Once upon a time there lived a poor tailor

Zivio jednom jedan siromasan kroja?

this poor tailor had a son called Aladdin

ovaj siromasni kroja? imao je sina Aladina

Aladdin was a careless, idle boy who did nothing

Aladin je bio nemaran, besposlen dje?ak koji nije radio nista

although, he did like to play ball all day long

iako se volio igrati loptom po cijele dane

this he did in the streets with other little idle boys

to je radio na ulicama s drugim besposlenim dje?acima

This so grieved the father that he died

To je oca toliko ozalostilo da je umro

his mother cried and prayed, but nothing helped

majka je plakala i molila, ali nista nije pomoglo

despite her pleading, Aladdin did not mend his ways

unato? njezinom preklinjanju, Aladdin se nije popravio
