Cornelis Vreeswijk - sov nu lille prinsen min.
när jag släcker ljuset.
Far ska gå till sin maskin,
mor ska vakta huset.
Sov nu, prinsen, du som kan.
Far går till fabriken han.
Jobbar hårt som katten
hela långa natten.
Månen lyser gul och hel
uppå himlarundan.
Livet är ett penningspel,
ingen slipper undan.
Klaga hjälper ej, kamrat!
Banderoller och plakat
kan man inte äta.
Det ska prinsen veta.
Koppla av nu, lille prins,

tid har du ju gott om.
Använd den när chansen finns,
sedan blir det bråttom.
Sedan blir det bråk och strid
om ackord och övertid.
Än är ingen fara,
ta det lugnt du bara.
Sov nu, lille prinsen min,
när jag släcker ljuset.
Far ska gå till sin maskin,
mor ska vakta huset.
Här hos mor har du det bra,
mor har allt det du vill ha.
För det kan jag lova.
Nu ska prinsen sova.
yey, good Pappa goes to work, so Mamma and baby can stay home and not worry. A child should have comfort and security. Parents' job is to protect children from harshness and cruelty in the world. Teach them as they grow older so they will be aware of danger and to defend themselves when needed, but to avoid danger whenever possible. I wish I could have been there to do all this for you when you really needed a Dad. Now you have learned things the hard way, and by some miracle you have survived, but your survival is still very fragile. I try to give you what I can from so far away, to teach you what I know, to encourage you to do the right things, and to offer the support of a caring friend and a loving Dad. You do so much for me when you show me that you love me and allow me to give you my love, too. The world is a better place--it needs more people like us, even if we only help each other... but you know we help more than just each other. We really are good for each other, and we belong together. I hope you will decide to come soon, but even from far away, it is good to be a part of each other's lives. I love you my little Dotter! <3
