Summary
editDescriptionHendrik Green Fruit Seller - Koeberg Road, Cape Town.webm |
English: Hendrik is a roadside fruit seller with a wonderful sales talk.
This tries to capture something of the flavour of it, but he's slowed down for the camera - the full flight version in the middle of the traffic was more energetic, but we would have both been in serious trouble if we'd held up the M5! A rough translation (which appears in the subtitles) My naam is Hendrik Green/ My name is Hendrik Green Ek is van De Aar/ I’m from De Aar Ek kry baaie swaar/ Life is heavy Ek verkoop druiwe, / I sell grapes uiwe tamaties/ As well as tomatoes Pariahs patajas/ Potatoes Avo’s parevos/ Avos (Avocado pears) Mangoes patangoes/ Mangos Druiwe so sweet even talk in your sleep/ Grapes so sweet even talk in your sleep Hy’s gedoop in die stroop/ He’s baptised/ dunked in the syrup My larnie/ (Larnie – term for an upmarket person) Kyk maar moei van self/ Look carefully yourself Wees doodstil/ Be dead quiet Ek is soet (vir?) druiwe/ I’m sweet for grapes Dis net een byt laat die heuning spuit uit al die gaaties/ Just one bite lets the honey squirt out of all the holes … so cheap/ Even so sweet/ Ook in jou sleep/ Even in your sleep Cheaper than Pick ‘n Pay/ (a large supermarket chain) Fresher than I&J/ (a frozen food company)
