The Hills of Ixopo Lyrics – Frank Roane
Singer: Frank Roane
Title: The Hills of Ixopo
There is a lovely road that runs from Ixopo into the hills
These hills are grass covered and rolling
And they are lovely beyond any singing of it
About you there is grass and bracken
And you may hear the forlorn crying of the titihoya bird
The grass of the veld is rich and matted
You cannot see the soil
The grass holds the rain and mist
They seep into the ground
Feeding the streams in ev’ry clove
The clove is cool, and green
And lovely beyond any singing of it
But sing now about the lower hills.
Where you stand the grass is rich and matted
But thе rich green hills break down
They fall to the vallеy below
And falling change
For they grow red and bare
They cannot hold the rain and mist
The streams run dry in the cloves
Too many cattle feed on the grass
It is not kept or guarded or cared for
It no longer keeps men, guards men, cares for men
The titihoya cries here no more
The great red hills stand desolate
And the earth has torn away like flesh
These are the valleys of old men and old women
Of mothers and children
The men are away
The young men and the girls are away
The soil cannot keep them any more

The Hills of Ixopo – Terjemahan / Translation
Ada jalan yang indah yang beroperasi dari Ixopo ke bukit
Bukit-bukit ini tertutup rumput dan bergulir
Dan mereka indah di luar nyanyian itu
Tentang Anda ada rumput dan bracken
Dan Anda mungkin mendengar fornorn menangis dari burung Titihoya
Rumput Veld kaya dan kusut
Anda tidak dapat melihat tanah
Rumput memegang hujan dan kabut
Mereka meresap ke tanah
Memberi makan aliran di Ev’ry cengkeh
Cengkeh itu keren, dan hijau
Dan indah di luar nyanyian itu
Tapi nyanyikan sekarang tentang bukit-bukit bawah.
Di mana Anda berdiri rumput kaya dan kusut
Tapi bukit hijau yang kaya mogok
Mereka jatuh ke vallyy di bawah ini
Dan jatuh perubahan
Karena mereka tumbuh merah dan telanjang
Mereka tidak bisa menahan hujan dan kabut
Aliran kering di cengkeh
Terlalu banyak pakan ternak di atas rumput
Itu tidak disimpan atau dijaga atau dirawat
Itu tidak lagi membuat pria, penjaga pria, peduli pada pria
Titihoya menangis di sini lagi
Bukit merah besar berdiri terpencil
Dan bumi telah membuang seperti daging
Ini adalah lembah-lembah pria tua dan wanita tua
Ibu dan anak-anak
Para lelaki itu pergi
Para pemuda dan gadis-gadis itu pergi
Tanah tidak bisa menahannya lagi
