Story Transcript:
Hr: Zvuk kiše na platnenim krovovima tržnice u Zagrebu miješa se s mirisom proljetnog cvijeća.
En: The sound of rain on the canvas roofs of the tržnica in Zagreb mingles with the scent of spring flowers.
Hr: Ana se probija kroz gužvu držeći Mateja za ruku.
En: Ana makes her way through the crowd, holding Matej by the hand.
Hr: Proljeće u Zagrebu donosi novu nadu i šarene štandove puni starim knjigama i sjećanjima.
En: Spring in Zagreb brings new hope and colorful stalls filled with old books and memories.
Hr: "Sada ćemo pronaći savršene knjige za našu djecu," kaže Ana.
En: "Now we'll find the perfect books for our children," Ana says.
Hr: Njezina volja da djeci u sirotištu donese radost zrači iz svakog osmijeha.
En: Her desire to bring joy to the children in the orphanage shines through every smile.
Hr: Matej, s osmijehom punim uzbuđenja, razmišlja o pričama koje bi jednog dana htio napisati.
En: Matej, with a smile full of excitement, thinks about the stories he would like to write one day.
Hr: "Moramo pažljivo birati," upozori ona dok staju kraj prvog štanda prepunog knjiga.
En: "We have to choose carefully," she warns as they stop by the first stall overflowing with books.
Hr: Ali oblaci iznad tržnice postaju tamniji, prijeteći kišom.
En: But the clouds above the tržnica are becoming darker, threatening rain.
Hr: "Kiša ne smije pokvariti naš dan," odlučno kaže Ana dok polako prebire po knjigama.
En: "The rain mustn't ruin our day," Ana says resolutely as she slowly picks through the books.
Hr: Matej, iako mlad, sposoban je pregovarač.
En: Matej, although young, is a capable negotiator.
Hr: Vidi knjigu koju želi - stari roman o avanturama.
En: He sees a book he wants—a vintage novel about adventures.
Hr: "Ova knjiga bi mogla biti savršena inspiracija," govori više sebi nego Ani.
En: "This book could be the perfect inspiration," he says more to himself than to Ana.
Hr: "Koliko košta ova knjiga?
En: "How much is this book?"
Hr: " pita Matej prodavača, pokazujući na omiljenu knjigu.
En: Matej asks the vendor, pointing to his favorite book.
Hr: Prodavač je ljutito pogledao prema mračnim oblacima, pa su brzo dogovorili sniženje cijene.
En: The vendor glanced irritably at the dark clouds, so they quickly agreed on a price reduction.
Hr: No kiša počinje sve jače padati.
En: But the rain starts to fall harder.
Hr: Ljudi počinju sklanjati svoje stvari.
En: People begin to pack up their things.
Hr: Voda bubnja po kamenom trgu.
En: Water drums on the stone square.
Hr: Ana i Matej trebaju požuriti, ali tada primijete staru gospođu koja pažljivo sprema knjige u kutiju.
En: Ana and Matej need to hurry, but then they notice an old lady carefully packing books into a box.
Hr: "Možda može pomoći," šapne Matej.
En: "Maybe she can help," Matej whispers.
Hr: Ana kima i prilazi.
En: Ana nods and approaches.
Hr: "Trebamo knjige za našu djecu iz sirotišta," objašnjava Ana, glasom punim nade.
En: "We need books for the children in our orphanage," Ana explains, her voice full of hope.
Hr: Gospođa stane, osvrne se na ostale kutije, i bez riječi im pokloni cijelu kutiju knjiga po jako sniženoj cijeni.
En: The lady pauses, looks at the other boxes, and wordlessly gives them an entire box of books at a very reduced price.
