Ben jij een engel die lacht
Henk Bernard Lyrics

In het paradijs leef jij je leven nu
The person he loved has passed on and is now living in heaven.

Een enkele reis was het voor jou
The person he loved has passed away and is not coming back.

Je wou nog zoveel zien
The person he loved had so many things they still wanted to do.

Maar je wist al lang dat jouw tijd was gekomen
The person he loved knew their time was up and accepted it.

Je werd geroepen door het hemelse gezang
The person he loved was called to heaven by heavenly singing.

Alles wat overblijft zijn nu duizenden tranen
All that is left for him are thousands of tears due to the loss of his loved one.

Tranen door gemis, om jou mijn schat
He is crying because he misses his loved one so much.

Ik kan jou nooit meer vragen, hoeveel je van me houdt
He can never again ask his loved one how much they loved him/her.

Nu zijn alle dagen zonder jou, zo eenzaam en koud
Now that his loved one is gone, every day feels lonely and cold without them.

Ben jij een engel die lacht
He is wondering if his loved one is now an angel in heaven who is happy.

Zal jij over mij waken
He is hoping that his loved one will watch over him and keep him safe.

Tot diep in de nacht, geef jij mij licht
He is hoping that his loved one will bring light into his life even in the darkest hours.

Ik voel me zo alleen
He feels very lonely without his loved one.

Maar door al mijn tranen heen
Despite all his tears, there is still hope and a source of strength.

Geef jij mij weer kracht
His loved one is the source of strength that helps him through his pain and loneliness.

Mijn engel die lacht
He sees his loved one as an angel who is now happy in heaven.

Al die mooie tijden met jou gedeeld
He is grateful for all the wonderful times he shared with his loved one.

Dankbaar ben ik voor al die fijne jaren
He is thankful for all the happy years they spent together.

Jouw foto draag ik bij me, net als je gouden ring
He carries his loved one's photo with him wherever he goes, as well as their wedding ring.

En hoop met het lied dat je hoort wat ik nu voor je zing
He hopes that his loved one can hear the song he sings and feels his love for them.

Elke dag steek ik een kaarsje voor je aan
He lights a candle for his loved one every day in remembrance and honor of them.

Geef je foto dan een kus, voor het slapen gaan
Before he goes to bed, he kisses his loved one's photo as a way of saying goodnight.

Geef jij mij weer kracht, mijn engel die lacht
His loved one is his source of strength and he sees them as a happy angel in heaven.
