Occasional verse and dedications
To Katica Eper and Marica Opančar
Kad smo bili u Mađarskom gradu,u Komlu se družili k'o druge.Ova knjiga bit će uspomena,kada prođu i godine duge.
When we were in that town in Hungary,in Komló, as comrades we got on;this book will be a keepsake for us allwhen the long years, too, have come and gone.
Narodnu smo nošnju izlagalii Valpovo naše predstavljali.Tu ljepotu često ćemo sniti,ona će nam u sjećanju biti.
Our folk costume we put on display,and we stood for our Valpovo that day.That beauty we shall often dream again,and in our memory it will remain.
Prošao je život kao rijekai odnio dio naših snova."DRUGE" moje, iskreno Vam želim,da Vam radost pruži knjiga ova.
Life has gone by the way a river goes,and part of all our dreams away it took;my “comrades”, I sincerely wish you boththat joy may come to you from this, my book.
