Dar's 'n lied en 'n glimlag vir jou
By Hospitaaltyd, onthou!

Daar's 'n lied vir moeder, vader, en dogter en seun
Dar's 'n lied en 'n glimlag vir jou
By Hospitaaltyd, onthou!
Aqui Portugal Mocambique!
Fala-vos o radio clube em Lourenco Marques
transmitindo em ondas curtas e medias
Check your time with the LM chime.
This is the medium wave service of Lourenco Marques Radio,
broadcasting on 327 metres 917 kilocycles, and also on
shortwave in the 25, 31, 41, 49, 60 and 90 metre bands.
Greeeeeeeetings....this is David Davies...
To those of you on board the ships of the seven seas
Fair winds, fine weather, and a good passage.
To those who guard the lighthouses of our sea-washed shores
May your night proceed peacefully, immune from fog.
To the police force, on never-ending duty
Our thoughts are with you, during your constant vigil.
To aircraft crews flying high in the skywaves over the five continents
May your flight be without incident and your landings happy ones.
To passengers and train crews travelling along the railroads
of this vast continent,
May your journey proceed smoothly, and safely.
To miners, working at their dangerous task in the bowels of the earth,
May safety be your watchword.
To those of you who man the fire brigades and ambulances,
May God protect you from the dangers and risks of your noble calling.
To motorists, travelling along the dark and lonely highways
Godspeed, and a safe return to your home and dear ones.
To mothers everywhere, who tend their little ones,
May you sleep peacefully, and awake refreshed.
To doctors and nurses in hospitals,
And all those who minister to the sick and weary,
May God bless you in your work of mercy.
And to the rest of you, wherever you may be
In sickness or in health,
May this message on the ether waves
convey our sincerest thoughts.
Goodnight, and may God bless you all.
(poof!) ..back to work
