Die girls van Limpopo, die girls van die Bosch
Hulle like van party tot die son opkom
Die meisies van Welkom sal jou wys hoekom
Whoaaa (whoaaa) kyk vir jou (kyk vir jou)
Whoaaa (whoaaa) whooooaaaa
Elke vrydagaand in die Vrystaat kom almal bymekaar
Die mooistes in die wêreld jy sien hulle almal daar
Want elke girl in hierdie land is duidelik mooi vir my
Die meisies van Vryheid, die meisies van Potch
Die girls van Limpopo, die girls van die Bosch
Hulle like van 'n party tot die son opkom
Die meisies van Welkom sal jou wys hoekom
Die meisies van Vryheid, die meisies van Potch
Die girls van Limpopo, die girls van die Bosch
Hulle like van party tot die son opkom
Die meisies van Welkom sal jou wys hoekom
Whoaaa (whoaaa) kyk vir jou (kyk vir jou)
Whoaaa (whoaaa) whooooaaaa
Elke woensdagaand vat die maties hulle kêrels vir 'n dans
Dis deurdruk dagtoe meisies wat party van vroeg tot saans
En elke saterdag in die Wes-Transvaal is dit altyd ek en jy
Want elke girl in hierdie land is duidelik mooi vir my
Die meisies van Vryheid, die meisies van Potch
Die girls van Limpopo, die girls van die Bosch
Hulle like van party tot die sonopkom
Die meisies van Welkom sal jou wys hoekom
Die meisies van Vryheid, die meisie van Potch
Die girls van Limpopo, die girls van die Bosch
Hulle like van party tot die son opkom
Die meisies van Welkom sal jou wys hoekom
Whoaaa (whoaaa) kyk vir jou (kyk vir jou)
Whoaaa (whoaaa) whooooaaaa
Die meisies van Vryheid, die meisies van Potch
Die girls van Limpopo, die girls van die Bosch
Hulle like van party tot die son opkom
Die meisies van Welkom sal jou wys hoekom
Die meisies van Vryheid, die meisies van Potch
Die girls van Limpopo, die girls van die Bosch
Hulle like van party tot die son opkom
Die meisies van Welkom sal jou wys hoekom
Whoaaa (whoaaa) kyk vir jou (kyk vir jou)
Whoaaa (whoaaa) whooooaaaa
The lyrics of the song "Die Meisies" sung by Ray Dylan is essentially about girls from different regions of South Africa and how they like to party. The song mentions girls from Vryheid, Potchefstroom, Limpopo, and Welkom, and how they enjoy parties until the sun comes up. The song also mentions that every Friday night in the Free State, the most beautiful girls come together, and every Saturday in Limpopo is a highlight for the singer as every girl in the land is beautiful to him. The song just appreciates the beauty of girls from different parts of the country and how they enjoy partying.
The lyrics of the song can be seen as objectifying women, as it doesn't depict them beyond their physical attributes or their partying nature. It adds to the regressive attitude towards women and the notion that they are mere objects of attraction. However, the song can be interpreted as just celebrating the beauty and party culture of South African women without any harmful intention.
