„BOCANJEVČANKA“ vam jebiljna apoteka.Za sve bilje i raslinjeona ima lijeka.

"Bocanjevčanka" is for youa pharmacy for plants and land:for every herb and growing thingthe cure is close at hand.

Trgovine dvije ima,važno je da znate.U Belišću „KOD JABLANA“,u Valpovu „KOD MATE“.

It has two shops, and you should know,so write their places down:"Kod Jablana" in Belišće,"Kod Mate", Valpovo town.

Tu se može nabaviti,što ti srce želi.Sva je roba prvoklasna,da te Bog veseli!

Here you'll find whatever thingyour heart may hold most dear;all the goods are first-class ware,may God bring you good cheer!

Fungicida, herbicidai sjemenja, zna se,pa pilića za tovljenje,možeš kupit za se.

Fungicides and herbicidesand seeds, that's understood;and chicks for fattening, which youcan buy for your own good.

Gnojiva su razne vrstei sadnice voća,i trsova sortnog grožđa.Odlična kakvoća!

Fertilisers, every kind,and saplings of fruit trees,and vines of grapes in chosen sorts:top quality, all these!

Sve za agrar tu ćeš naći,nećeš požaliti,samo reci svoje želje,poslužen ćeš biti.

Everything for farms is here,and you'll have no regret;just tell them what you'd like to have,and that is what you'll get.

Kupi puno, plati malo,čuvaj novac za se.A to će ti ostvariti:„BOCANJEVČANKA“, zna se!

Buy a lot and pay a little,let your savings grow;and who'll make that come true for you?"Bocanjevčanka", you know!
