Wanneer'n
mens 'n berg van beskou
Dan
is hy lelik; al sy foute staar
Jou
naaktelik in die oë, hy is baar
En
plantloos, ru en klipperig en grou.
En
ook -jou denkbeeld is geheel ontrou,
Want
jy verlies die grote in die klein;
Jy
sien 'n stukkie, die geheel verdwyn;
En
op'n deel wil jy die hele bou.
So
is die mens: beskou hom van te na
En
al sy foute steek jou in die oog.
Maar
soos die berg daar in die verte skyn,
Jy
sien die grootste oor die klein verhoog:
So
sal die mens'n ander kenmerk dra
In
lig deur ruime perspektief verfyn.
Beautiful end! Love from your Grandfather
