Story Transcript:
Id: Adi tidak sabar untuk tiba di Candi Borobudur.
En: Adi was eager to arrive at Candi Borobudur.
Id: Hari itu bertepatan dengan Hari Raya Waisak, dan dia merasa ini adalah momen yang tepat untuk merayakan sejarah dan kebudayaan.
En: That day coincided with Hari Raya Waisak, and he felt it was the perfect moment to celebrate history and culture.
Id: Setibanya di sana, dia terpesona oleh keindahan candi yang berdiri megah di bawah matahari yang terik.
En: Upon arriving there, he was captivated by the beauty of the temple standing majestically under the scorching sun.
Id: Udara pagi itu harum dengan wangi kembang dan dupa, sementara suara chants para biksu menambah suasana khidmat dan spiritual.
En: The morning air was fragrant with the scent of flowers and incense, while the chants of the monks added a solemn and spiritual atmosphere.
Id: Meskipun musim gugur, matahari tropis masih terasa sangat panas.
En: Even though it was autumn, the tropical sun still felt very hot.
Id: Namun, Adi adalah seorang penggemar sejarah sejati.
En: However, Adi was a true history enthusiast.
Id: Dia ingin menjelajahi setiap sudut candi dan tidak ingin melewatkan satu pun momen penting selama perayaan Waisak.
En: He wanted to explore every corner of the temple and didn't want to miss a single important moment during the Waisak celebration.
Id: Dia terus berjalan, mengabaikan rasa haus dan keringat yang membanjiri wajahnya.
En: He continued to walk, ignoring the thirst and sweat that flooded his face.
Id: Dewi dan Budi, dua pengunjung lainnya, memperhatikan Adi yang tampak terburu-buru.
En: Dewi and Budi, two other visitors, noticed Adi who seemed in a hurry.
Id: "Adi, jangan lupa minum air ya," kata Dewi dengan lembut.
En: "Adi, don't forget to drink water," said Dewi gently.
Id: Namun, Adi hanya mengangguk ringan, lebih fokus pada keindahan relief dan stupa candi.
En: However, Adi just nodded lightly, more focused on the beauty of the reliefs and stupas of the temple.
Id: Ketika acara perayaan dimulai, Adi semakin terhanyut.
En: As the celebration began, Adi became even more absorbed.
Id: Kerumunan orang, musik, dan aroma dupa menambah semangatnya untuk terus bergerak dari satu sudut ke sudut lainnya.
En: The crowd, music, and aroma of incense added to his enthusiasm to keep moving from one corner to another.
Id: Di saat Adi hendak menaiki tangga candi yang curam, pandangannya kabur dan tubuhnya terasa sangat lemas.
En: As Adi was about to climb the steep steps of the temple, his vision blurred and his body felt very weak.
Id: Tiba-tiba, semuanya jadi hitam.
En: Suddenly, everything went black.
Id: Ketika Adi sadar kembali, dia merasakan tetesan air di bibirnya.
En: When Adi regained consciousness, he felt drops of water on his lips.
Id: "Minum, Adi," suara itu datang dari Budi.
En: "Drink, Adi," the voice came from Budi.
Id: Dewi dan Budi menghampirinya, wajah mereka tampak cemas namun penuh perhatian.
En: Dewi and Budi approached him, their faces appearing anxious but full of care.
Id: Mereka menolong Adi duduk di bawah naungan pohon, memberikan sebotol air dingin dan kipas kecil.
En: They helped Adi sit under the shade of a tree, giving him a bottle of cold water and a small fan.
Id: "Terima kasih," kata Adi dengan suara pelan.
En: "Thank you," Adi said softly.
Id: "Aku terlalu memaksakan diri."
En: "I pushed myself too hard."
Id: Bersama-sama, mereka menikmati sisa perayaan dengan lebih santai.
En: Together, they enjoyed the rest of the celebration more leisurely.
Id: Adi sekarang lebih banyak duduk, berbincang dengan Dewi dan Budi tentang sejarah candi dan makna perayaan.
En: Adi now spent more time sitting, chatting with Dewi and Budi about the temple's history and the meaning of the celebration.
Id: Dari pengalaman ini, Adi belajar pelajaran penting: mendengarkan tubuh dan menerima bantuan bukanlah tanda kelemahan.
En: From this experience, Adi learned an important lesson: listening to your body and accepting help is not a sign of weakness.
Id: Saat matahari mulai turun, candi terlihat lebih indah dari sebelumnya.
En: As the sun began to set, the temple looked more beautiful than ever.
Id: Adi merasakan rasa syukur yang mendalam.
En: Adi felt a deep sense of gratitude.
Id: Dia menyadari bahwa pengalaman ini akan selalu dia ingat. Bukan hanya karena kecantikan Borobudur, tetapi karena pertemanan yang ia temukan.
En: He realized that this experience would always be remembered, not just because of the beauty of Borobudur, but because of the friendship he found.
Id: Bersama Dewi dan Budi, dia mengakhiri hari itu dengan senyum, berjanji untuk kembali dengan lebih banyak berhati-hati dan menghargai setiap momen dengan lebih bijak.
En: Together with Dewi and Budi, he ended the day with a smile, promising to return with more caution and to appreciate every moment more wisely.
