Story Transcript:

Sl: Vetrovna pomlad se je prebujala ob Blejskem jezeru.
En: The windy spring was awakening by Blejsko jezero (Lake Bled).

Sl: Sneg na okoliških Julijskih Alpah se je počasi topil, in hladne vetrovke so napovedovale novo leto.
En: The snow on the surrounding Julijske Alpe (Julian Alps) was slowly melting, and the cold breeze heralded the new year.

Sl: Lokalni prebivalci so se zbrali za Kurentovanje, tradicionalni festival, ki prinaša konec zime.
En: Local residents gathered for Kurentovanje, a traditional festival that marks the end of winter.

Sl: Na jezerni obali je stalo veliko ljudi, ki so se pripravljali na spuščanje papirnatih ladjic, vsaka z upanjem in željo za prihodnost.
En: On the lakeshore, many people were preparing to launch paper boats, each with a hope and wish for the future.

Sl: Mateja je stala ob vodi in gledala vse te barvite ladjice.
En: Mateja stood by the water, watching all these colorful boats.

Sl: Želela je, da bi njena želja bila enako jasna kot modra voda jezera.
En: She wished for her desire to be as clear as the blue water of the lake.

Sl: Mateja je že nekaj časa občutila, da se je zataknila.

Sl: Njena služba je bila varna, toda vsak dan se je spraševala, če je to res to, kar si želi do konca življenja.
En: Her job was secure, but every day she questioned if this was truly what she wanted for the rest of her life.

Sl: "Mateja!
En: "Mateja!"

Sl: " je zaklical njen stari prijatelj Andrej, ki se je ravnokar vrnil v vas po letih potovanj kot umetnik.
En: called her old friend Andrej, who had just returned to the village after years of traveling as an artist.

Sl: "Kako si?
En: "How are you?"

Sl: " njegove iskrive oči so žarele od ustvarjalne strasti.
En: His sparkling eyes shone with creative passion.

Sl: Njegova izkušnja potovanj je bila polna zgodb in Mateja je bila vesela, da ga vidi.
En: His travel experience was full of stories, and Mateja was happy to see him.

Sl: Andrej je izžareval samozavest, ki se je rodila iz izpolnjevanja svojih sanj.
En: Andrej exuded the confidence born from fulfilling his dreams.

Sl: "Razmišljam," je priznala.
En: "I've been thinking," she admitted.

Sl: "Stara služba me ne osrečuje več.
En: "My old job doesn't make me happy anymore."

Sl: "Andrej jo je pogledal z razumevanjem, "Zame je bila pot do umetnosti strašljiva," je dejal.
En: Andrej looked at her with understanding, "For me, the path to art was scary," he said.

Sl: "A nikoli se nisem ozrl nazaj.
En: "But I never looked back.

Sl: Morda boš našla odgovor.
En: Maybe you'll find the answer."
