Poštovana Anice!
Occasional verse and dedications
Dear Anica!
Ova je divna knjiga pisana tebi,bez Tvoje pomoći štampali je ne bi.Draga Anice, od srca Ti hvala,svoju si dobrotu za tu knjigu dala.STIHOVI KROZ ŽIVOT, divna knjiga nova,nek' Ti bude noću uspavanka snova.Da bi svake noći sretne snove snila,ova divna knjiga, uzorak Ti bila.Zato ovu knjigu čitaj prije snova,svježa, vedra ujutro bit ćeš kao nova.U životu, Anice, pratila Te sreća,životna Ti staza bila puna cvijeća.Prijateljstvo tvoje koje si mi dala,od sveg srca, Anice, na njemu Ti hvala!
This lovely book was written just for you;without your help, they'd not have seen it through.Dear Anica, I thank you from my heart:you gave this book your goodness, and you did your part."VERSES THROUGH LIFE", a lovely book and new:at night let it sing a lullaby of dreams to you.So that each night your dreams be glad and bright,let this dear book show how to dream them right.So read this book before you dream, a page or two;come morning, fresh and glad, you'll wake up good as new.In life, Anica, may good fortune guide your ways,your path of life be full of flowers all your days.For all the friendship you have given from the start,Anica, thank you for it, with all my heart!
