Lyrics - Afrikaans
(Folk song)
Hulle sê daar’s ‘n man in die maan,
O, ek wil baie graag gaan
met ‘n hoed en ‘n sluier
om net maar te kuier
by daardie ou man in die maan.
English Translation - They Say There's a Man in the Moon
They say there’s a man in the moon,
Oh, I’d love to go
with a hat and a veil
just to visit
that old man in the moon.
