Tuesday 24 February 2015

Ek stap die pad

Uit die diep donkerte roep my volk

Van daar onder waar die water kolk

Eers net ‘n fluistering in die wind

Dan die gille van ‘n benoude kind

 

Eers wou ek nie hoor

Hou ek ‘n dowe oor voor

Ek wou net nie luister

Hoe word my volk geteister

 

Ek soek na verskonings om myself te vermaak

Maar my volk staan in die koue, naak.

Terwyl die son hulle velle verbrand

Vind ek troos in my verstand.

 

Maar al kos dit ook my dood

En jy bevry is van jou nood

En jy my later sal vertrap

Sal ek nogtans die pad vir jou stap.

 

 

L.C.J. Engelbrecht
