WUPPERTHAL

2023 /Translation by Santie Gouws

Wupperthal, Cederberg, South Africa

From the highest krantz at Woeperdal

The eagle let a feather fall

More and more my heart pouts out 

To you the feather I doth send

The message I would like to bring

My love for you makes my heart to sing.

Footnote:

This is Santie's own English translation of the original Afrikaans poem 'Berggans', by Afrikaans poet, Boerneef.
