A lovely lady with an amazing voice. She had such a kind, warm personality. One of my favorite dutch entries. Amazing lyrics, melody and orchestration. Rest in peace, Heddy.

[@House..231Van]

Such a beautiful song from a lovely lady .
RIP dear Heddy

[@arvinroidoatienza7082]

RIP Heddy Lester!
Here are the lyrics with English translation.
*De mallemolen (The merry-go-round)*
In de mallemolen van het leven - In the merry-go-round of life
Draai je allemaal je eigen rondje mee - You all ride your own turn
De molen draait ook zonder jou - The whirligig turns also without you
Je paard blijft nooit lang leeg - Your horse is never empty for a long time
Dus kom, draai met die mallemolen mee - So come on, ride on the merry-go-round
Bij de mallemolen van het leven - At the merry-go-round of life
Staat iedereen te wachten in een rij - Everyone is waiting in a queue
Wachten tot je mee mag doen - Waiting till you can join in
Het duurt misschien wel even - It might take a while
Maar voor iedereen is er een paardje bij - But there's a horse for everyone
In de mallemolen van het leven - In the merry-go-round of life
Draai je allemaal je eigen rondje mee - You all ride your own turn
De molen draait ook zonder jou - The whirligig turns also without you
Je paard blijft nooit lang leeg - Your horse is never empty for a long time
Dus kom, draai met die mallemolen mee - So come on, ride on the merry-go-round
Eenmaal in de molen van het leven - Once you're in the whirligig of life
In 't begin ben je misschien een beetje bang - At first you might be a little scared
Dan zal iemand je vasthouden - Then someone will hold you
Totdat je het alleen kunt - Till you can do it on your own
Want de mallemolenangst duurt nooit te lang - Because the merry-go-round fear never lasts too long
In de mallemolen van het leven - In the merry-go-round of life
Draai je allemaal je eigen rondje mee - You all ride your own turn
De molen draait ook zonder jou - The whirligig runs also without you
Je paard blijft nooit lang leeg - Your horse is never free for a long time
Dus kom, draai met die mallemolen mee - So come on, all ride on the merry-go-round
En die mensenlevensmallemolen - And that merry-go-round of human lives
Gaat door tot je er draaierig van bent - Goes on till you're dizzy
Maar jij blijft je toch vasthouden - But you still hold tight
Al vind je het niet leuk meer - Although you don't like it anymore
Want naast de molen is te onbekend - Because what's next to the whirligig is too unknown
In de mallemolen van het leven - In the merry-go-round of life
Draai je allemaal je eigen rondje mee - You all ride your own turn
De molen draait ook zonder jou - The whirligig runs also without you
Je paard blijft nooit lang leeg - Your horse is never free for a long time
Dus kom, draai met die mallemolen mee - So come on, all ride on the merry-go-round
In de mallemolen van het leven - In the merry-go-round of life
Draai je allemaal je eigen rondje mee - You all ride your own turn
De molen draait ook zonder jou - The whirligig runs also without you
Je paard blijft nooit lang leeg - Your horse iѕ never free for a long time
Dus kom, draai met die mallemolen mee - So come on, all ride on the merry-go-round
Dus kom, draai met die mallemolen mee - So come on, all ride on the merry-go-round
Duѕ kom, draai met die mаllemolen mee - So come on, аll ride on the merry-go-round

[@cataclysmiceas]

If the BBC can make a sun move in 1977 and Rai can't in 2022, I say we have a problem.

[@arvinroidoatienza7082]

[@luiscondeblazquez8518]

This should be the winner of 1977. Beautiful melody, grand orchestration and meaningful. The juries over looked The Dutch entry in 1977.
