Story Transcript:
Sk: V rannom svite začiatkom jari, keď studený vietor už strácal svoju silu a kvety sa nesmelo objavovali v predzáhradkách, Michal sedel vo svojej izbe, prsty opatrne položené na jeho milovanej gitare.
En: In the morning light at the beginning of spring, when the cold wind was losing its force and flowers timidly appeared in front gardens, Michal sat in his room, fingers gently placed on his beloved guitar.
Sk: Bol to chlapec, ktorého radšej nikto nevidel, pokým hral, ale dnes bol iný deň.
En: He was a boy whom no one preferred to see while he played, but today was a different day.
Sk: Dnes sa musel postaviť svojmu strachu.
En: Today, he had to face his fear.
Sk: Talentová šou sa blížila a Jana, jeho najlepšia kamarátka, ho presvedčila, aby spolu s ňou vystúpili na javisku.
En: A talent show was approaching, and Jana, his best friend, persuaded him to go on stage with her.
Sk: Jana bola v Michalovom živote ako svetlo, vždy plná energie a radosti.
En: Jana was like a light in Michal's life, always full of energy and joy.
Sk: "Neboj sa, Michal, spolu to zvládneme," povedala mu s úsmevom, keď na nich v škole viseli plagáty s farebnými kraslicami a zvesťami o blížiacej sa veľkolepej akcii.
En: "Don't worry, Michal, we'll manage together," she told him with a smile as colorful posters with Easter eggs and announcements of the upcoming grand event hung in the school.
Sk: Bola to ich škola, slnkom zaliata a farebná, s výzdobou, ktorá privolávala Veľkú noc.
En: It was their school, sunlit and colorful, with decorations that heralded Easter.
Sk: Každý deň po škole sa stretávali v tichu jeho obývačky.
En: Every day after school, they met in the quiet of his living room.
Sk: Michal hral prvé tóny, zatiaľ čo Jana si ladila hlas.
En: Michal played the first notes while Jana tuned her voice.
Sk: Postupne, ako prúdy hudby plynuli, jeho neistota začala miznúť.
En: Gradually, as the streams of music flowed, his uncertainty began to fade.
Sk: Bol to proces, ale Michal si uvedomoval, že sa učí nielen hrať, ale aj veriť.
En: It was a process, but Michal realized he was learning not just to play, but also to believe.
Sk: Deň talentovej šou prišiel rýchlejšie, než Michal očakával.
En: The day of the talent show arrived faster than Michal expected.
Sk: Javisko bolo pripravené, stolíky zdobené jarnými kvetmi a oblo zároveň voňala koláčmi, ktoré niektorí z rodičov priniesli na oslavu.
En: The stage was prepared, tables adorned with spring flowers, and the hall smelled of cakes that some parents had brought for the celebration.
Sk: Michal cítil, ako sa v jeho bruchu mieša vzrušenie so strachom.
En: Michal felt excitement mixed with fear churning in his stomach.
Sk: Kým stál za oponou, jeho ruky sa chveli.
En: As he stood behind the curtain, his hands trembled.
Sk: Jana ho uchopila za ruku.
En: Jana grabbed his hand.
Sk: "Spomínaj na to, ako sme to cvičili.
En: "Remember how we practiced.
Sk: Stačí, že vidíš mňa," povedala povzbudzujúco a v očiach tej usmiatej dievčiny našiel istotu.
En: Just look at me," she said encouragingly, and in the eyes of that smiling girl, he found certainty.
Sk: Keď sa opona zdvihla, Michal začal hrať prvé akordy.
En: When the curtain rose, Michal began to play the first chords.
Sk: Jeho prsty sa pohybovali po hmatníku ako s tanečníkmi.
En: His fingers moved across the fretboard like dancers.
Sk: Jana začala spievať a jej hlas vyplnil miestnosť sladkými melódiami jari.
En: Jana started singing, and her voice filled the room with sweet melodies of spring.
Sk: Najprv váhal, no keď zahliadol, ako spolužiaci s pozornosťou a nadšením pozorujú ich vystúpenie, jeho odvaha vzrástla.
En: At first, he hesitated, but when he saw how their classmates attentively and enthusiastically watched their performance, his courage grew.
Sk: Záver piesne prebehol rýchlo, ako by chvíle boli vetrom, čo sa preháňa uličkami.
En: The end of the song came quickly, as if moments were the wind rushing through alleys.
Sk: Publikum začalo tlieskať a Michal pocítil, ako mu srdce napĺňa hrdosť.
En: The audience began to clap, and Michal felt pride fill his heart.
Sk: Dokázal to.
En: He did it.
Sk: S Janou sa uklonili a úprimne si vymenili spokojný pohľad.
En: With Jana, they bowed and exchanged a genuinely satisfied look.
Sk: Cesta domov bola naplnená novo nájdenou odvahou.
En: The journey home was filled with newly found courage.
Sk: V uliciach už stáli veľkonočné stromy ozdobené farebnými stužkami.
En: Easter trees decorated with colorful ribbons already stood in the streets.
Sk: Michal si uvedomil, že ten strach, čo ho sužoval, nebol prekážkou, ale dôkazom, že veci, ktoré milujeme, stoja za boj.
En: Michal realized that the fear that tormented him was not an obstacle but proof that the things we love are worth the fight.
Sk: Kde boli obavy, tam teraz oslnivo kvitla sebadôvera.
En: Where there were worries, self-confidence now blossomed beautifully.
Sk: Jarné slnko sa nad týmto obyčajným mestom vznášalo ako symbol nových začiatkov, a jeho lúče hriali Michalovo srdce, lebo sa rozhodol to, čo miluje, zdieľať so svetom.
En: The spring sun hovered over this ordinary town as a symbol of new beginnings, and its rays warmed Michal's heart, because he decided to share what he loved with the world.
