Bly By My
Willem Botha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wat sy weer alleen in haar bed moes lê
Nadat jy haar gelos het
En sy weet dat sy jou nie weer wil terug hê
Want hoe kon jy jou hande op haar neer lê
Nadat sy jou gered het
Sonder haar sal hy niks meer kan wees nie
Al wat sy vra
Vat oor by my Jesus
Vat ons oor net vir nou
U is al op wie ek kan vertrou
Dra my op Jou hande
Laat my sweef op Jou vlerke
Soms raak dit als te veel vir my
Vat oor by my Jesus
'n Man wat weer vanaand by die huis kom
En nog 'n keer vertel vir sy vrou net hoekom
Hy nie eers 'n brood kon koop nie
En toe hy sien hoe smile sy ses maande seuntjie
Val hy op sy kneë en verloor sy laaste bietjie
Hoop wat hy kon oor hê
Maar sy hou hom vas
Vee af sy trane
Sy belowe sy sal by hom staan
Al wat hy vra
Vat oor by my Jesus
Vat ons oor net vir nou
U is al op wie ek kan vertrou
Dra my op Jou hande
Laat my sweef op Jou vlerke
Soms raak dit als te veel vir my
Vat oor by my Jesus
Ek weet dit help nie net as ek
Met U praat as ek U nodig het
Maar vanaand val ek op my kneë
Vat oor by my Jesus
Vat ons oor net vir nou
U is al op wie ek kan vertrou
En dra my op Jou hande
Laat my sweef op Jou vlerke
Soms raak dit als te veel vir my
Vat oor by my Jesus
Vat oor by my Jesus

Dertig dae en dertig nagte
She spent thirty days and nights alone in her bed after you left her.
Wat sy weer alleen in haar bed moes lê
She had to lie alone in her bed once again.
Nadat jy haar gelos het
After you left her.
En sy weet dat sy jou nie weer wil terug hê
And she knows that she doesn't want you back again.
Want hoe kon jy jou hande op haar neer lê
Because how could you lay your hands on her?
Nadat sy jou gered het
After she saved you.
Van 'n man wat hy nie meer wou wees nie
From a man who didn't want to be that anymore.
Sonder haar sal hy niks meer kan wees nie
Without her, he will not be able to be anything anymore.
Al wat sy vra
All she asks is
Vat oor by my Jesus
Take over for me, Jesus.
Vat ons oor net vir nou
Take over just for now.
U is al op wie ek kan vertrou
You are the only one I can trust.
Dra my op Jou hande
Carry me in Your hands.
Laat my sweef op Jou vlerke
Let me soar on Your wings.
Soms raak dit als te veel vir my
Sometimes it all becomes too much for me.
Vat oor by my Jesus
Take over for me, Jesus.
'n Man wat weer vanaand by die huis kom
A man who comes back home tonight.
En nog 'n keer vertel vir sy vrou net hoekom
And tells his wife once again why.
Hy nie eers 'n brood kon koop nie
He couldn't even buy a loaf of bread.
En toe hy sien hoe smile sy ses maande seuntjie
And then he sees his six-month-old son smile.
Val hy op sy kneë en verloor sy laaste bietjie
He falls on his knees and loses his last bit of hope.
Hoop wat hy kon oor hê
The hope he had left.
Maar sy hou hom vas
But she holds on to him.
Vee af sy trane
She wipes away his tears.
Sy belowe sy sal by hom staan
She promises to stand by him.
Al wat hy vra
All he asks is
Vat oor by my Jesus
Take over for me, Jesus.
Vat ons oor net vir nou
Take over just for now.
U is al op wie ek kan vertrou
You are the only one I can trust.
Dra my op Jou hande
Carry me in Your hands.
Laat my sweef op Jou vlerke
Let me soar on Your wings.
Soms raak dit als te veel vir my
Sometimes it all becomes too much for me.
Vat oor by my Jesus
Take over for me, Jesus.
Ek weet dit help nie net as ek
I know it doesn't help just by me
Met U praat as ek U nodig het
Talking to You when I need You.
Maar vanaand val ek op my kneë
But tonight I fall on my knees.
Vat oor by my Jesus
Take over for me, Jesus.
Vat ons oor net vir nou
Take over just for now.
U is al op wie ek kan vertrou
You are the only one I can trust.
En dra my op Jou hande
And carry me in Your hands.
Laat my sweef op Jou vlerke
Let me soar on Your wings.
Soms raak dit als te veel vir my
Sometimes it all becomes too much for me.
Vat oor by my Jesus
Take over for me, Jesus.
Vat oor by my Jesus
Take over for me, Jesus.
