Prompt
We met at the mandjie dans, where the night began,
I told you a story 'bout Zena, but soon we made a plan.
Flip the phone, “Jy weet wat om te doen,”
We danced the night away, under the silver moon.
Jeanerien, my love, you've been my light,
Through Cullian farm days, and Pretoria nights.
From Fourways to Cape Town, and now here in the Netherlands,
With you by my side, life is truly grand.
On New Year's Eve, two thousand and nine,
A ring in a rose, you became mine.
Through Waldo's birth in September, and Jeandre’s in July,
We’ve built a family, with love that won’t die.
Jeanerien, my love, you've been my light,
Through Cullian farm days, and Pretoria nights.
From Forways to Cape Town, and now here in the land,
With you by my side, life is truly grand.
Remember the drive, when I stopped for a rose,
A symbol of love that forever grows.
St. Lucia's adventure, our hearts were in sync,
Moments like these, in love we think.
From South Africa to the Netherlands, we've found our place,
In every step, your love's my saving grace.
The highs and lows, the laughter and the tears,
With you, Jeanerien, I treasure our years.
Jeanerien, my love, you've been my light,
Through Cullian farm days, and Pretoria nights.
From Forways to Cape Town, and now here in the Netherlands,
With you by my side, life is truly grand.
So here's to us, our love, our life,
Jeanerien, my darling, my beautiful wife.
Together forever, through all that may come,
In you, my dear, I've found my home.
