VAT JOU GOED EN TREK

Vat jou goed en trek, Ferreira,
vat jou goed en trek.
Agter die bos is 'n klompie perde,
vat jou goed en trek!
Swaar dra, al aan die eenkant,
swaar dra, al aan die eenkant,
swaar dra, al aan die eenkant,
vat jou goed en trek!

Tradisionele volkswysie
verwerk deur G.G. Cillie.

Vat : take, pick up
jou goed : your goods, your belongings
trek : permanently move away
agter die bos : behind the stand of trees, bush
klompie : a small number, several
perde : horses ( perd/perde/perdjie)
swaar : heavy
dra : carry
al aan die eenkant : all on one side

The family name "Ferreira" is very common
among Afrikaners. One does not assume any
traceable Portuguese lineage if you meet some-
one with that name.
However, the Portuguese presence in the life of
South Africa from the first days of the Dutch at
the Cape is considerable. The Portuguese developed
a kind of harbour language in the east, containing
Malay, Portuguese and eventually Dutch words,
called "Maleis-Portugees." This language was used
so extensively on ships and at the Cape, that there
were people (like Hesseling) who said that Afrikaans
owed its origin to the influence of Maleis-Portugees.
Although Southern Africa was dominated first
by the Dutch and then by the English, it was flanked
for a long time by two Portuguese colonial possessions,
Mocambique and Angola. There is a large population
of Portuguese in South Africa, especially in the east.
South African soldiers were, in the apartheid years,
also involved in border wars against Angola, and there
was some subterranean involvement in the civil war in
Mocambique. The Portuguese presence in the psyche
of the Afrikaner at least, is therefore considerable.
