Brabant [English translation]

A hat on my head

My collar stands up

It's ice cold here

But thankfully dry

The days here are short

The night begins early

The people are stiff

And there is only one pub

When I walk to my hotel

After a dark day

Then I feel my house key

Deep in my pocket

I walk alone here

In a too quiet city

I have actually never been bothered

By homesickness

But the people they sleep

The world is closing

And then I think of Brabant

Because there the light is still on

Here I miss the warmth

Of the town cafe

The contact with people

With a soft G 1

I even miss the whining

About everything for nothing

If only they were of Brabant

So proud as a Frisian 2

In the south full of sun

I live together with you

It is because of this that I so

Love Brabanders 3

I walk alone here

In a too quiet city

I have actually never been bothered

By homesickness

But the people they sleep

The world is closing

And then I think of Brabant

Because there the light is still on

The Peel and the Kempen 4

And the Meierij 5

But the most beautiful of Brabant

Is you, that is you

I walk alone here

In a too quiet city

I have actually never been bothered

By homesickness

But the people they sleep

The world is closing

And then I think of Brabant

Because there the light is still on

I walk alone here

In a too quiet city

I have actually never been bothered

By homesickness

But the people they sleep

The world is closing

And then I think of Brabant

Because there the light is still on

And then I think of Brabant

Because there the light is still on

And then I think of Brabant

Because there the light is still on
