Let's make this birthday one to remember.

93 years old (Born on June 08, 1931)

Happy Birthday, Ivan Lalic! Another year older, and yet your poetry remains fresher than ever—just like a trusty rusty needle that stitches together timeless verses. We still haven't figured out how you blend passion with measure so flawlessly; perhaps it's poetic sorcery or just literary alchemy.

From Izabrane i nove pesme to the well-loved translations of The Passionate Measure and Fading Contact, each work brings laughter, reflection, and awe-filled sighs. Today we celebrate not only your mastery of words but also the countless moments you've made readers say "Ah!" in admiration—or confusion. Either way, may your lines never fade!
