Poštovana Blaženka!
Occasional verse and dedications
Dear Blaženka!
U druženju našem časnom,neke sam Ti knjige dao.Koliko je mojih bilo?Vjeruj, Blažo, nisam znao!
In our friendship, honoured long,I have given books to you.Just how many were of mine?Trust me, Blažo, I never knew!
Slučajno sam ovih dana,u arhivu pogledao.Knjigu: "ŽABLJI SASTANAK" sam,Tebi, Blažo, darovao.
By chance, in these last few days,I have looked my archive through:"THE FROGS' MEETING" was the bookthat, dear Blažo, went to you.
Kad pogledam malo bolje:neka mi ljepota sine.Knjiga meni poklonjena:"NA LJUBIČASTOM PLASTU MJESEČINE".
When I looked a little closer,something lovely shone out bright:and the book you gifted me:"ON THE VIOLET HAYSTACK OF MOONLIGHT".
Poznamo se već odavno.Poštujem Te, trebaš znati.Zato moju šestu knjigu,rado ću Ti darovati.
We have known each other long.I respect you, know it's true;that is why my sixth book, now,I will gladly give to you.
