    This song, to me, is about that feeling of missing something, longing for something, but not being sure what it is that you're missing - being at the edge of tears, but not being sure why. 'Die Raaisel van die Reen' translates to 'The Riddle of the Rain', and I've tried to capture all the emotions that come with rainfall, and with nostalgia.
    Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think! I love hearing from all you amazing people.

    Dankie vir luister! Ek waardeer dit baie, en hoop julle het my musiek geniet!
    Thank you for listening, and God bless!
    Transcript:
    Dit reën hier in die lande, en ek voel my hart is vol
    My gedagtes, soos die wiele van die karre, hou aan rol
    Al die vreemde paaie, gaan hulle almal iewers heen?
    Of vloei hul soos riviere, met die rigting van die reën?
    Of vloei hul soos riviere, met die rigting van die reën?
    En die waters van die reën sal gaan net waar dit wil
    Met verlange vir 'n lied wat ek nie ken
    Soek vir lang vergete woorde, hoor 'n melodie so stil
    In 'n raaiseltjie wat net die reën kan wen
    Sien die volheid van die leegheid in die stories van die wind
    En die antwoord vir 'n vraag is net nog 'n vraag te vind
    Dan soek ek vir die warmte in Skaduwee se hand
    En onbekende deure reën al weer hier in die land
    En onbekende deure reën al weer hier in die land
    En die waters van die reën sal gaan net waar dit wil
    Met verlange vir 'n lied wat ek nie ken
    Soek vir lang vergete woorde, hoor 'n melodie so stil
    In 'n raaiseltjie wat net die reën kan wen
    (Instrumentaal)
    En die waters van die reën sal gaan net waar dit wil
    Met verlange vir 'n lied wat ek nie ken
    Soek vir lang vergete woorde, hoor 'n melodie so stil
    In 'n raaiseltjie wat net die reën kan wen

    Do you have the transcript? Can I assist for the sub/translation from dutch (I'm hoping RUclips can do it with the right language setup)... Like the listening but unsure of any meaning :)

      I've just put the Afrikaans transcript below the video description. 🙂

      ​​​​​@@EmmiByrdthanks for the Lyrics
      there was a way prior (I'm talking a year ago on John Buchanan's video I think) to for me to add subtitles to some video, do you know if there is a lock on your video (I don't know well RUclips creator side but I could surely find it). Have you thought of arranging a playlist? I am really impressed by your songs. Say hi to all your family (especially your mum) from us

      No problem!
      I'm not really sure what you mean by subtitles... I think there is an 'add subtitles' option in RUclips studio, but I'm not sure.
      Mum says hi back!
      Thank you so much, I really appreciate it, and I'm so glad that people are enjoying my music. 😊

      ​@@EmmiByrd can you tag me to reply, I think I would then be notified: there is a way for RUclips to display the lyrics with the music, as Subtitles, meaning they appear while you would sing (not karaoke style as this is more time consuming). I think there is an option of having a "translation" from the generated AI...
      Are you able to allow someone to "Add subtitle"? Maybe you could "share the video"?
      Forget any other way, the option (subtitle from community) I was hoping to use was canned, in 2020 (I did that a while back then...)
      I looked into your videos, "Second Chance" has english subtitle automatically generated, maybe you need to allow subtitles, and advise the language. Translation from your transcript is very instructive: I really like the flow of the lyrics. Great meaning too :)

      I've responded to your comment on my other video, concerning the subtitles, and I'm still looking into how I can make that work.
      Thank you! I really appreciate all your support.
      I'm currently editing my next video, which I'm planning to put up on my channel on Thursday or Friday, so anything else might take a while.
      Thanks again, and I hope you have an amazing week in the lead-up to Easter!
      Edit: I've just added subtitles to this video, which took a while but eventually worked. I'm not sure if it'll translate my lyrics into any other languages, but either way the Afrikaans subtitles for this video are now available.
