Da Vat Hy
Jay Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ons vat hom by die horings
Maak hom mooi, maak hom sag, maak hom mak, maak hom joune
Da vat hy
My bokkie, da vat hy
Vleisie op die kole
'n Broodjie in die oond
Da vat hy
My bokkie, da vat hy
Niks fout met 'n 3 liter Ford
2 liter coke
Een brandewyn-lyfie met haar rokkie kort
Dis besigheid voor
En partytjie van agter
Gooi hom in die son, dat hy 'revvs' optel
Da vat hy, da vat hy
Want 'n warm patat, laat die skote klap
Da vat hy, da vat hy
Ons druk die speakers tot dit bewe
Want dis mos hoe ons lewe
Da vat hy
Ooh, my bokkie, da vat hy
Donkiejare laas
Het die speakers so geraas
Ons het gedans, het gelag, het geparty dat dit bars
Da vat hy
Mmm, my bokkie, da vat hy
Met jou hier langs my sy
Wou ek niemand anders vry
Ons het gejol, gebaklei, het 'n cabriolet gery
Da vat hy
Ooh, my bokkie, da vat hy
Niks fout met 'n 3 liter Ford
2 liter coke
Een brandewyn-lyfie met haar rokkie kort
Dis besigheid voor
En partytjie van agter
Gooi hom in die son, dat hy 'revvs' optel
Da vat hy, da vat hy
Want 'n warm patat, laat die skote klap
Da vat hy, da vat hy
Ons druk die speakers tot dit bewe
Want dis mos hoe ons lewe
Da vat hy
Ooh, my bokkie, da vat hy
Los jou houding by die huis
En ek kry jou op die dansvloer (Ooh da vat hy, ooh ooh da vat hy)
Ek het lewe in my lyf, en ek dans dan net vir jou (Ooh da vat hy, ooh ooh da vat hy)
Gooi hom in die son, dat hy 'revvs' optel
Da vat hy, da vat hy
Want 'n warm patat, laat die skote klap
Da vat hy, da vat hy
Ons druk die speakers tot dit bewe
Want dis mos hoe ons lewe
Da vat hy
Ooh, my bokkie, da vat hy
Ooh, my bokkie, da vat hy
Ooh, my bokkie, da vat hy
The Afrikaans song "Da Vat Hy" by Jay & Lianie May is all about embracing the good times and partying with loved ones. The opening lines, "Arm maar gelukkig, Ons vat hom by die horings" which translates to "Poor but happy, we take it by the horns" sets the tone for the song. The lyrics highlight how material possessions may not always bring happiness, but rather the company of friends and loved ones can make moments priceless.
The verses center around typical South African entertainment with a braai (barbeque), a good drink, and loud music. The chorus, "Da vat hy, My bokkie, da vat hy," which roughly translates to "There he goes, my sweetheart, there he goes," is an expression of excitement and encouragement to let loose and have a good time. The lines "Gooi hom in die son, dat hy 'revvs' optel" translates to "Throw it into the sun so that he can pick up the revs," which refers to revving up a car, creating a party atmosphere. The verses also touch on romantic themes, with the couple reminiscing about good times spent together and wanting no one else but each other.
