Geanker in my spore van gisters vantevore


Trane kom gietende,
soos dou uit die hemel,
soos reënval op droë grond,
soos water vir 'n dorstige siel,
soos strome in 'n woestyn.
Hul vloei,
gee lig in die donker,
soos sterre in die lug,
soos sonskyn in 'n nuwe dag,
maak elke hart mooi,
soos reënboë in die lug.
Laat hulle tuimel,
eindeloos vloei van ons wange af,
soos riviere wat nooit droogloop nie,
streel, verlig, vertel,
trane uit elke gebroke hart
vorm 'n legkaart
wat kan heelmaak
