Dobrú noc, má milá, dobrú noc,

Bonne nuit

Language: French (Français) after the Slovak (Slovenčina)

Bonne nuit, ma bien-aimée,
Que Dieu te protège,
Bonne nuit, dors bien,
Fais de doux rêves ! 

Fais un beau rêve !
Et en te réveillant, crois en lui :
Crois bien que je t’aime
Et que mon cœur t’appartient.
