Biesiebameliedjie (Composer: Franco Prinsloo)

A wonderful performance of my composition, "Biesiebameliedjie," sung by the stunning singers of Laerskool Elarduspark Senior Choir at the final concert of the ATKV-Applous national choral competition. I composed this original piece especially for this choir under the direction of Elize Eloff.
Congratulations to the singers, conductor, and accompanist, Betsie Schaap.
❤️ The wonderful text is by one of my favourite poets in Afrikaans, Philip de Vos. Thank you, Philip, for enriching the lives of countless readers and singers with your wonderful words.
If you are interested in performing this composition, do not hesitate to contact me at [e-mail] or just DM me! If you are interested in commissioning a new work for your choir, feel free to reach out.

I saw this video in my recommended, when I saw the title I first thought it was Dutch language(my native) because of the resemblance haha.

[@MrFrancoprinsloo]

It is sung in Afrikaans!

(A Free Rhymed Translation)
Sing to me your hush-rush lullaby,
A song before it’s time to sigh,
A song before it’s time to fly,
And with my silly little ditty,
I’ll drift away to dreams so pretty.
Yesterday, I found a little bird
That fell into the stream,
Now its songs have flowed away
Into my hush-rush dream.

​@MrFrancoprinsloo thank you for the translation

Ну почему когда поют они такие прелестные а на улице они оторвы?
