Wanneer ik naar Herman kijk en luister, ben ik trots om (nog steeds) nederlandse te zijn. Omdat ik in 1983 uit NL vertrok, heb ik Herman's carrière niet gevolgd maar onlangs was ik zeer verrast dat zijn stem nóg beter is dan vroeger. youtube tells all. Bijna altijd wordt 'het mooie' van de stem van zangers/zangeressen t.z.t. aangetast (denk maar aan Barbra Streisand), maar niet die van Herman. Ik wist niet dat hij ook viool speelde, enz. 5 ***** voor zijn creativiteit en liefde voor het vak.

@AndySachsPriestly The translation was ready a couple of days ago and I sent a message to the person who posted the clip, asking if the English lyrics could be posted with his comment, but there's no response, so here goes! Now that I have really focused on the words, I am rather disappointed that this was meant to be a Christmas messge! It is a protest song and it s•o•u•n•d•s beautiful, b•e•c•a•u•s•e Herman sings it.

@AndySachsPriestly Are you still interested in the lyrics? I am Dutch but I've lived abroad and spoken English for many years and I'd be happy to translate, but only if you still care :~).

@AndySachsPriestly I will do it with pleasure, but am busy the next few days. Before the weekend, I hope!

@AndySachsPriestly part 3. The sea, full of oil and mercury, rockets around the globe, to sleep with greater ease, and Africa suffers. Ah, we are more blind than a mole, the shepherds and the sheep. What should I ask God or angel when I see how beautiful spring is, hear, how children sing? God, do listen to us and make us open our eyes.

@AndySachsPriestly part 2. Minister, reverend and priest, over the years they have buried us with their advice. They shouted in our donkey’s ear: What good are shepherds for who howl with the wolves? What should I ask God or angel when I see how beautiful spring is, hear, how children sing? It’s always the same song: their words do not match their actions and inside their wise heads, their memories are like a sieve, so that they never remember what they once promised.

@NovaScotiaChick The lyrics, albeit true, are depressing. The literal translation that I give you, plus the lack of rhyme does not compliment the song. Bear that in mind. Dutch metaphors can be hard to translate into English. Dutch lyrics: discoveen.nl / vamanno.htm (ignore spaces) Does anyone know if there’s anyone alive who still leads us by example with the path he walks? Now that everyone trembles with envy, and everything of value is destroyed and wasted.
