There was a lone lantern at the edge of a neighborhood
And he illuminated our little childhood
And he lit up the "hide and seek" games
And in his light the "Kaddars" would come.
When the "cops" almost caught the "thief"
There was Mother's voice running in his pleas:
Home, come to dinner, it's too late,
It's time to go to bed, we need to get up tomorrow! "
"Just another moment mom, just another little moment
You're always ruining when you'm almost
We did not even get to start at all
We didn't even get to play a little "
But our pleas were to no avail.
There used to be a lone flashlight at the edge of a neighborhood
And by him a fence and a gate and a garden
And there we told her what everyone was saying
On the doorsteps of all the girls in the world.
But when I did, I had already plucked a million leaves
So pet her request - smooth her head -
She said: Sorry, I have an exam at the seminary,
It's time to go to bed, I have to get up tomorrow.
"Just another moment, Rina, just one second,
You're always ruining when you'm almost
We did not even get to chat a little "-
But my pleas then were to no avail.
There used to be a lone flashlight at the edge of a neighborhood
And there I made myself one last cigarette
And past memories ignited in me guilt
Before returning to her dresses and there
And while I was hallucinating for years
And her face is already visible from windows:
Come on in, come home, since -
We will go to bed immediately, need to get up tomorrow.
Just another moment, please, do not be angry
You always ruin the highlights
I just dreamed how good it was these
But my pleas then were to no avail.
There was a single lantern, years passed
And another light now shines in the dwellings
And the neighborhoods found refuge in hymns
But the same voices in the street and in the gardens.
And when a missus leans outside on his bike
And the whole yard is full of its whistles
I go out to the balcony and read:
Listen boy, go home, or I'm coming down.
Just another child, just another moment
Not bad, play a little, shouted - but a little
So I wanted to scare him like that
But I did not even go down.
