Translation of the song Ek Wens Elke Dag Was Kersfees artist ADAM (South Africa)
Ek Wens Elke Dag Was Kersfees
I Wish Every Day Was Christmas
Ek krap in die kas vir die mooiste papier
I take the most beautiful paper from the cupboard
Bind dit toe met n lint om dit te versier
I bind it with a ribbon to decorate it
Want die dag kom net een keer per jaar
Because this day comes only once a year
Daarom doen ek die spesiaal net vir haar
So I do this special thing for her
Want vandag is dit weer Kersfees
Because today it's Christmas again
Al die liggies wat so brand
All the lights are burning
Daar’s hoop en vrede op aarde
There's hope and piece on the earth
Al is dit net vir vanaand
Even if it's only for today
Want dit voel vir my soos Kersfees
Because for me it feels like Christmas
Met jou hier aan my hand
With you here on my hand
Ons sien die Suider-Kruis wat skyn
We see the Southern Cross wshining
Ons liefde vat weer vlam
Our love takes its flames again
Ons familie bid weer saam
Our family is praying together again
Dis mos waaroor Kersfees gaan
That's what Christmas is all about
Ek wens elke dag was Kersfees want dan
I wish every day was Christmas, because then
Elke, dag van ons lewe, is ons saam
We would be together in every day of our lives
Al ons stemme weergalm deur die vuur
Our voices echo through the fire
Ma en pa en my geliefdes is ook hier
Mum and Dad and all my loved ones are here
Die branders breek so sag met die koms van die gety
The waves break so softly with the arrival of the tide
Mag die aand vir ewig by ons bly
The evening might stay with us forever
Want vandag is dit weer Kersfees
Because today it's Christmas again
Al die liggies wat so brand
All the lights are burning
Daar’s hoop en vrede op aarde
There's hope and piece on the earth
Al is dit net vir vanaand
Even if it's only for today
Want dit voel vir my soos Kersfees
Because for me it feels like Christmas
Met jou hier aan my hand
With you here on my hand
Ons sien die Suider-Kruis wat skyn
We see the Southern Cross wshining
Ons liefde vat weer vlam
Our love takes its flames again
Ons familie bid weer saam
Our family is praying together again
Dis mos waaroor Kersfees gaan
That's what Christmas is all about
Ek wens elke dag was Kersfees want dan
I wish every day was Christmas, because then
Elke, dag van ons lewe, is ons saam
We would be together in every day of our lives
Ek wens dat elke mens,
I wish that everyone's eyes
Se oe oop sal gaan
open up
En weet U’s gebore
And that everyone know that
Eeue trug, op hierdie aand
He was born, centuries back, on this night
Want vandag is dit weer Kersfees
Because today it's Christmas again
Al die liggies wat so brand
All the lights are burning
Daar’s hoop en vrede op aarde
There's hope and piece on the earth
Al is dit net vir vanaand
Even if it's only for today
Want dit voel vir my soos Kersfees
Because for me it feels like Christmas
Met jou hier aan my hand
With you here on my hand
Ons sien die Suider-Kruis wat skyn
We see the Southern Cross wshining
Ons liefde vat weer vlam
Our love takes its flames again
Ons familie bid weer saam
Our family is praying together again
Dis mos waaroor Kersfees gaan
That's what Christmas is all about
Ek wens elke dag was Kersfees want dan
I wish every day was Christmas, because then
Elke, dag van ons lewe, is ons saam
We would be together in every day of our lives
