POŠTOVANA ANICE!
Dear respected Anica!
Ova moja knjiga, pisana je Tebi,bez Tvoje pomoći tiskali je ne bi.Draga, Anice, od srca Ti hvala,svoju si dobrotu za tu knjigu dala.STIHOM KROZ ŽIVOT, divna knjiga nova,nek' Ti bude noću uspavanka snova.
This book of mine was written for you, dear,without your help it never would be printed here.Dear Anica, from all my heart I thank you so,for all the kindness to this book you chose to show.THROUGH LIFE IN VERSE, a lovely book, and new:each night may it be a lullaby of dreams for you.
Da bi noću, Anice, divne snove snila,a ujutro svježa, puna snage bila.I za divnu tortu što si meni dala,na promociji knjige, od srca Ti hvala.Na mnogo promocija, ja sam često bio,ali malo torti da je tko dobio.U životu, Anice, pratila te sreća,životna Ti staza bila puna cvijeća.Ovo prijateljstvo koje si mi dala,od sveg srca Tebi, najtoplije HVALA!
So you may dream sweet dreams at night, Anica dear,and wake up fresh and full of strength when morning's here.And for the lovely cake that you gave me, too,at the launching of my book, my heartfelt thanks to you.I've often been at launches, many a one,but cakes for anyone were few or none.In life, Anica, may good fortune be your guide,your path through life be strewn with flowers on each side.And for the friendship you have given me, so true,with all my heart, the very warmest THANKS to you!
