Engelbewaarder Lyrics in English Marco Schuitmaker

Buckle up and hit the Dutch highway! In “Engelbewaarder,” Marco Schuitmaker invites us on a late-night car ride where freedom, speed, and a touch of day-dreaming mix together under flashing lights. He paints vivid scenes of endless lane stripes, whirring engines, and that carefree feeling of singing along in the car… until a little voice of caution crows in your head like a rooster at dawn.

That warning voice turns out to be a guardian angel—the invisible protector who keeps you safe when fatigue creeps in and your eyelids grow heavy. After a near-miss, the angel takes on the familiar face of the driver’s own mother, reminding him to drive carefully from now on. The chorus repeats the revelation that guardian angels are real, always watching, and sometimes even saving our lives. The song is a feel-good folk-pop anthem that blends gratitude, wonder, and a gentle safety message, leaving listeners humming along while secretly checking their speedometer.
