Wondering what non-Groningers think this song is about...

[akka-van-kebnekaise]

Tussen Hoorn en Helpman ziet hij zichzelf

In het raam van de oude intercity

Wat sneeuw op z'n lokken en hij denkt aan haar woorden.

"Ik reis in gedachten vaak met je mee"

[akka-van-kebnekaise]

As 't boeten störmt (When it's storming outside) - Marlene Bakker

'k Drief op de golfslag van gedacht'n.

't Is boeten roeg ik lig allain

Het gait overdag nog, moar dei nacht'n

En in de verte heur ik 'n train

En alles wat west is liekt al mooier

'k Was dien lichtje in de störm

Wat hadd'n we 't mooi toun in dei joar'n

Wie hadd'n nait veul, toch waren we riek

En als 't nou störmt pak ik mien stevels

Loop ik alleneg achter diek

Floating on the waves of my thoughts

It's rough outside and I'm alone

The days aren't so bad, but the nights

In the distance I hear a train

And everything that was seems better

I was your light in the storm

We had it good in those years

We didn't have much, but we were rich

And if it starts to storm I grab my boots

I walk alone behind the dyke

t Zel weer veujoar worden

Ede Staal · Song · 2017

t Zel weer veujoar worden

It will be spring again

It will be spring again

I can smell it in the air, the first ringdove flies over

The winter was long

And I was scared

It will never become spring again.

But it always turns out right

Zalstoe aaltied bie mie blieven

Ede Staal · Song · 2017

Zalstoe aaltied bie mie blieven (Will you always stay with me)

Translation under the cut

Will you always stay with me, stay with me, little girl

Nice and warm in my arms, in your arms, close your eyes

The sun is tired and went to sleep

Through the fog I see the moon

This night now belongs to us both

Will you always stay with me, stay with me, my little girl

 Too many times sober, too many times drunk

But life goes on

And water stays wet

Oehoe

(2x)

 Ah ah ah ah ah aha aha...

 Will I always stay with you, stay with you, little girl

Nice and warm in my arms, in my arms, close your eyes

The sun is tired and went to sleep

Through the fog I see the moon

This night now belongs to us both

 Too many times sober, too many times drunk

But life goes on

And water stays wet

 Will you always stay with me.

Will you always stay with me.

Will you always stay with me, little girl.
