,In hierdie boekie herhaal ek dieselfde idees dikwels, maar altyd in ’n bietjie ’n
ander manier. (In this booklet I repeat the same ideas many times, but
always in a slightly different way.)
Jy sien dieselfde betekenis in kort Engelse sinne, in kort Afrikaanse sinne, en in
vrae of tabelletjies. (You see the same meaning in short English
sentences, in short Afrikaans sentences, and in questions or little
tables.)
Elke keer as jy ’n idee weer lees, help jou brein om dit beter te onthou. (Every
time you read an idea again, your brain remembers it better.)
Omdat jy Engels praat, herhaal ek die Afrikaanse woorde en sinstrukture saam
met Engelse vertalings, sodat jy stadig gewoond raak aan die Afrikaans, sonder
te veel druk. (Because you speak English, I repeat the Afrikaans words
and sentence patterns with English translations, so you slowly get used
to Afrikaans without too much pressure.)
These notes are full of gentle repeats so your brain can remember the
important ideas, not just in one place, but many times, in small steps.

, Halala Afrika - Johannes Kerkorrel
Line-by-line
Dear Student, here I have done the four stanzas, Afrikaans first, then in
brackets English.
1. Toe die wêreld hier nog jonk was en die horison wyd en oop.
(When the world here was still young and the horizon wide and open.)
2. Was dit groen hier in die halfrond, suid van die ewenaar.
(It was green here in the hemisphere, south of the equator.)
3. En in die skemer as die son sak en die beeste huis toe loop.
(And in the twilight when the sun sets and the cattle run home.)
4. Klink die roepstem van die vroue oor die heuwels van die land:
(Sounds the call of the women over the hills of the land:)
5. Halala, ewig is ons Afrika.
(Rejoice, eternal is our Africa.)
6. Tula tula mtanami, tula tula sanaboni, tula tula mtanami,
(Tula tula mtanami, tula tula sanaboni, tula tula mtanami,)
7. Ubab uzobuya sihlale naye, ubab uzobuya sihlale sonke, Hmmm-Hmmm
(Ubab uzobuya so we may live with him, Ubab uzobuya we may live all of
us, Hmmm-Hmmm)
8. Toe kom die skepe uit die weste, wit seile oor die see
(Then came the ships from the west, white sails over the sea)
9. Om te vra vir kos en water en te bly vir so veel meer.
(To ask for food and water and to stay for so much more.)
10.En die land wat een tyd oop was, die land het ons verruil
(And the land that once was open, the land we exchanged)
11.Vir die ghetto’s van die stede is ons koperdraad gegee.
(For the ghettos of the cities our copper wire is given.)
12.Daar was rykdom in die maag van ons moeder Afrika
(There was wealth in the womb of our mother Africa)
13.Diamante en ook steenkool, goud, edel metaal
(Diamonds and also coal, gold, precious metal)
14.En die mense word die slawe hier want die mense word betaal
(And the people become the slaves here because the people are paid)
15.Om te tonnel in die aarde elke greintjie uit te haal
(To tunnel in the earth each grain to extract)
