfall
That fiercely guards over you
My voice becomes soft and clear
When your hands touch me
But my words become the waterfall
That fiercely guards over you
My voice becomes soft and clear
When your hands touch me

My verses become the rooms
Where I sit and sing all day
And every word and breath
Yearns to bring me closer to you
And your letters become the windows
That I open every night
And just like the stars come out
My hardened heart grows soft again

But my words become the waterfall
That fiercely guards over you
My voice becomes soft and clear
When your hands touch me
But my words become the waterfall
That fiercely guards over you
My voice becomes soft and clear
When your hands touch me
