№ 33

laku noć, moje dame, laku noć

bliži se kraj ove operete

laku noć, moje dame, laku noć

odlazim da spavam

čist

bez slojeva šminke

godinama nanošenih

laku noć, moje dame, laku noć

da mi je svaka od vas podarila samo

po kamenčić tuge

sad bih morao da unajmim nosače

srećom

bilo je tu i radosti

nadam se da i vi pokatkad tako

mislite

laku noć moje dame, laku noć

nije prošao ni jedan dan mog života

a da se ne setim

ponaosob

svake od vas

vaših mirisa

očiju

osmeha

grudi

bokova

vaših glasova

godine su ih pretvorile u hor

anđela

a uz takvu muziku

divno je tonuti

u san

laku noć, moje dame, laku noć 

good night, my ladies, good night

we’re getting close to the end

of this operetta

good night, my ladies, good night

I’m going to bed

clean-faced

I’ve removed the layers of makeup

applied for years

good night, my ladies, good night

if each one of you had given me

but a pebble of sadness

I would have had to hire porters by now

luckily

there’s been some joy

along the way

i hope you think so too

at least sometimes

good night, my ladies, good night

not a day has gone by

that I haven’t thought of

each one of you

personally

each of your fragrances

eyes

smiles

breasts

hips

your voices

the passing years have turned them

into a choir of angels

what heavenly harmony

to sing me to sleep

good night, my ladies, good night
