[Verse 1]

De zon komt op, een nieuwe dag

The sun rises, a new day

Ik voel de kracht, mijn eigen lach

I feel the strength, my own smile

Geen twijfel meer, geen angst of spijt

No more doubt, no fear or regret

Mijn droom is dichtbij, ik ben bereid

My dream is close, I am ready

[Chorus]

Mijn liefste, jij bent sterk en vrij

My dearest, you are strong and free

Laat je leiden, altijd jij

Let yourself be guided, always you

Elke stap, een nieuwe kans

Every step, a new chance

Dans je eigen, wilde dans

Dance your own, wild dance

[Verse 2]

De weg is lang, soms wat zwaar

The road is long, sometimes a bit hard

Maar ik geef niet op, nee nooit, ik sta klaar

But I don't give up, no never, I am ready

Met elke adem, elke beat

With every breath, every beat

Weet ik, mijn liefste, wat je lied gebiedt

I know, my dearest, what your song commands

[Chorus]

Mijn liefste, jij bent sterk en vrij

My dearest, you are strong and free

Laat je leiden, altijd jij

Let yourself be guided, always you

Elke stap, een nieuwe kans

Every step, a new chance

Dans je eigen, wilde dans

Dance your own, wild dance

[Bridge]

Ik kijk naar voren, zie het licht

I look forward, see the light

Mijn doel is helder, mijn gezicht

My goal is clear, my face

Straalt van hoop, van pure zin

Radiates hope, pure meaning

Ik ben de winnaar, begin!

I am the winner, begin!

[Chorus]

Mijn liefste, jij bent sterk en vrij

My dearest, you are strong and free

Laat je leiden, altijd jij

Let yourself be guided, always you

Elke stap, een nieuwe kans

Every step, a new chance

Dans je eigen, wilde dans

Dance your own, wild dance
