Doepsie Dapsie Doedeldas
Maak al self haar skoentjies vas
Kan al self haar handjies was
Kan al self haar klere was
Pak dit self al in die kas
Translation
"Doepsie Dapsie Doedeldas” is the name of a child.
This is a playful name and not a common name one would find in Afrikaans.
Doepsie Dapsie Doedeldas
She can tie her own shoes
She can wash her own hands
She can wash her own clothes
She can put her own clothes away
