Hier Is Ons Nou
Wynand Strydom Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Daar is rotse wat blink onder die maan
Jou oë die volg my tot skadus weer lig kry
En my hart soos 'n golf binne my begin pols
Om die groote oseaan te roer
Hier is ons nou
Maak wat jy wou
Die oomblik is nou more kom gou
Deel met my die somer wat ons voel
Droom met my op die laat nag strand
Waar die vuur se vlamme voor ons dans
Jy sit hier langs my en ek moet bely
Daar is geen ander mens wat voldoen aan my wens
Jy's al waarvoor ek ooit kon vra
Hier is ons nou
Maak wat jy wou
Terwyl die branders om ons spoel
Die oomblik is nou more kom gou
Deel met my die somer wat ons voel
Hier is ons nou
Maak wat jy wou
Terwyl die branders om ons spoel
Die oomblik is nou maak wat jy wou
Deel met my die somer wat ons voel

The dusk hangs over the Cape's coast
It's evening and the sun is setting over the coastline of Cape Town
There are rocks that shine under the moon
As the moon rises, it illuminates the rocks with its light
Your eyes follow me until shadows get light again
When it's dark, you keep your eyes fixed on me and follow me until it's light again
And my heart starts beating like a wave inside me
Being here with you makes my heart race, like waves cresting and breaking inside me
To disturb the great ocean
This feeling inside me is powerful enough to disturb even the vast ocean
Here we are now
We are here in this moment, together
Do what you wanted
Make the most of this moment and do whatever makes you happy
While the waves wash around us
As we stand here, the sea is crashing around us
The moment is now, come quickly
Don't waste any time- tomorrow may never come
Share with me the summer that we feel
Let's enjoy this beautiful summer feeling together
Dream with me on the late night beach
Let's escape reality and get lost in the dreamlike ambiance of the beach at night
Where the flames of the fire dance before us
As the flames of the bonfire sway, we are hypnotized by their beauty
You sit here next to me and I must confess
Being here with you makes me feel like I can share my deepest emotions with you
There is no other person that satisfies my desires
You are the only person who fully satisfies my heart's desires
You are all I could ever ask for
You are everything I've ever wanted and needed, and more
Here we are now
Once again, we find ourselves in this moment, together
Do what you wanted
Make the most of this time and do whatever you want
While the waves wash around us
As we stand here, the sea continues to crash around us
The moment is now, do what you wanted
Seize this moment and do whatever makes you happy
Share with me the summer that we feel
Let's share this beautiful, fleeting summer feeling together
