by Jovan Jovanović Zmaj (1833 - 1904)

Mali Radojica
Language: Croatian (Hrvatski) 
Radojica mali pred majkom se hvali: 
"Majko moja mila da si opazila, 
kako malo prvo popeh se na drvo!
Rekla bi mi, da sam ptica, 
ili mala vjeverica."
Ali majka stara Radi odgovara: 
"Za miloga Boga, nemoj činit toga, 
jer ćeš pasti lako, bit će naopako."
No naš mali Rade slušati ne znade,
već on kao prvo opet će na drvo;
ne dosegne grane, omakne se, pane,
i prelomi ruku na veliku muku!
