Wiegeliedje


Met liedjes zing je de oorlog niet overHoe hard je ook zingt, e overstemt de oorlog niet
Hoe groot het verzet, het blijft een verzetje
De wereld wakker zingen met een wiegelied

Geef de oorlogskinderen een naam
Zodat ze dichter bij je zijn
Noem ze Remco of Charlotte
Jasperina, Boudewijn
Geef de thuislozen hun huis terug
En de slaaplozen hun slaap
Noem ze Marco, Jann, Mathilde
Edith, Hella, Jaap

De oorlog zal nooit mijn liedje verstommen
Hoe luid het gebulder, hoe zacht mijn gezang
Hoe groot het geweld, hoe klein mijn wiegeliedje
Ik blijf wel wakker, wees maar niet bang

Geef de oorlogskinderen een naam
Zodat ze dichter bij je zijn
Noem ze Nonnie, Nous'che, Constantijn
Geef de goddelozen hun geloof terug
Wees een ouder voor de wees
Noem ze Erik, Nard, Suzanne
Thomas, Judith, Kees

Geef de oorlogskinderen een naam
Dan kun je dichter bij ze zijn
Noem ze Jelle, York of Anne
Rosalein of Valentijn
Geef de ontaarden weer hun wortels
gun de stervenden een bed
Noem ze Letja, Merlijn of Roger
Hubert, Robert Jan, Babette
