Occasional verse and dedications
To Darko Alšić, President of KUD Marijanci
POŠTOVANI GOSPODINE DARKO!
MY RESPECTED MISTER DARKO!
Neka igra kolo na Ćimenu,ta ljepota održat se mora,nagrada je to Vašem imenu,to veselje narodnog folklora.
On the Ćimen let the kolo spin,for such beauty must be kept alive;it's the prize your name has come to win,the gladness of our folk: long may it thrive!
Sve što bude Vaša ruka dalai budućnost reći će Vam HVALA!
For all your hand will give, and give anew,the future too will tell you: THANK YOU!
Poštovanom Darku Alšiću,Autor
