Story Transcript:

Sl: Matej in Ana sta se nekega poletnega dopoldneva srečala ob Blejskem jezeru.
En: One summer morning, Matej and Ana met by Lake Bled.

Sl: Sonce je nežno sijevalo in voda je bila kristalno čista.
En: The sun was gently shining, and the water was crystal clear.

Sl: Pripravljala sta se na šolski kulturni festival.
En: They were preparing for the school's cultural festival.

Sl: "Matej, kaj misliš?
En: "Matej, what do you think?

Sl: Kako naj okrasimo naš školski šotor?
En: How should we decorate our school tent?"

Sl: " je vprašala Ana, medtem ko je občudovala labode, ki so plavali po jezeru.
En: Ana asked while admiring the swans swimming on the lake.

Sl: "Mislim, da bi morali uporabiti veliko barvnih papirnatih cvetov.
En: "I think we should use a lot of colorful paper flowers.

Sl: Lahko tudi obesimo nekaj lučk," je predlagal Matej.
En: We can also hang some lights," Matej suggested.

Sl: Ana se je nasmehnila.
En: Ana smiled.

Sl: "To je odlična ideja.
En: "That's an excellent idea.

Sl: Pa še nekaj, potrebujemo glasbo za naš nastop.
En: Also, we need music for our performance.

Sl: Kaj predlagaš?
En: What do you suggest?"

Sl: "Matej je pomislil.
En: Matej thought for a moment.

Sl: "Morda bi lahko uporabili kitaro.
En: "Maybe we could use a guitar.

Sl: Vem, da ima Janez eno in rad igra.
En: I know Janez has one and he loves to play.

Sl: Lahko ga vprašava, če bo igral za nas.
En: We can ask him if he will play for us."

Sl: "Ana je bila navdušena.
En: Ana was excited.

Sl: "Super, to bo res dodalo vzdušje našemu šotoru.
En: "Great, that will really add to the atmosphere of our tent.

Sl: Kako pa bova uredila sedeže za obiskovalce?
En: How should we arrange the seating for the visitors?"

Sl: ""Morda bi lahko uporabila blazine.
En: "Maybe we could use cushions.

Sl: Lahko jih postavimo na tla in ustvarimo prijeten prostor," je rekel Matej.
En: We can place them on the ground and create a cozy space," Matej said.

Sl: Tako sta začela delati.
En: So they began working.

Sl: Izdelovala sta papirnate cvetove, postavljala lučke in uredila blazine.
En: They made paper flowers, set up the lights, and arranged the cushions.

Sl: Obiskala sta tudi Janeza in ga prosila za pomoč.
En: They also visited Janez and asked for his help.

Sl: Janez je z veseljem privolil in obljubil, da bo igral najboljše melodije.
En: Janez happily agreed and promised to play the best tunes.

Sl: Ko je prišel dan festivala, je bil njun šotor pravi ustvarjalni kotiček.
En: When the festival day arrived, their tent became a true creative corner.

Sl: Otroci in odrasli so se z zanimanjem ustavljali in občudovali njuno delo.

Sl: "Uspeh!
En: "Success!"

Sl: " je navdušeno vzkliknila Ana.

Sl: "Res je," je pritrdil Matej.
