Ons Sal Self

Hier was niks ‘n paar honderd jare terug
Toe kom ons hier en nou dra ons die gewig
Van ‘n land wat by ons vat
Elke druppel sweet wat ons kon sweet
En hulle weet
 
Ons sal durf en saai waar niks wil groei nie
Niks kan ons maak kniel behalwe God nie
 
Ons sal self
Maak soos ons gemaak het
Begin soos ons begin het
Oorwin het
Toe alles teen ons staan
en ons sal self
As jy ons nie wil lei nie
As jy ons niks wil gee nie
Dit keer nie
Wat ons nog aan bereik nie
Ons sal self
 
Soos dit is word alles oorgegee
Maar daar is niks wat ons spore weg kan vee
Uit grond wat in ons hart meer as wat ons nodig het kan gee
En ons weet
 
Ons sal durf en saai waar niks wil groei nie
Niks kan ons maak kniel behalwe God nie
 
Ons sal self
Maak soos ons gemaak het
Begin soos ons begin het
Oorwin het
Toe alles teen ons staan
en ons sal self
As jy ons nie wil lei nie
As jy ons niks wil gee nie
Dit keer nie
Wat ons nog aan bereik nie
Ons sal self
 
Na al die jare, ken ons die waarde
Van staan as een man
En ons onthou
Waar ons begin het
Gedink hul ons stilhet
Maar dis wie ons is
Dis wie ons is
 
Ons sal self
Maak soos ons gemaak het
Begin soos ons begin het
Oorwin het
Toe alles teen ons staan
en ons sal self
As jy ons nie wil lei nie
As jy ons niks wil gee nie
Dit keer nie
Wat ons nog aan bereik nie
Ons sal self
 
Maak soos ons gemaak het
Begin soos ons begin het
Oorwin het
Toe alles teen ons staan
en ons sal self
As jy ons nie wil lei nie
As jy ons niks wil gee nie
Dit keer nie
Wat ons nog aan bereik nie
Ons sal self
 
Translation

We Will

There was nothing here a couple of centuries before
Then we came, and now we carry the weight
Of a land, which contains
All the sweat drops we have sweat
And they know
 
We will sow and reap where nothing grows
Nothing can force us to our knees except God
 
We will
Do as we did
Start as we started
And win
When everything is against us
And we will,
Even if you don't want to lead us,
Even if you don't want to give us anything,
That won't stop us
What we haven't achieved yet,
We will
 
As it used to be, everything was given up,
But there is nothing what could erase our tracks
From the ground which gives our hearts more than it needs
And we know
 
We will sow and reap where nothing grows
Nothing can force us to our knees except God
 
We will
Do as we did
Start as we started
And win
When everything is against us
And we will,
Even if you don't want to lead us,
Even if you don't want to give us anything,
That won't stop us
What we haven't achieved yet,
We will
 
After all the years we know the value
Of standing as one man
And we remember
Where we started
They thought we would remain silent,
But that's who we are
That's who we are
 
We will
Do as we did
Start as we started
And win
When everything is against us
And we will,
Even if you don't want to lead us,
Even if you don't want to give us anything,
That won't stop us
What we haven't achieved yet,
We will
 
Do as we did
Start as we started
And win
When everything is against us
And we will,
Even if you don't want to lead us,
Even if you don't want to give us anything,
That won't stop us
What we haven't achieved yet,
We will
