Story Transcript:
Hr: Dubrovnik je cijela svijet spravljena od kamena.
En: Dubrovnik is a world entirely made of stone.
Hr: Luka stoji na starim zidinama, promatrajući plavetnilo Jadranskog mora.
En: Luka stands on the ancient city walls, gazing at the blueness of the Adriatic Sea.
Hr: Proljeće je obuklo grad u bezbroj boja, a turisti s radošću istražuju svaki kut.
En: Spring has dressed the city in countless colors, and tourists eagerly explore every corner.
Hr: Zrak miriše na sol i cvjetove.
En: The air smells of salt and flowers.
Hr: Luka je mlad i ambiciozan.
En: Luka is young and ambitious.
Hr: Nedavno je dobio ponudu za posao u inozemstvu - prilika koja se pruža samo jednom u životu.
En: He recently received a job offer abroad—a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Hr: Međutim, mora napustiti rodni grad, mjesto gdje su svi njegovi korijeni i sjećanja.
En: However, he must leave his hometown, the place where all his roots and memories are.
Hr: "Ivana i Marko će mi nedostajati," razmišlja dok polako šeta zidinama.
En: "Ivana and Marko will miss me," he thinks as he slowly walks along the walls.
Hr: Ivana je njegova sestra, uvijek ga je bodrila u svemu.
En: Ivana is his sister, always supportive in everything.
Hr: Marko je najbolji prijatelj, uvijek spreman za avanturu.
En: Marko is his best friend, always ready for an adventure.
Hr: Luka zastane kod Lovrijenca, kule koja se ponosno uzdiže nad morem.
En: Luka stops at Lovrijenac, the fortress that proudly rises above the sea.
Hr: Promatra valove kako udaraju o stijene i razmišlja o prošlosti.
En: He watches the waves crash against the rocks and thinks about the past.
Hr: Ovdje je saznao sve o hrabrosti, zajedništvu i ponosu.
En: Here, he learned all about courage, unity, and pride.
Hr: "Hoće li odlazak izbaciti te vrijednosti iz mog života?
En: "Will leaving strip these values from my life?"
Hr: " pita se.
En: he wonders.
Hr: Hodajući dalje, dolazi do Minčete.
En: Walking further, he reaches Minčeta.
Hr: Vjetar nosi zvukove i smijeh iz grada ispod.
En: The wind carries the sounds and laughter from the city below.
Hr: Zamislio je sebe u stranoj zemlji, među nepoznatim licima.
En: He imagined himself in a foreign country, among unfamiliar faces.
Hr: Onda promatrao Dubrovnik u svoj svojoj ljepoti, zaključivši da mu je srce uvijek ovdje.
En: Then he looked at Dubrovnik in all its beauty, concluding that his heart will always be here.
Hr: "Ali", pomisli, "odlazak ne znači zaborav.
En: "But," he thought, "leaving doesn't mean forgetting.
Hr: Moje korijene uvijek nosim sa sobom.
En: I carry my roots with me always."
Hr: "Popne se na vrh zidine.
En: He climbs to the top of the wall.
Hr: Pogled je veličanstven, otvoren na sve strane.
En: The view is magnificent, open on all sides.
Hr: Tu, okružen ljepotom i poviješću, osjeti jasnoću.
En: There, surrounded by beauty and history, he feels clarity.
Hr: Luka spozna da povremeni vjetar promjena znači rast, a njegovo srce nikad neće zaboraviti mjesto gdje pripada.
En: Luka realizes that an occasional wind of change means growth, and his heart will never forget the place he belongs to.
Hr: Odlučio je.
En: He has decided.
Hr: Spakirat će se i otići, ali nikad neće izgubiti vezu s domom.
