46
00:05:05,199 --> 00:05:16,079
Speaker 1: Prase nanamnisti stare romnista sebehem zimni ne ros prostira ros vashnikozlo.

47
00:05:16,519 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 3: In brague in the earth turned square. A peculiar magic

48
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,759
spread across the winter afternoon.

49
00:05:21,879 --> 00:05:26,759
Speaker 1: Mir ni de schtpokrival dla zevni kostki k ter se

51
00:05:32,199 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 3: A light rain covered the cobblestones, which glistened under the

52
00:05:35,439 --> 00:05:37,000
soft glow of the street lamps.

53
00:05:37,639 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 1: Ride spihlid o nichkavaren al da it ukritimo.

54
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,639
Speaker 3: People hurried into the surrounding cafes, seeking refuge from the cold.

55
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,519
Speaker 1: Astronomitski oroic sledovals honfulizi.

56
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,879
Speaker 3: The astronomical clock silently observed the hustle and bustle in

57
00:05:59,879 --> 00:06:00,519
the streets.

58
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,399
Speaker 1: Ya nastalla poi no glenbau.

59
00:06:04,199 --> 00:06:10,959
Speaker 3: Cosik Jana stood under one archway, a short distance from

60
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:11,639
the main tower.

61
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: Ye oima prov obraziter potest na pla no atliero ale

62
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:22,839
zakimbez uspijo.

63
00:06:24,439 --> 00:06:27,079
Speaker 3: Her eyes were filled with images she tried to transfer

64
00:06:27,199 --> 00:06:30,560
to the canvas in her studio, but so far without success.

65
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:38,079
Speaker 1: Porta inspirazi a la jacobi samovoval prich.

66
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,639
Speaker 3: She needed inspiration, yet it seemed as if the rain

67
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:43,879
itself washed it away.

68
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: Na Lea seved obievil Marek.

69
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,079
Speaker 3: Suddenly Mark appeared beside.

70
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 1: Her Bill novajkem prase as de shi architektura hostela vata.

71
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,959
Speaker 3: He was a newcomer to and the local architecture had

72
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,399
completely captivated him.

73
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: Prashi usmil se asvimitro hupromru clenbe.

74
00:07:14,199 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 3: It's raining. He smiled and joined Yana under the protection

75
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,560
of the archway with his slightly soaked shoes.

76
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: A la ivdeschi tukras ne vidte.

77
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 3: But even in the rain, it's beautiful here, isn't it?

78
00:07:28,399 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: Jenna sumla yeo nacei.

79
00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 3: Bir Jana smiled back. His enthusiasm was contagious.

80
00:07:38,199 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: Anno brahmasve Kozlo.

81
00:07:42,879 --> 00:07:44,399
Speaker 3: Yes, Prague has its charm.

82
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: Yen Nigi trovic pigi.

83
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 3: Ptisnalla sometimes though one overlooks it, she admitted, zaceelispuumlovit.

84
00:07:55,279 --> 00:07:56,879
Speaker 1: O histori mista.

85
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 3: They started talking about the cities history.

86
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: Mare krichipi bi ti as Novemnista zakimsuya Naso helas rosto

87
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:11,680
tim Zaimem.

88
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,639
Speaker 3: Marek recounted stories of Charles j and the founding of

89
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,639
the new turn, while Jana listened with growing interest.

90
00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:28,199
Speaker 1: Nistokaz nameh nayid no ojiva novi me apti bi.

91
00:08:30,079 --> 00:08:33,039
Speaker 3: The city so well known to her suddenly came alive

92
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,559
with new colors and stories.

93
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,919
Speaker 1: Vite dumad maas vu VLAs nipti bie.

94
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,639
Speaker 3: Do you know that every house here has its own.

95
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: Story marexiskrovkazal naidin z malebni.

96
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 3: DomU, Marek said, with a sparkle in his eye, pointing

97
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,519
to one of the picturesque houses.

98
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:01,879
Speaker 1: Akajda maluvlas obras mista.

99
00:09:03,039 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 3: And every drop of rain paints its own picture of

100
00:09:05,399 --> 00:09:05,759
the city.

101
00:09:06,399 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: Jenna po ti tila yo.

102
00:09:12,639 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 3: Janna felt something change inside her.

103
00:09:15,159 --> 00:09:21,559
Speaker 1: Nayed no stavit o braze jake viguela.

104
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,279
Speaker 3: Suddenly she could imagine images she had never seen before.

105
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 1: Marequi in spirovalisi ukriti ul a deri mese.

106
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 3: Marek inspired her to long for the stories hidden in

107
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,840
every street and every cornice.

108
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,919
Speaker 1: Radlova obras.

109
00:09:46,519 --> 00:09:48,039
Speaker 3: I'd love to see your painting.

110
00:09:48,399 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: Monava noveo navrajo marek slunceuscrirosa obsor obadia named smirrem.

111
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,639
Speaker 3: Maybe I can help you find something new in it,

112
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,039
Marek suggested, before the sun slowly disappeared behind the horizon

113
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,159
and they both went their separate.

114
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: Ways sis novu put Kai.

115
00:10:16,639 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 3: They promised to meet again ya.

116
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:24,159
Speaker 1: Na vidi Rachi obrasushim.

117
00:10:25,919 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 3: Janna knew that her next painting would not be like

118
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:28,759
the ones.

119
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:36,519
Speaker 1: Before Snovi milenka, mivide lamm domvo odrodla nasa chids novo.

120
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,799
Speaker 3: With new thoughts, she headed home, determined to begin.

121
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: Anew attacrivecher sed la platnu nebra too ushi and brahtera

122
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:50,679
vijaze laspodi ruko.

123
00:10:52,519 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 3: And so when she sat down at the canvas that evening,

124
00:10:55,519 --> 00:10:58,240
it was no longer just prague that emerged from her hands.

125
00:10:58,919 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 1: Bela topra poslas poros markm bonai bihu Asti.

126
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,879
Speaker 3: It was the prague she had come to know with Marek,

127
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,600
full of stories and possibilities.

128
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: Druidnamyski, opitzpos taligi aladela j emi driv.

129
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 3: The next day, the square was again full of people,

130
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:33,519
but Jana knew that her perspective on the world and

131
00:11:33,639 --> 00:11:35,879
her art would never be the same as before.

132
00:11:41,759 --> 00:11:45,879
