Story Transcript:

Sl: Nekoč se je na obali Blejskega jezera odvijala nenavadna pustolovščina.
En: Once upon a time, an unusual adventure unfolded on the shore of Lake Bled.

Sl: Luka, Ana in Neža so se odločili za ribolov.
En: Luka, Ana, and Neža decided to go fishing.

Sl: Blejsko jezero je mirno valovalo, ribe pa so plavale po mirni vodi.
En: The lake was gently rippling, and the fish were swimming in the calm water.

Sl: Luka je že od jutra iskal svojo najljubšo nogavico.
En: Since morning, Luka had been searching for his favorite sock.

Sl: Bil je prepričan, da jo je izgubil ob jezeru, ko so prišli.
En: He was convinced that he had lost it by the lake when they arrived.

Sl: Ana in Neža sta se smejali in spraševali, kako lahko kdo zgubi samo eno nogavico.
En: Ana and Neža laughed and wondered how someone could lose just one sock.

Sl: Kot sonce je zahajalo, Luka je vrgel svojo ribiško vrv v vodo in čakal.
En: As the sun set, Luka cast his fishing line into the water and waited.

Sl: Neža je imela piknik košaro, polno dobrot, Ana pa je igrala na kitaro in peli so pesmi.
En: Neža had a picnic basket full of goodies, while Ana played the guitar and they sang songs.

Sl: Vse je bilo lepo, dokler Luka ni začutil nenadnega potega na svoji ribiški palici.
En: Everything was beautiful until Luka suddenly felt a strong tug on his fishing rod.

Sl: "Ujel sem nekaj velikega!" je vzkliknil.
En: "I've caught something big!" he exclaimed.

Sl: Vsi so stekli k njemu in z nestrpnostjo opazovali.
En: Everyone ran to him and eagerly watched.

Sl: Z velikim naporom je Luka izvlekel iz vode... ribo? Ne, to ni bila riba.
En: With a great effort, Luka pulled out of the water... a fish? No, it wasn't a fish.

Sl: V zraku je visela mokra, siva stvar.
En: In the air hung a wet, grey thing.

Sl: "Moja nogavica!" je kričal Luka, misleč, da jo je končno našel.
En: "My sock!" Luka shouted, thinking he had finally found it.

Sl: Ana in Neža pa nista mogli zadržati smeha, ker to ni bila Lukova nogavica, ampak velika riba, ki je bila po naključju enake barve kot pogrešana nogavica.
En: Ana and Neža couldn't help but laugh because it wasn't Luka's sock but a big fish that happened to be the same color as the missing sock.

Sl: "O Luka, morda je riba želela topla stopala," je šaljivo rekla Neža, in vsi so se smejali.
En: "Oh Luka, perhaps the fish wanted warm feet," Neža jokingly said, and everyone laughed.

Sl: Na koncu dneva so trije prijatelji spoznali, da niso samo ujeli rib, ampak tudi nepozabno spomine.
En: At the end of the day, the three friends realized that they not only caught fish but also unforgettable memories.

Sl: Luka je spoznal, da je sreča v majhnih stvareh in v dobri družbi.
En: Luka realized that happiness lies in small things and in good company.

Sl: Z nogavicami ali brez njih.
En: With or without socks.

Sl: Od tistega dne naprej, kadar koli so šli na ribolov ob Blejskem jezeru, so preverili, ali imajo vse nogavice, in skupaj so se veselili novih dogodivščin, ki so čakale na slikovitih obalah.
En: From that day on, whenever they went fishing at Lake Bled, the three friends checked to make sure they had all their socks, and they joyfully looked forward to new adventures that awaited on the picturesque shores.
