Mocht ik onder het hakken bezwijken
Mocht ik onder het feesten vergaan
Laat dan op mijn grafsteen schrijven
Ik was te strak om op te staan..­

Line by Line Meaning

Mocht ik onder het hakken bezwijken
If I were to succumb to the energetic dance moves of the Hakken, a fast-paced dance style, and fall down


Mocht ik onder het feesten vergaan
If I were to die while enjoying the party and its revelries


Laat dan op mijn grafsteen schrijven
Inscribe on my tombstone


Ik was te strak om op te staan
I was too intoxicated or high to stand up or function properly
