'n Sug

Soos ‘n siel wat swerf in die woestyn

Met die son wat hel oor my skyn

Voel ek eensaam en alleen

Met niemand om op te steun

Verlate, vergete, eensaam en alleen

Staan ‘n enkele boom en kreun

Swaar druk die stilte op my neer

Tot die wind maak my seer

Geen verligting vir my siel

Wanneer ek lag of huil of kniel

Alleen en naak staan die boom

Ver verwyderd van ‘n stroom

Die son brand hard

Neer op my smart

Nie ‘n wolkie in sig

Net ‘n laaste sug

Lukas Engelbrecht

Het ek maar geweet

Van die dag se sonskyn

Die sonskyn se reën

Die reën se donderwolk

Die donderwolk se silwer rand

 

Van die mense se skyn

Die skyn se waarheid

Die waarheid se liefde

Die liefde se seer

 

Van die glimlag se frons

Die frons se traan

Die traan se val

Die val se opstaan

 

Van die geboorte se pyn

Die pyn se lag

Die lag se dood

Die dood se vreugde

Gedagtes

In die diepste gedagtes wat in my wese sit

Plant ek ‘n kaalgatperskepit

Teleurgesteld en baie geskok

Bring dit nie die sap van die wingerdstok

Want die perskepit bring voort

‘n perske na sy soort

 

Dan ruk ek die perskeboom uit

En gooi dit deur die ruit

Waar hy eenkant lê en vrek

Plant ‘n druiwepit in sy plek

Totdat hy sy trosse gee

Sal ek hom van my water gee.

 

Want soos ek my gedagtes verander

Sal my lewe verander

Iewers diep in my klapperkop

Lewer dit sy trosse op

In sy sap kan ek verdrink

‘n positiewe gedagte vir my skink

 

Lukas Engelbrecht

 

Ek is alleen

Moet ek dit nou aanvaar

As ek na die verte staar

Dat ek alleen hier staan

Alleen moet verder gaan

 

Want ek het gesoek en soek

En die Groot Boek gelees

Ek het gesmeek en gevra

En ek het baie gekla

 

Maar die wind is stil

Wat die boodskap bring

Niks van dit wat ek wil

Die windjie bly tjoep tjoep stil

'n Dooie vis

Soos die rivier loop in die see

Sleep die lewe my mee

‘n Perd met ‘n toom

‘n Dooie vis in die stroom

 

So vat die lewe my

Waar hy ookal mag wei

Waar die stroompie ookal vloei

Maak nie saak hoe hard ek roei

 

Op die einde kom alles saam

En wys waarvoor ek staan

Maar die emmer bly steeds leeg

Niks in om te weeg

Ek kyk terug

Ek kyk terug tot op my geboortedag

En wonder wat het ek vermag

En wanneer ek oor die vlaktes loop

Is die koppies net ‘n hoop

 

Want dit wat belangrik was

Is deur die reëen weggewas

Alles wat my pla

Is deur ‘n miskruier weggedra

 

Die saad het ek gesaai

Maar die voëls het dit gemaai

Totdat daar niks oorbly

Van dit alles is ek vry

Hoekom is ek hier?

Hoekom is ek hier?

Wie het my gestuur?

Wat dan is my doel?

Hoekom so baie woel?

 

Wat moes ek kom maak

Of maak dit nie saak?

Want niks het ek vermag

Want leeg was my dag

 

Wat is daar wat ek kan wys?

Nie geld nie ook nie ‘n huis

Die land lê braak agter my

Verniet was die pogings van my

Wense en drome

Enigiets wat jy op kan noem

Dit het ek alles gedoem

Net om uit te vind

Dis soos kaf in die wind

 

Op die wind sweef my wense

Heen oor alle grense

En waar sal dit land

‘n dorre woestynland

 

Die son bak warm op die sand

En verskroei alles op die land

Iewers het daar ‘n wens gelê

Iewers het daar ‘n droom gelê

Hoe kan ek nog glo?

Hoe kan ek nog glo

daar is iemand daar bo?

Na wie ek kan gaan

as my lewe stil gaan staan

 

Vir wie sal ek vra?

Wie sal my dra?

Wie sal my hulp verleen?

Op wie sal ek steun?

 

Na wie sal ek bid

as ek op my ashoop sit?

Wie sal my trane droog?

Wie is my voog?

 

Wanneer die nag oor my kom

En my hart klop soos ‘n trom

Op wie sal ek steun

Of is ek alleen?

Loof en prys

Ek loof en prys U vir my geluk

In alles waarna ek mik

Dit maak nie saak wat die mense sê

Dit is wat ek wil hê

 

Ek loof en prys U vir my geloof

Want U met dit vir my beloof

Sodat ek altyd in U sal glo

Want U dra my so

 

Ek loof en prys U vir die hoop

Dat U alles vir my sal koop

En ek weet dat U altyd naby is

In U teenwoordigheid sal berus

 

Ek loof en prys U vir die liefde

Want almal is my vriende

Dat ek U met hulle kan deel

En niemand dit van my kan steel

Ek leer nog

Baie is my geleer

Baie het ek by geleer

En nou dat ek alles weet

Is daar niks waarteen ek dit kan meet

Nou het ek agtergekom

Ek is heeltemal dom

God Kan

 

Daar is niks wat my kan keer

Want God is in beheer

God is aan bewind

En ek is Sy kind

 

Ek en God is een

Weet jy wat ek meen?

Ons is ‘n span

Daar is niks wat ons nie kan

 

As jy dit nie verstaan

Laat ek jou vertel waarheen om te gaan

Vergeet maar van opstaan

Op jou knieë moet jy gaan

Op die wind se lied

Die windjie steek op

Oor die bloekomboom se top

En sing sy lied ook daar

Deur die bloekom se blaar

 

Saggies wieg die boom

Al staan hy so vroom

Op die ritme van die lied

Wat die windjie hom bied

Alles kom tot Rus

 

Die laatmiddag stilte sak neer

Met die aandete se geur

Die sonnetjie sak

En die windjie raak mak

 

Met ‘n hond wat die stilte versteur

Sy stem die vlaktes in beur

Oorkant die dam teen ‘n boom

Verloor dit dan ook sy stoom

 

Die aarde berei hom voor

Die nag lê voor

Alles kom tot rus

Deur die donker se mus

 

‘n Sonstreep op die horizon

Sê die dag is aan die kom

En wanneer die mens sy ry kry

Is die stilte verby

Wees my Valentine

Hierdie is ‘n dag om te sê: “Ek het jou lief”

‘n dag om te dink aan hoe lief ek jou het

Om na te dink oor ons lewe saam

Deur alles waardeur ons moes gaan

Jy is die sonstraal in my lewe

Jy is my God gegewe

Jy is die glinster van die ster in die nag

Jy is die skitter van ‘n diamond in die dag

Jy is die lied van die oseaan

Die melodie van die bloekomlaan

Jy is die tortelduif se koer

Wat die windjie aanroer

‘n Dag om te dink aan my liefde vir jou

En ‘n lewe wat ons saam moes bou

En al is die ouderdom nou maar eenmaal ons lot

Bly jy een van die mooiste skeppings van God

Lukas Engelbrecht
