Slaap, kindjie, slaap

Lullaby

(Afrikaans)

Slaap, kindjie, slaap,
Daar buite loop 'n skaap.
Skapie met witte voetjies,
Drink tog sy melkies so soetjies.
Skapie met sy witte wol,
Kindjie drink sy magie (pensie) vol.

Sleep, Baby, Sleep

Lullaby

(English)

Sleep, baby, sleep,
Outside there is a sheep.
Sheep with white feet,
Drinks then its milk's so sweet.
Sheep with its white wool
Baby drinks his belly full.
