"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful."

Oj, Triglav moj dom
PAZ Vinko Vodopivec - Oj, Triglav, moj dom on top of the Triglav
Oj Triglav, moj dom, kako si krasan,
kako me izvabljas iz nizkih ravan
v poletni vrocini na strme vrhe
da tam si spocije v samoti srce,
kjer potok izvira v skalovju hladan:
oj Triglav, moj dom, kako si krasan!
Oj Triglav, moj dom, cetudi je svet
zacaral s cudesi mi veckrat pogled,
tujina smehljaje kazala mi kras,
le nate sem mislil ljubece ves cas,
o tebi sem sanjal sred' svetlih dvoran:
oj Triglav, moj dom, kako si krasan!
Oj Triglav, v spominu mi je tvoj car,
zato pa te ljubim in bom te vsekdar,
in zadnja ko ura odbila mi bo,
pod tvojim obzorjem naj spava telo,
kjer radostno pticki naznanjajo dan:
oj Triglav, moj dom, kako si krasan!
