Bok van Blerk Pa En Seun song lyrics

I stand here alone by your grave

And I wish so much you were still here

That we could just talk, and let go of our pride

And I could just be your father.

I wanted only the best for you

But those words were just never said

And here where you lie, my son, I do not know

The time was too little to start over (begin again)

Tell me what a father says to his son

In you I have found life

I love you, you are my child

You are my child

Tell me how a father becomes so alone

It feels as though you were my only son

The Lord lent you to me

Your words turn constantly in my head

There is so much a father would like to ask

But someday you must also be a dad, my child

And then you will understand everything

As a father who would give his life

With his tears that would push back the sea

But here where you lie, my son

I know the time was too little

And nothing makes sense any more

Tell me how a father talks to his son

In You

In you I found life

I love you, you’re my child

You’re my child.
