hairlesshead Isn't the music just beautiful :) Well I have a friend in Iran of all places and she plays piano... I wanted her to hear this beautiful piece and also understand how beautiful a story these words tell. If you look for me under the new comments the translation is there. (well, I tried :) I don't know where you are from, maybe you understand a bit listning to afrikaans but don't speak it. Regardless, there's the translation :)
Twee jaar hier in die woestyn, vanoggend huil ek my oë uit, verlany my dood na die Kaap, my hartsmense - dankie Tannie Laurika vir jou ewigdurende geskenk...bittersoet mooi herinneringe van gister gesprekke
Liewe Laurika My naam is Oech en ek is so hartelik, onvoorwaardelik verlief op jou musiek. As ek huil in die aand dan luister ek net na een van jou liedjies en ek word terug gevat na toe ek 5 was en jy die antwoord was vir als. Stille water en diepe grond soos in my hart Laurika. Jy is die begin en einde van my smart. xoxo. Eugene Oech

Hallo, ek is uit Mexiko en ek wil regtig om Afrikaans te leer. Dit is baie interessant. Ek het nie 'n baie gebruik vir dit nie, maar dit is nog intrige
00:16 You said our love, would stand solid without motion Even if all the mountains, should tumble into the ocean Do me a small favor, just before you leave this devotion Toss for me a small stone, a small stone into the ocean 00:51Who shall this love, understand so soon? Closer than a heart beat, further than the moon There is a time to arrive, and a time to leave This I read somewhere but, how will I ever understand. 1:25 See the crescent moon slowly sinking Into the stillness of the ocean CHORUS 1:40 Still the waters, deep the ground Down below the devil, below the devil lurks around 2:02 Maybe love is just a - fantasy, It’s not all moonshine and roses you see For a little while you were, by my side Did you love me a just a little, a little that you did so hide? 2:37 Maybe there’s a place, for just us two Far beyond the mountains, of the moon 2:52 And when the moon rises again, remembering as I do That for a little while, I also loved you too 3:12 For a little while, I also loved you too This is a translation (as best I could to just quickly listen and type) It is for them to understand the words of the lyrics that were written so well in this song. The music is already so beautiful and I believe that understanding the meaning of this amazing song makes it even a bit more special also. Feel free to let me know if there's parts I can translate with better words. But it's not meant to be for singing it in English :) All words (even translated) I credit to the artist and writer of this song)
Hey mate, you can just delete my comment and edit this into yours but here's a bit more of a grammatical translation: You said our love would stand strong Even if all the mountains crumble/tumble into the ocean. Do me favor, before you go Throw a pebble, a pebble into the ocean for me Who can really ever understand (this thing called) love. Closer than a heartbeat Further than the moon There is a time to come, and a time to go. This is what I've read, but how will I ever really understand. And look...how the cresent moon sets Into the Pacific (also means silent/still, double meaning) ocean. Still waters run deep (translated idiom, literal: still waters deep ground) Below lurks the devil (literal: Below the devil turns around) Maybe love is just a, fantasy It's not all moonlight and roses For a little while, you were beside me Were you just a little, just a little bit in love with me? Maybe there's a place for us two together Far beyond the mountains...on the moon And when the moon rises (again), I'll remember: For a little while, I was just a little bit in love with you For a little while, I was just a little bit in love with you
Een prachtig lied in de mooiste taal die er is . Groet uit Nederland .
I am English speaking but I have a great appreciation for this ladies voice and her wonderful melodies - beautiful singing by Laurika.
Listening to this beautiful song from my childhood all the way from New Jersey USA. What a wonderful tool utube can be!
I do not speak a word of Afrikaans, however I love listening to Laurika Rauch. Music is the true language of us all.

She does have the most incredible soulful voice, doesn't she?

Laurika is 'n fyn sangeres, lekker ontspan met haar liedjies.
Groet uit Delft NL.
Dis eenvoudig die mooiste liedjie ek al gehoor 💜
Net eenvoudig fantasmagories mooi, raak skoon verlore in die liedjie. Laurika weet hoe om hartsnare te roer. Pragtig.
Dis mos hoe Afrikaanse musiek moet klink, met regte lirieke! Nie daai baby tjoklits strond nie!!

Jy praat klaar mooi jong. Oefen net wanneer jy kan en kyk baie afrikaanse films en stories. En lees. Dis maklik om afrikaans te lees.
Beautiful Memorie
Laurika, jy is briljant!!
"was jy net 'n bietjie...net 'n bietjie lief vir my?" ~ ai sooo mooi, dankie vir die deel 2BoschMann x
Hierdie is my absolute gunsteling Laurika liedjie!!!
Altyd een van my gunstelinge liedjies. Maak my hart seer maar vir goeie redes an memories.
Kosbaar en 'n diep song , dankie Laurika.
Die Tannie kan sing, en bleddie mooi musiek skryf.
Que bonita canción..!!
Glo nie daars woorde mooier en 'n stem so awesome soos Laurika om die boodskap oor te kon gee nie
Dankie Laurika, baie mooi liedjie
ek kan die tv reeks onder draai die duiwel rond nog onthou!! Elke keer as ek die liedjie hoor dan dink ek terug aan my kinder dae
So mooi, ek huil nou
Wonder, ek of daar 'n afrikaanse woord is vir "AWESOME" - dis wat Laurika is, was, en altyd sal wees.
Willem J Asemrowend!
Geen woorde hoe goed dié liedjie is nie
Afrikaans at its best!
L0o0o0o0ove di song.....!!!!
Wow!!
SO toor mens met die Afrikaanse taal...
00:16 You said our love, would stand solid without motion
Even if all the mountains, should tumble into the ocean
Do me a small favor, just before you leave this devotion
Toss for me a small stone, a small stone into the ocean
00:51Who shall this love, understand so soon?
Closer than a heart beat, further than the moon
There is a time to arrive, and a time to leave
This I read somewhere but, how will I ever understand.
1:25 See the crescent moon slowly sinking
Into the stillness of the ocean
CHORUS
1:40 Still the waters, deep the ground
Down below the devil, below the devil lurks around
2:02 Maybe love is just a - fantasy,
It’s not all moonshine and roses you see
For a little while you were, by my side
Did you love me a just a little, a little that you did so hide?
2:37 Maybe there’s a place, for just us two
Far beyond the mountains, of the moon
2:52 And when the moon rises again, remembering as I do
That for a little while, I also loved you too
3:12 For a little while, I also loved you too

Maybe love is just a, fantasy
It's not all moonlight and roses
For a little while, you were beside me
Were you just a little, just a little bit in love with me?
Maybe there's a place for us two together
Far beyond the mountains...on the moon
And when the moon rises (again), I'll remember:
For a little while, I was just a little bit in love with you
For a little while, I was just a little bit in love with you
You did a marvellous job! Thank you.
So bittersoet! Herinner my so aan iemand waarmee ek n tydjie deurgebring het.
baie mooi love it
