Publisher's Synopsis
Once upon a time there lived a poor tailor
Nekoc je zivel reven krojac
this poor tailor had a son called Aladdin
ta ubogi krojac je imel sina Aladina
Aladdin was a careless, idle boy who did nothing
Aladin je bil brezbrizen, brezdelen fant, ki ni naredil nicesar
although, he did like to play ball all day long
ceprav se je rad ves dan igral z zogo
this he did in the streets with other little idle boys
to je pocel na ulicah z drugimi malimi brezdelnimi decki
This so grieved the father that he died
To je oceta tako razzalostilo, da je umrl
his mother cried and prayed, but nothing helped
mati je jokala in molila, a nic ni pomagalo
despite her pleading, Aladdin did not mend his ways
kljub njenemu prigovarjanju se Aladin ni popravil
