Afrikaans - family tree sacrifice for a beter future, all their efforts now forgotten.
Familie Boom


My familie, so veel jare al vergeet
Baie van hulle daar in die veld gestorwe
Mag ek nooit trots my familie naam dra
Behoue en blywend tot in lengte van dae


Hulle bloed het gevloei met die slag van bloedrivier
My voorgeslagte en nageslagte sal seier
Die moord van ons volk in konsentrasie kampe
Die Britte sal eendag betaal vir hul gru dade


Mag ek nooit vergeet, die opoffering van hul lewe
So dat ek na `n beter Suid Afrika kan strewe
My familie boom geskei deur heiden mag
Mag ons saam staan vir die laaste slag.
