Jirka stál na dvoře své farmy v jižních Čechách a prohlížel si jasný zimní den.

Jirka stood in the courtyard of his farm in southern Čechy and admired the bright winter day.

Sníh pokrýval pole a kapky rosy zdobily střechu stodoly jako perly.

Snow covered the fields, and droplets of dew decorated the roof of the barn like pearls.

Jirka měl farmu už mnoho let, ale tichý strach z krav ho nikdy neopustil.

Jirka had owned the farm for many years, but a quiet fear of cows never left him.

Dnes se však musel postavit mnohem většímu problému.

Today, however, he had a much bigger problem to face.

"Jirko!"

"Jirko!"

zavolala jeho sestřenice Hana, když přiběhla od domu.

called his cousin Hana as she ran from the house.

"Krava utekla a zapadla do bahna!"

"A cow escaped and got stuck in the mud!"

Jirka vzdychl.

Jirka sighed.

Bylo odpoledne, už brzy se setmí.

It was afternoon, and it would soon get dark.

Musel jednat rychle, ale když přišlo na zacházení s kravami, jeho odvaha mizela.

He had to act quickly, but when it came to handling cows, his courage vanished.

"Dobře, Hano, půjdeme tam," řekl nakonec, když se začal oblékat do teplého kabátu.

"Alright, Hano, we'll go there," he said finally as he started putting on his warm coat.

Když dorazili k bahnitému místu, Hana, Jirka a Karel, veselý farmářův pomocník, spatřili krávu zoufale uvíznutou v blátě.

When they arrived at the muddy area, Hana, Jirka, and Karel, the cheerful farmhand, saw the cow desperately trapped in the mud.

Kráva byla vystrašená, nohy hluboko v blátě a oči plné strachu.

The cow was frightened, its legs deep in the mud and eyes full of fear.

"Myslím, že bych měl vtipy," začal Karel se smíchem, "ale to by možná jen zhoršilo situaci."

"I think I should make some jokes," started Karel with a laugh, "but that might just make the situation worse."

Hana se snažila uklidnit krávu jemným hlasem.

Hana tried to calm the cow with a gentle voice.

"Neboj se, krásko, pomůžeme ti," šeptala.

"Don't worry, beautiful, we'll help you," she whispered.

Jirka stál poblíž, přemýšlel o svých možnostech a bojoval se strachem.

Jirka stood nearby, pondering his options and battling his fear.

Konečně se rozhodl.

Finally, he made a decision.

"Spojte se," pobídl je Jirka s větší rozhodností.

"Let's team up," urged Jirka with more determination.

"Musíme tu krávu vytáhnout dříve, než se setmí."

"We need to pull the cow out of here before it gets dark."

Hana pokračovala v jemném ujišťování krávy a Karel se vložil do práce, jak jen mohl.

Hana continued her gentle reassurance to the cow, and Karel got to work as best he could.

Společně s Jirkou, který překonal svůj strach, vytáhli krávu z bahna.

Together with Jirka, who overcame his fear, they pulled the cow out of the mud.

Byla to náročná práce, ale nakonec se podařilo krávu zachránit.

It was tough work, but in the end, they managed to save the cow.

"Jo, to byla sranda, co?"

"Yeah, that was fun, huh?"

zasmál se Karel, když se všichni chystali k návratu do stodoly.

laughed Karel as they all prepared to head back to the barn.

Jirka unaveně pokýval hlavou, ale i on se lehce usmál.

Jirka nodded wearily but also smiled slightly.

Hana přikývla.

Hana nodded.

"Jsem ráda, že jsme na to byli všichni," řekla, když vedli krávu zpět na dvůr.

"I’m glad we were all in this together," she said as they led the cow back to the yard.

"Díky za odvahu, Jirko."

"Thanks for your bravery, Jirko."

Jirka se zastavil a s úsměvem pohlédl na oba své přátele.

Jirka stopped and looked at both his friends with a smile.

"Bez vás bych to nezvládl," přiznal.

"I wouldn't have managed it without you," he admitted.

"Možná se toho trochu přestanu bát."

"Maybe I'll stop being so scared of this."

Když se kráva vrátila do teplé stodoly, Jirka si uvědomil, že strach lze překonat s pomocí přátel.

As the cow returned to the warm barn, Jirka realized that fear can be overcome with the help of friends.

Zimní den, který začal chaoticky, skončil úspěchem.

A winter day that started chaotically ended in success.

To vše díky odvaze, teamworku a kousku humoru.

All thanks to courage, teamwork, and a bit of humor.
