If you want to add a description to a navigational menu in WordPress like this

add the following function as filter:

  function description_in_nav_el($item_output, $item, $depth, $args){
    return $item_output;
  	return preg_replace('/([^&lt;]*?)<span>{$item-&gt;post_content}</span>&lt;", $item_output);
  }

  add_filter('walker_nav_menu_start_el', 'description_in_nav_el', 10, 4);
