Frank Sinatra - Killing me softly Dutch translation lyrics

About this lyric:
Killing me Softly” was originally recorded by Lori Lieberman, and ““he” was Don MacLean, and ”his song” was “American Pie”.
Roberta Flack covered it in 1973, and that’s the version everyone remembers. It became a monster hit, and was EVERYWHERE!
Perry Como did cover the song as well.
If you go on Youtube and say, but here’s Frank Sinatra doing it, if you listen to the voice you will know that’s not Sinatra, and the comments bear that out. It was really Perry Como. Either someone couldn’t tell the difference between the two voices or mistakenly put Sinatra’s pic when he meant to put Como’s.
Either way, Sinatra never covered the song. But he did sing a song called ““Softly as I Kill You”. That causes a lot of confusion.
Dood me zachtjes met haar lied
Ik hoorde dat ze kon zingen Ik hoorde dat ze stijl had en dus kwam ik om haar te zien en een tijdje te luisteren. En daar was ze dit jonge meisje, een vreemde in mijn ogen. Bespeeld mijn pijn met haar vingers, Bezingt mijn leven met haar woorden, Dood me zachtjes met haar lied Dood me zachtjes met haar lied Mijn hele leven vertellend met haar woorden, Dood me zachtjes met haar lied Ik voelde me helemaal rood van de koorts, schaamde me voor de menigte, Ik voelde dat ze mijn brieven had gevonden en ze allemaal hardop voorlas. Ik bad dat ze het zou afmaken, maar ze ging gewoon door. Bespeeld mijn pijn met haar vingers, Bezingt mijn leven met haar woorden, Dood me zachtjes met haar lied Dood me zachtjes met haar lied Mijn hele leven vertellend met haar woorden, Dood me zachtjes met haar lied Ze zong alsof hij me kende in al mijn duistere wanhoop En toen keek ze dwars door me heen alsof ik er niet was. Maar ze kwam gewoon zingen, helder en krachtig zingen. Bespeeld mijn pijn met haar vingers, Bezingt mijn leven met haar woorden, Dood me zachtjes met haar lied Dood me zachtjes met haar lied Mijn hele leven vertellend met haar woorden, Dood me zachtjes met haar lied
Killing me softly
I heard she sang a good song, I heard she had a style and so I came to see her and listen for a while. And there she was this young girl, a stranger to my eyes. Strumming my pain with her fingers, Singing my life with her words, Killing me softly with her song, Killing me softly with her song, Telling my whole life with her words, Killing me softly with her song I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd, I felt she found my letters and read each one out loud. I prayed that she would finish but she just kept right on. Strumming my pain with her fingers, Singing my life with her words, Killing me softly with her song, Killing me softly with her song, Telling my whole life with her words, Killing me softly with her song She sang as if she knew me in all my dark despair And then she looked right through me, as if I wasn't there. But she was there this stranger, singing clear and strong. Strumming my pain with her fingers, Singing my life with her words, Killing me softly with her song, Killing me softly with her song, Telling my whole life with her words, Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song
