Текст и перевод песни Tabitha - Lied van Ruth - My Land Is Jou Land

Lied van Ruth - My Land Is Jou Land

Ek is n vreemde hier
Ek het my land gelos
Ek het jou pad gekruis
Ek het jou spoor gevolg
Jy het gesê gaan terug
Moe nie op my vertrou
Maar jy's 'n deel van my
Wat doen ek sonder jou
En ek weet die toekoms is onseker
En die donker is digby
En ek weet ons wag 'n lang reis
Reg deur die woestyn
Reg deur die woestyn

Maar jou land is my land
Jou volk is my volk
Jou taal is my taal
En jouw God is my God
En jouw droom is my droom
Jou pad is my pad
Jou toekoms my toekoms
Jou hart in my hart

Ek weet jou volk is bang
Voor ons wat anders is
Maar ek sal brugge bou
Daar waar die afgrond is
En ek sal terugverlang
Daar waar die wind sal waai
Wat uit die suide kom
Van my geboorte grond
Maar ek sal sterk wees
En ek sal oorleef
Want ek wil naas jou staan
Al sal dit moeilyk wees
Al sal dit moeilyk wees

Maar jou land is my land
Jou volk is my volk
Jou taal is my taal
En jouw God is my God
En jouw droom is my droom
En jouw pad is my pad
Jou toekoms my toekoms
Jou hart is my hart
Jou deel is my deel
Jou brood is my brood
Jou lewe imy lewe
Jou dood is my dood
En wanneer die donker kom
En jou mense my ontwyk
Sal ek my liefde gee
Totdat die haat verdwyn
Totdat die haat verdwyn
Want jou huis is my huis
Jou angs is my angs
Jou stilte my stilte
Jou land is my land

Song of Ruth - My Land Is Your Land

I am a stranger here
I have left my land
I have crossed your path
I have followed your trail
You have said go back
Don't count on me
But you're a part of me
What do I do without you
And I know the future is uncertain
And the dark is near
And I know we have a long journey ahead of us
Right through the desert
Right through the desert

But your land is my land
Your people are my people
Your language is my language
And your God is my God
And your dream is my dream
Your path is my path
Your future my future
Your heart in my heart

I know your people are afraid
Of us who are different
But I will build bridges
Where there is a chasm
And I will yearn
For the wind that will blow
That comes from the south
From the land of my birth
But I will be strong
And I will survive
For I want to stand beside you
Even though it will be difficult
Even though it will be difficult

But your land is my land
Your people are my people
Your language is my language
And your God is my God
And your dream is my dream
And your path is my path
Your future my future
Your heart my heart
Your portion is my portion
Your bread is my bread
Your life is my life
Your death is my death
And when the darkness comes
And your people shun me
I will give my love
Until the hate disappears
Until the hate disappears
For your home is my home
Your fear is my fear
Your silence my silence
Your land is my land
