Saule lēni pazuda aiz Kārļa kalna, un debesis kļuva tumšas.

The sun slowly disappeared behind Kārlis' hill, and the sky grew dark.

Andris un Līga bija mežā, kā ieslodzīti bezceļa labirintā.

Andris and Līga were in the forest, trapped in a maze without a path.

Viņi nolēma iet pastaigā pa Gaujas nacionālo parku, bet tagad viņi bija apmaldījušies.

They had decided to take a walk through Gauja National Park, but now they were lost.

"Līga, mēs esam nepareizi nogriezušies," Andris teica ar raustīto balsi.

"Līga, we’ve taken the wrong turn," Andris said with a trembling voice.

"Jā, bet mēs atradīsim ceļu," atbildēja Līga ar cerību acīs.

"Yes, but we’ll find the way," Līga replied, hope shining in her eyes.

Viņa pacēla karti un mēģināja to izpētīt.

She picked up the map and tried to study it.

Pamazām kļuva tumšs.

Gradually, it became dark.

Nakts mežs bija biedējošs un pilns ar dīvainām skaņām.

The night forest was frightening and full of strange sounds.

Koku ēnas izskatījās kā draudīgi tēli.

The shadows of the trees looked like threatening figures.

"Mums jāpārnakšņo šeit," sacīja Andris.

"We have to spend the night here," said Andris.

"Kur?

"Where?"

" vaicāja Līga, trīcot aukstajās naktīs.

Līga asked, shivering in the cold night.

"Meklēsim pietiekami lielu koku.

"Let's find a big enough tree.

Viņš mūs pasargās," Atbildēja Andris.

It will protect us," Andris responded.

Viņi atrada vecu ozolu un sēdēja tā pakājē.

They found an old oak tree and sat down at its base.

Andris iekūra ugunskuru.

Andris lit a small fire.

Mazā liesma deva siltumu un cerību.

The tiny flame brought warmth and hope.

Viņi dalījās niecīgā ēdiena devā, ko viņi bija paņēmuši līdzi.

They shared the small portion of food they had brought with them.

"Mēs esam stipri," teica Andris, "Un mēs izdzīvosim.

"We are strong," Andris said, "And we will survive."

""Nāc rīts, mēs atradīsim taku," atbildēja Līga.

"Come morning, we will find the path," Līga replied.

Viņa izsmeļošajā nogurumā tika iemigusi.

Exhausted, she fell asleep.

Kad pirmā saules stara gaisma iekrita cauri koku lapām, Andris un Līga pamodās.

When the first light of the sun shone through the leaves of the trees, Andris and Līga woke up.

Viņi izbaudīja jauko rīta klusumu un paļāvību.

They enjoyed the tranquil morning and felt a sense of reassurance.

"Mēs sāksim no jauna," sacīja Līga.

"We’ll start anew," said Līga.

Viņa uzlaboja karti un norādīja uz dienvidu pusi.

She adjusted the map and pointed to the south.

Ceļojot pa meža stumbriem, viņi dzirdēja upes burbuļošanu.

As they journeyed through the forest trunks, they heard the babbling of a river.

Tas dod viņiem orientieri.

It gave them a sense of direction.

Viņi sekoja skaņai un nonāca līdz Gaujas krastam.

They followed the sound and reached the banks of the Gauja River.

"Upes krasts mūs vadīs," Andris sacīja, aplēsot maršrutu.

"The riverbank will guide us," Andris said, calculating their route.

Stundas pagāja, un viņi ceļoja gar upi.

Hours passed as they traveled along the river.

Beidzot viņi iznāca uz plašāka ceļa.

Eventually, they came upon a wider path.

Tur bija zīme ar uzrakstu "Svarīga taka".

There was a sign reading "Main Trail."

Tā norādīja atpakaļ uz stāvvietu.

It pointed back toward the parking lot.

"Mēs to izdarījām," sacīja Līga, jūtami atvieglojot.

"We did it," Līga said, feeling a palpable sense of relief.

Beidzot, noguruši un apmierināti, viņi atgriezās pie savas mašīnas.

Finally, tired and satisfied, they returned to their car.

Viņi tika mājās drošībā, un šis piedzīvojums bija kaut kas, kas viņiem būs sirdīs mūžīgi.

They made it home safely, and this adventure would forever be in their hearts.

Un tā, Andris un Līga izdzīvoja cilvēciskas grūtības un dabas neparedzamību.

And so, Andris and Līga overcame human hardship and the unpredictability of nature.

Tas viņus darīja stiprākus un vienotus.

It made them stronger and more united.
