Our Dear Little Granddaughter!

Pjesma je napisana u srcu, onako kako ju je pjesnik otisnuo · The poem as he printed it, inside a heart

Draga naša unučice!Sve najbolje što sad znamo,rođendan ti čestitamo!Pa makar si sada snaša,unuka si ipak naša.Sve najbolje, to je naša želja,dobrog zdravlja i puno veselja!Nek' ti bude sreća svaka,to ti žele i djeda i baka!

Our dear little granddaughter!All the best that we can say:happy birthday to you today!Even though you're now a wife,you're our granddaughter for life.All the best: that is our wish for you,good health, and lots of joy and gladness too!May all luck be yours, and cheer:so wish both your Grandpa and Grandma, dear!
