Ik Zing Dit Lied Voor Jou Alleen Lyrics in English Jan Smit

Ik Zing Dit Lied Voor Jou Alleen is Jan Smit’s tender love letter to his grandmother, told through the eyes of a grandson who refuses to let distance—or even heaven—silence their bond. When Oma confides that she is embarking on her “allerlaatste reis” to a beautiful paradise, she requests one simple comfort: that her grandson keep singing their special song so she will never feel alone. With heartfelt imagery of white roses and nostalgic memories of late-night Scrabble and Yahtzee, the track turns everyday family moments into timeless treasures.

Despite its melancholy theme, the song glows with warmth and gratitude. Each chorus becomes both a lullaby to soothe his own grief and an anthem celebrating the unbreakable connection between generations. Jan Smit reminds us that music can bridge every gap—distance, loss, even death—by keeping love alive in melody and memory. Let this sentimental Dutch pop ballad inspire you to cherish your loved ones and to keep their stories singing in your heart.
