Vandag is my verjaardag, ’n jaar is weer verby
Today is my birthday, another year has passed
En my foon bly net lui met die mooiste wense vir my
And my phone just keeps ringing with the most beautiful wishes for me
Elke woord en elke teksie, elke oproep en gebed
Every word and every text, every call and prayer
Het hierdie spesiale dag soveel mooier gemaak
Has made this special day so much more beautiful
(Koor) · Chorus
So ek sê dankie, baie dankie vir die liefde en die vriendskap vandag
So I say thank you, thank you very much for the love and friendship today
Julle boodskappe bring ’n traan en ’n baie groot glimlag
Your messages bring a tear and a very big smile
My hart is sommer vol, ek voel geseënd en so ryk
My heart is simply full, I feel blessed and so rich
Dankie dat julle almal vandag na my kyk
Thank you all for looking after me today
(Vers 2) · Verse 2
Van vriende lanklaas gesien tot die mense baie na aan my
From friends not seen in a long time to the people very close to me
Het elkeen van julle tyd gemaak om my siel te verbly
Each of you made time to gladden my soul
Die lewe loop soms vinnig, maar vandag staan dit eers stil
Life sometimes moves fast, but today it stands still for a moment
Met al die mooi woorde is dit presies wat ek wil
With all the beautiful words, this is exactly what I want
(Koor) · Chorus
So ek sê dankie, baie dankie vir die liefde en die vriendskap vandag
So I say thank you, thank you very much for the love and friendship today
Julle boodskappe bring ’n traan en ’n baie groot glimlag
Your messages bring a tear and a very big smile
My hart is sommer vol, ek voel geseënd en so ryk
My heart is simply full, I feel blessed and so rich
Dankie dat julle almal vandag na my kyk
Thank you all for looking after me today
(Brug) · Bridge
Groot waardering in my hart, ek wens ek kon elkeen druk
Great appreciation in my heart, I wish I could hug each one
Julle wense bring vir my soveel vrede en geluk
Your wishes bring me so much peace and happiness
(Koor) · Chorus
So ek sê dankie, baie dankie vir die liefde en die vriendskap vandag
So I say thank you, thank you very much for the love and friendship today
Julle boodskappe bring ’n traan en ’n baie groot glimlag
Your messages bring a tear and a very big smile
My hart is sommer vol, ek voel geseënd en so ryk
My heart is simply full, I feel blessed and so rich
Dankie dat julle almal vandag na my kyk
Thank you all for looking after me today
(Outro)
Ja, baie dankie...
Yes, thank you very much...
Vir elke boodskap en wens
For every message and wish
Ek is ’n baie geseënde mens!
I am a very blessed person!
