"Sarie Marais" South African Second Boer War Song ~ (Lyrics)

Afrikaans:
Sarie Marais is 'n bekende lied deur J.P. Toerien, geskep tydens die Eerste Vryheidsoorlog (ca. 1880) of die Tweede Vryheidsoorlog (ca. 1900). Die melodie is 'n verwerking van 'n Engelstalige liedjie genaamd "Ellie Rhee" wat uit die Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog dateer. Dit is 'n baie bekende Afrikaanse volksliedjie en is al in ander tale vertaal. Dit verwys waarskynlik na 'n persoon wat werklik geleef het, Sarie Maré, maar weens 'n drukfout is die spelling "Sarie Marais" behou.
English:
Sarie Marais is a famous song by J.P. Toerien, created during the First War of Independence (ca. 1880) or the Second War of Independence (ca. 1900). The tune is an adaptation of an English language song called "Ellie Rhee" dating from the American Civil War. It is a very well-known Afrikaans folk song and has been translated into other languages. It probably refers to a person who actually lived, Sarie Maré, but due to a typo, the spelling "Sarie Marais" was retained.

On a personal note, Sarie Marais always reminds me of the love of my life, a sweet, beautiful, blonde Afrikaner girl from my past. Yup, for me at least, she was the one that got away.

Minha Sarie Marais está tão longe do meu coração1
Mas espero vê-la novamente.
Ela morava no bairro do Rio Mooi,
No entanto, antes que a guerra tivesse começado.
[Refrão:]
Oh, traga-me de volta ao velho Transvaal,
Onde minha Sarie mora.
Lá embaixo no milho, junto ao espinheiro verde,
Lá vive meu Sarie Marais,
Para baixo no milho na árvore de espinho verde
Lá vive meu Sarie Marais.
Eu estava com tanto medo que os Khakis me pegassem
E enviar para longe através do mar;
Então eu fugi para o lado da areia de Upington
Descendo ao longo do Grande Rio.
[Refrão]
Os Khakis são como um crocodilo, uma praga,
Eles sempre o arrastam para a água;
Eles te jogam em um navio para uma longa, longa viagem,
Quem sabe para onde.
[Refrão]
A libertação veio e o retorno para casa estava lá,
De volta ao antigo Transvaal;
Minha querida certamente estará lá também
Para me recompensar com um beijo.

I've always wondered what the Dutch government's position was about the war

[@Felix-bx7fx]

They kept good commerical relations with Britain, as only the German government officially supported the Boer republics, although a massive implication of the Dutch private sectors and society gave financial supports and firearms and the Dutch government's decision was widely protested against in Dutch cities. On the other hand, the governors of the Dutch Indies stood in favor of the Boer republics and also gave firearms and support. At the time of the Anglo-Boer war, there was a large discourse going on between the metropolitan government and the indies colonial government, so the Netherlands were kind of split politically speaking

[@nirvana3921]

@@Felix-bx7fx I see. I don't know much about that history. But I know that the Dutch community in North America was pro-Boer at the time. After all, most of the Boers are descendants of the Dutch. This kinship would make the Dutch people support their fellow South Africans.

Why does the ZAR have Natal in the map?

[@dutchskyrimgamer.youtube2748]

Because the entirety of Natal was claimed by Transvaal at some point.

[@gertvanniekerk46]

@@dutchskyrimgamer.youtube2748 Incorrect-Northern Natal was given to the Afrikaner by the Zulu King, if I remember correctly Thembo, because 1) The Afrikaners broke the might of the Brutal King Dingaan who murdered Thembo's half-brother, the famous Chaka Zulu. 2) The Afrikaners recovered a massive amount of cattle stolen by the Sesotho from Thembo 3) The Afrikaners helped various Zulu tribes to stabilize and live in harmony until the English empire brutally disrupted the Whole of South Africa!

why is natal included in Transvaal?

[@riaanvanwyk175]

Natalia was the section dingaan of Zulu land. Shaka's brother sold to piet retief. They couldn't farm those arid regions. The bits cleared the entire area for sugar plantations using Indian slaves. Boers paid workers and helped them to establish their own republic called Stella land. Currently the bushman language is not recognized and they are classified as mixed race at birth. Ironic since they were The first people in Africa all the way to the Sahara.

​@barrycushing1402 yes you're right, I know from my German/Austrian ancestry they protested against the roman catholic religion and therefore was banned out of Europe and came to the Southern point of Africa after the Dutch set foot to seek a new life. Actually I think the German/Austrian people settled in South West Africa which is known today as Namibia.
