(Good evening the train they call the country of Waas)
It is better not to expect it
at Willebroek.
You can languish it
at Puurs and Bornem.
Temse! there it is, here you are.
Then you can go to all sides:
Beveren-Waas, Moerbeke-Waas,
Lokeren, Hamme, Waasmunster,
this country has its Munster,
Sint-Gillis-Waas, Sint-Niklaas.
When in autumn apples
fall from the trees,
all in vain,
ready to pick up.
They are ripe
when comes the Saint.
Bicycling in the smog,
we scan a country of Waas.
