Jane
Beeskraal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Meisie met die blonde hare, waar is jy na al die jare?
Ek onthou dit nog soos gister, haar naam is Jane

Want sy speel, speel, speel rondomtalie met my
Al wat ek kon doen was om net stil te bly
Sy't gesê daar's iemand anders, ek kon dit nie verstaan
Daar is baie ander girls Jane as jy my nie verstaan

Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Meisie met die blonde hare, waar is jy na al die jare?
Ek onthou dit nog soos gister, haar naam is Jane

Sy't haar tasse gepak, ek wou haar nie laat gaan
Sy't gesê daar's iemand anders, ek kon dit nie verstaan
Die pad roet na my ma hulle was wyd en groot
Die roooibos blomme is seker lank al dood

Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Meisie met die blonde hare, waar is jy na al die jare?
Ek onthou dit nog soos gister, haar naam is Jane

Die laaste keer toe ek haar sien stoksiel alleen op Kerkplein
Toe dog ek vir myself miskien wag sy vir Paul Kruger op daai plein
Kerkplein Jane
Kerkplein Jane

Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Meisie met die blonde hare, waar is jy na al die jare?
Ek onthou dit nog soos gister
Ek onthou dit nog soos gister

Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Haar naam is Jane, ek onthou dit, haar naam is Jane
Meisie met die blonde hare, waar is jy na al die jare?
Ek onthou dit nog soos gister, haar naam is Jane




Ek onthou dit nog soos gister, haar naam is Jane
Ek onthou dit nog soos gister, haar naam is Jane

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Beeskraal's song "Jane" tell the story of a girl named Jane who has left the singer's life. The repetition of her name emphasizes the singer's strong memory of her. He vividly recalls her as a girl with blonde hair and wonders where she has gone after all these years. The singer admits that he played around with Jane, but all he could do was stay quiet. She mentioned someone else, and he couldn't understand it. He tries to explain that there are many other girls, but none like Jane.


The second verse reveals that Jane packed her bags, and the singer didn't want to let her go. He still couldn't understand why she mentioned someone else. The path led to his mother, and it was wide and vast. The red bush flowers are probably long dead, symbolizing the passage of time and perhaps lost opportunities.


In the bridge, the singer sees Jane for the last time, looking lonely on Kerkplein (a square or church square). He ponders if she might be waiting for Paul Kruger, a prominent historical figure, on that square. However, the repetition of Jane's name and the final chorus reinforce that the singer remembers her name like it was yesterday. He still wonders where she has gone after all these years.
