,Sonvanger
kyk of jy vir my die son kan vang
daar’s ‘n kamer in die huis waar ons die son kan hang
dis donker by die venster in die middle van die dag → ironies
onthou jy hoe helder die kamer kon lag → personifikasie
kyk of jy vir my die son kan bring
daar’s ‘n liedjie in die gange wat die son kan sing
dis stil in die hoeke hierdie koue seisoen → metafoor
kan jy sien wat die wind en die reën aan my doen
sonvanger
ek vra jou mooi
laat hom weer vir my kom skyn
sonvanger
laat my verstaan
hoe ‘n somer
sommer in die niet kan verdwyn
en laat hom skyn
kyk of jy vir my die son kan kry
daar’s ‘n huisie in my hart waar die son kan bly
kyk of jy vir my die son kan steel
daar’s ‘n plekkie in die tuin waar die son kan speel
sonvanger
ek vra jou mooi
laat hom weer vir my kom skyn
sonvanger
laat my verstaan
hoe ‘n somer
sommer in die niet kan verdwyn
en laat hom skyn
bring ‘n bietjie lig
vir die draaie op my pad → metafoor
en ‘n handjie vol strale
vir die donker in my hart
sonvanger…

Beklemtoon hoe die sonvanger altyd die son moet vang sodat die ma haar seun en
hul herinneringe saam sal onthou
, Sonvanger - English translation
see if you can catch the sun for me
there's a room in the house where we can hang the sun
it's dark outside the window in the middle of the day
do you remember how brightly the room could laugh
see if you can bring me the sun
there's a song in the corridors that the sun can sing
it's quiet in the corners this cold season
can you see what the wind and the rain do to me
sun catcher
i'm asking you nicely
let him shine for me again
sun catcher
let me understand
how a summer
can just disappear into thin air
and let him shine
see if you can get me the sun
there's a little house in my heart where the sun can stay
see if you can steal the sun for me
there's a place in the garden where the sun can play
sun catcher
i'm asking you nicely
let him shine for me again
sun catcher
let me understand
how a summer
can just disappear into thin air
and let him shine
bring some light
for the turns on my road
and a handful of rays
for the darkness in my heart
sun catcher…
