Die Hysbak Song
Hugo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

In die dag is ek ‘n valk
In die nag is jy ‘n wolf
Dis net die lig wat ons twee skei
Na werk gaan ons saam in die hysbak ry

Jy’t jou eie kantoor
En ek het myne
Maar tussen jou en my

Lê ‘n duisend koesyne

Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Wens ek hierdie hysbak breek
Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Wens ek hierdie hysbak breek

In die dag is ek ‘n valk
In die nag is jy ‘n wolf
Dis net die lig wat ons twee skei
Na werk gaan ons saam in die hysbak ry

Ek wonder of jy
Ook so voel oor my?
Lê jy ook in die nag
En dink aan my?

Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Wens ek hierdie hysbak breek
Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Wens ek hierdie hysbak breek

Soos die leeu en die lam
Nooit by mekaar gaan lê
Sal ek en jy
Gaan oor iets kan sê?

Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Wens ek hierdie hysbak breek

Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer (Derde vloer)

Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Wens ek hierdie hysbak breek

Tussen die tweede en die derde vloer
Wens ek hierdie hysbak breek

Overall Meaning

The song "Die Hysbak Song" by Hugo speaks about two people who work in the same building and ride the elevator together every day after work. During the day, the singer describes himself as a "valk" (hawk) and the other person as a "wolf," who only are separated by the light that divides them as they work in their own separate offices. However, when they ride the elevator together, they are seemingly brought together. The singer wonders if the other person also shares his feelings towards them. The song has a melancholic tone, with the singer wishing that the elevator would break while they are between the second and third floor, which could create a possibility to express the feelings between them.

The song's lyrics symbolize how people can be very different on the surface, but underneath there is a desire that both parties share for more than just a superficial connection. The elevator ride represents an opportunity for them to share genuine moments, which is not possible in their work environment due to their positions and roles. The singer wants to explore whether there is a chance for them to be more than just work colleagues.

Line by Line Meaning

In die dag is ek ‘n valk
During the day, I feel powerful and in control like a hawk

In die nag is jy ‘n wolf
But at night, you become aggressive and cunning, like a wolf

Dis net die lig wat ons twee skei
The only thing that separates us is the light of day

Na werk gaan ons saam in die hysbak ry
After work, we ride in the elevator together

Jy’t jou eie kantoor
You have your own office

En ek het myne
And I have mine

Maar tussen jou en my
But there are a thousand obstacles between us

Lê ‘n duisend koesyne
That we must navigate through

Ek wonder of jy
I wonder if you

Ook so voel oor my?
Feel the same about me?

Lê jy ook in die nag
Do you also lie awake at night
