Zoals ik onder de clip vermeld:
The lyrics of this song originate from a poem written by an unknown Far East prisoner or war. This desolate gem inspired me to compose accompanying music. The poet puts in words the thoughts my uncle Karel (1922-1944) might have had when he went through the ordeal of several Nazi prisons and concentration camps after he was arrested during his flight from Holland to England where he wanted to join the Allied forces to fight against the enemy. Shortly before he left he got engaged to his big love, Dodo. He stood firm during much of his incarceration but his last camp, Flossenbürg, proved fatal to him.
