Translations to Jo Black - Die weerlig slaan

English

We fight in the morning
Fight here in my heart
And we dance in front of the kingdom
To take on the world
Your eyes sing hallelujah
But your heart carries all the pain
Your life is a miracle
From which, many still must learn
You understand the war within me
The debth of my darkness
Against whom I fight

Because the lightning strikes
But you know my name
It's the fire of a man rising
Bring back the heroes
Be a bright light tonight
Because the lightning strikes
But you know my name
It's the fire of a man rising

Bring back the heroes
Be a bright light tonight

Do we stand for the love?
To replace our weapons
All my pride and doubt
I will go and hang on the cross
The wind is getting stronger
But you think you're in control
Even if if he tears through your masts
The storm will not stop you
You understand the war within me
The debth of my darkness
Against whom I fight

Because the lightning strikes
But you know my name
It's the fire of a man rising
Bring back the heroes
Be a bright light tonight
Because the lightning strikes
But you know my name
It's the fire of a man rising
Bring back the heroes
Be a bright light tonight

Because the lightning strikes
But you know my name
It's the fire of a man rising
Bring back the heroes
Be a bright light tonight
Because the lightning strikes
But you know my name
It's the fire of a man rising

Bring back the heroes
Be a bright light tonight


Afrikaans

Veg ons in die oggendson
Veg hier in my hart
En dans ons voor die Koninkryk
Om die wêreld aan te vat
Jou oë sing hallelujah
Maar jou hart dra al die seer
Jou lewe is 'n wonderwerk
Waarby baie nog moet leer
Jy verstaan die oorlog binne my
Die dieptes in my duisternis
Teen wie ek baklei

Want die weerlig slaan
Maar jy ken my naam
Dis die vuur van 'n man wat opstaan
Bring die helde terug
Wees 'n helder lig vanaand
Want die weerlig slaan
Maar jy ken my naam
Dis die vuur van 'n man wat opstaan

Bring die helde terug
Wees 'n helder lig vanaand

Staan ons vir die liefde
Om ons wapens te vervang
Al my trots en al my twyfel
Sal ek aan die kruis gaan hang
Die wind word al hoe sterker
Maar jy dink jy's in beheer
Al skeur hy deur jou seile
Sal die storm hom nie keer
Jy verstaan die oorlog binne my
Die dieptes in my duisternis
Teen wie ek baklei

Want die weerlig slaan
Maar jy ken my naam
Dis die vuur van 'n man wat opstaan
Bring die helde terug
Wees 'n helder lig vanaand
Want die weerlig slaan
Maar jy ken my naam
Dis die vuur van 'n man wat opstaan
Bring die helde terug
Wees 'n helder lig vanaand

Want die weerlig slaan
Maar jy ken my naam
Dis die vuur van 'n man wat opstaan
Bring die helde terug
Wees 'n helder lig vanaand
Want die weerlig slaan
Maar jy ken my naam
Dis die vuur van 'n man wat opstaan

Bring die helde terug
Wees 'n helder lig vanaand
