er liepen vogels
op voorzichtige voetjes
door het mulle zand		 there were birds walking
on tentative little legs
through the loose dune sand

Sporen in het zand.
Er reed een auto, er liep
een mens de zee in?		 Traces in the sand.
A car drove by, a person
walked into the sea?

het zoute water
vreet zich een weg door het zand
laat schelpjes achter		 salty sea water
eats its way through the sand, leaves
little shells behind

Wolkjes in de lucht.
Wolkjes in het zand en wij,
mensen, daartussen.		 Small clouds in the sky.
Small clouds in the sand and we,
men, in the middle.

Het strand sluipt binnen
korreltje voor korreltje
bestijgt het de trap		 Beach is sneakin’ in
inch by inch, grain after grain
it ascends the stairs

Het water nog ver
roerloos wacht het zandkasteel
op wat komen gaat		 Sea in the distance
the sand castle waits for the
inevitable
