Poslušaj me, dragi Lovro!
Occasional verse and dedications
Listen to Me, Dear Lovro!
U postelji kada budeš,neka ti je želja ova,da ti mama iz te knjigečita pjesme prije snova.
When you're lying in your bed,let your wish be this, my dear:that your mum, from this same book,reads you poems when dreams draw near.
Pa ćeš brzo ti zaspatii predivne snove sniti,a ujutro kad se digneš,ti ćeš, Lovro, velik biti.
Then you'll quickly fall asleep,dream the loveliest dreams of all,in the morning, when you're up,Lovro, you'll be big and tall!
I sve one divne igre,što si snio ove noći,da ti bude lijepo, Lovro,one će ti same doći.
All the lovely games you playedin your dreams the whole night through,so that, Lovro, you'll be glad,by themselves they'll come to you.
