Trgovačka radnja „Duga“ Belišće
Occasional verse and dedications
The "Duga" Shop in Belišće
U Belišću ima jednaTrgovina „DUGA“,A nekad je tamo bilaGutmanova pruga.
In Belišće there's a shop,"DUGA" is its name;once upon a time right thereGutmann's railway came.
Kad što trebaš za svoj stančić,Navrati u „DUGU“.Ne treba ti, prijatelju,Tražit radnju drugu.
When your flat needs anything,drop in at "DUGA"'s door;you won't need, my friend, to seekout another store.
Kada dođu stručni ljudi,Raznoga zanata,U „DUGI“ će uvijek naći,Dobroga alata.
When the tradesmen come along,skilled in every trade,they will always find at "DUGA"tools that are well made.
Za vodovod razne cijevi,Sve što trebaš ima.I slavina, i ventila,A to treba svima.
Pipes of every kind for plumbing,all you need is there;taps and valves they stock as well,needed everywhere.
Sve za struju, finih žica,Naći ćeš kod „DUGE“:Utikača, prekidača,I još robe druge.
Things electric, fine-gauge wire,"DUGA" has in store,plugs and switches, and besides,other goods galore.
Za krečenje i farbanje,Lakova i boje,Za fasadu, pa i sobeDa okrečiš svoje.
For whitewashing and for painting,lacquers, paints in every hue,so you'll whitewash your facadeand your own rooms, too.
I vijčane razne robe,I eksera, zna se.Sve što trebaš od željeza,Možeš kupit za se.
Screws and bolts of every kind,nails, of course, as well;all the iron things you needthey have here to sell.
Kad proljetno sunce grane,Kada krene trava,Kosilice „DUGA“ nudi,Divota je prava.
When the springtime sun comes out,when the grass grows green,"DUGA" offers mowers then,finest ever seen!
Da nabrojim vrsnu robuKoju „DUGA“ ima,Vjerujte mi, trajalo bi,Dok ne prođe zima.
If I listed every fine thing"DUGA" has for you,trust me, I'd be counting stillwhen the winter's through.
Najbolja je trgovina„DUGA“ u mom kraju,A za cijene raznoj robiSve popuste daju.
"DUGA" is the finest shopin my neck of the woods,and on prices, too, they givediscounts on all goods.
Ako nemaš gotovinu,Ti donesi ček,A kada je visok datum,Može i na poček.
If you're short of cash, then bringa cheque, it does the trick;and if it's post-dated far,you can buy on tick.
Trgovci su vrijedni, revniI vrlo su fer.Garanciju za to daje:Gazda STJEPAN LOKNER!
Diligent and keen, the staff,fair and very proper;and the guarantee is givenby the boss, STJEPAN LOKNER!
