I ja ću noćas leptir postati,
I will become a butterfly tonight,
A ti za mnom nećeš suzu pustiti.
And you won't cry a tear with me
Gdje mi duša spava, nikad nećeš saznati,
Where my soul sleep, you will never know,
Pokrit će me draga žuto lišće ljubavi.
My darling will cover me with the yellow leaves of love.
I ja ću noćas leptir postati,
I will become a butterfly tonight,
A ti za mnom nećeš svijeću paliti.
And you won't set a flower on fire with me.
I ja ću noćas k nebu letjeti,
And I will tonight fly up to the sky,
A ti za mnom nećeš ruke sklopiti
And you won't hold hands with me.
Gdje mi duša spava, nikad nećeš saznati,
Where my soul sleep, you will never know,
Pokrit će me draga žuto lišće ljubavi
My darling will cover me with the yellow leaves of love.
