Breyten Se Brief

As ek vlug in die wind
Word ek die donker se kind
En belydenis die bind my
Met jou tangerine roos tintlint
Word wakker word wakker
Met die newspapergrappe
Vat my ver weg van jou
In Jazz cafe se Omo

So wals my my lief
Laat my in angels believe
Ek het gesê jy is die son
In Breyten se brief
Want hy maak ons huil
Maar jy maak my sien

Sunnyside se poems
Dryf my sweet sherry toe
Het jy 'n clue my baby blue?
My Rosey so true
En daar's dors in die tyd
Sing die Kaap se wind suid
Kom lê in my arms
Ek het als weggesmyt

Maar wals my my lief
Laat my in angels believe
Ek het gesê jy is die son
In Breyten se brief
Want hy maak ons huil
Maar jy maak my sien

En ek skryf jou gedig
Jakaranda in die reën
En die volmaan's eers blind kind
Sy's happy jy's nou clean
Laat my klim om die glimlig
Heel aand wag
Hierdie visions van jou
My Venus se blouvrou

So wals my my lief
Laat my in angels believe
Ek het gesê jy is die son
In Breyten se brief
Want hy maak ons huil
Maar jy maak my sien

So vlug-vlug my kind
In die blou lug my kind
So vlug-vlug my kind
In die blou lug my kind

Breyten's Letter

As fleetly in the wind
I'll become the child of darkness
And confessions bind me
With your mandarine rose hue
Awake Awake
With newspaper jokes
Take me far away from you
In the Jazz Cafe's Omo

So waltz with me my beloved
Let me believe in angels
I said that you are the sun
In Breyten's letter
Because he makes us weep
But you make me see

Sunnyside's poems
My sweet sherry is flowing
Do you have a clue my baby blue?
My Rosey so true
And there is thirst in time
Sing Cape Town's wind south
Come lay in my arms
I have thrown everything away

But waltz with me my beloved
Let me believe in angels
I said that you are the sun
In Breyten's letter
Because he makes us weep
But you make me see

And I will write a poem for you
Jacaranda in the rain
And the full moon's only blind child
She is happy, you're now clean
Let me climb towards the gleam
Waiting all night
These visions of you
My Venus blue woman

So waltz with me my beloved
Let me believe in angels
I said that you are the sun
In Breyten's letter
Because he makes us weep
But you make me see

So fleetly my child
In the blue sky my child
So fleetly my child
In the blue sky my child
