Nij begjin
'k stean hjir boppe op'e dyk
sjoch unrêstich oer it waad
griene fjilden, see en slyk
bringe tinzen oer myn paad
om my hinne hurde wyn
'k rûk de see dy't komt ferdwynt
't makket plak foar bliide sin
alles leit iepen in nei begjin
draai'k my om dan sjoch ik lân
wêr't de boer syn ierdappels set
hy wol sinne en ek rein
oars dyt syn gewaaks grif net
om my hinne hurde wyn
'k rûk de see dy't komt ferdwynt
't makket plak foar bliide sin
alles leit iepen in nij begjin

Life is sweet
Life is sweet
humming to
a pretty tune
I've always known somehow
The notes I hear
the instruments
the sounds they make
have not yet been invented here
Life is sweet
colouring
my days with harmony
inside
Frequencies
of green and blue
pink and yellow
cannot describe
how I feel
Pinks and yellows
cannot describe
how happy
I feel
1998, JV
