Deur Die Straights
Hugo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Teen die berg, dis erg, Graaf-Reinet lê nog ver
Ek wil huis toe gaan
Die Num-Num en Kambro van die Klein Karoo
Beaufort-Wes dink ek net, dink ek net aan jou
Ek wil huis toe gaan
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
Bloemfontein, Petrus Steyn, die gat by Kimberley
Ek kan nie, ek kan nie, ek kan nie uithou nie
Ek wil huis toe gaan
Kuruman, Hotazel, ek dink ek moet jou bel
Amper daar, amper klaar, gaan jou nou-nou sien
Ek wil huis toe gaan
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
Op Knysna draai ek af na Outeniquapas
Teen die berg, dis erg, Graaf-Reinet lê nog ver
Ek wil huis toe gaan
Die Num-Num en Kambro van die Klein Karoo
Beaufort-Wes dink ek net, dink ek net aan jou
Ek wil huis toe gaan
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou
In "Deur Die Straights", Hugo sings about the journey on which he is embarking. He mentions various South African towns and landmarks, including Outeniquapas, Graaf-Reinet, Klein Karoo, Beaufort-Wes, Bloemfontein, Petrus Steyn, Kimberley, Kuruman, and Hotazel. Despite the distance and various stops, Hugo knows exactly where he is going and what he wants. He wants to go home. The lyrics demonstrate the power of nostalgia and the longing for familiar places.
The repetition of "Deur die straights en om die draaie na jou" serves as a chorus, augmenting the emotional weight of the lyrics. The chorus can be interpreted as a metaphor for the twists and turns on the road, as well as the twists and turns of life, that lead one back to where they belong. The song is a powerful ode to South Africa, its landscapes, and its people, and the desire for home and belonging.

Ek en my familie is mal oor hierdie liedjie. Maar daar is een ding wat ons almal al vir baie lank probeer uitwerk. En dit waar is “huis” waarvan hy praat. Ons het aangeneem dis sy beter helfde maar waar is dit waar sy dan bly.

@biancaburger4327
Halo ! Maak gereed vir n vreemde vraag ! Ekt op n memory op FB afgekom van lirieke van n song van seker 10 jaar terug
"Ek droom en ek wonder hoekom ek in my voel, soos n kunstenaar soos n kluisenaar, met sy kitaar. En ek droom van die langpad verby Napier. En ek hoop dit vat my terug tot hier. En ek droom van jou"
Is dit jou song ? As dit is, wat is die naam en waar kry ek dit ? Want dit maak my al mal dat ek dit nerens kan kry nie en eks nie eens meer seker wie dit regtig gesing het nie.
Ek sal dit so baie waardeer,
Dankie
Bianca
