Sr: Na starom, kaldrmisanim trgu grada, postojala je kafana "Zlatni lav".
En: On the old, cobblestone square of the city, there used to be a tavern called "Golden Lion".

Sr: Tu se smejala, pevala i jela, daleko poznata po svojim specijalitetima.
En: There, people laughed, sang, and ate, widely known for its specialties.

Sr: Jovan i Ana su sedeli za drvenim stolom pored prozora, razgovarajući i smejuci se.
En: Jovan and Ana sat at a wooden table by the window, talking and laughing.

Sr: Došao je i Nikola, njihov stari drug, i priključio im se za ručak.

Sr: Jovan je bio veliki ljubitelj začinjene hrane, tako je naručio pikantne ćevape sa ljutim ajvarom.
En: Jovan was a big fan of spicy food, so he ordered the hot cevapi with spicy ajvar.

Sr: Ana je više volela blage ukuse, pa je poručila pileću supu sa domaćim rezancima.
En: Ana preferred milder flavors, so she ordered chicken soup with homemade noodles.

Sr: Nikola nije bio gladan, samo je naručio čašu belog vina da im pravi društvo.
En: Nikola wasn't hungry, only ordering a glass of white wine to keep them company.

Sr: Razgovor je bio živahatan, a konobar zauzet pričama drugih gostiju nije primetio da je poslužio Jovanovu hranu Ani, a Aninu hranu Jovanu.
En: The conversation was lively, and the waiter, busy with other guests' stories, didn't notice that he served Jovan's food to Ana and Ana's food to Jovan.

Sr: Jovan, opušten i raspoložen, bez gledanja počeo je da jede supu koja se našla ispred njega.
En: Jovan, relaxed and in good spirits, started eating the soup in front of him without looking.

Sr: Ana, isto tako zanesena pričom, zgrabila je viljušku i krenula s ćevapima.
En: Similarly engrossed in conversation, Ana grabbed a fork and started on the cevapi.

Sr: Tek kada je Jovan osetio blagi ukus pilećeg mesa u ustima, shvatio je da nešto nije u redu.
En: Only when Jovan tasted the mild chicken in his mouth did he realize something was wrong.

Sr: Podigao je pogled ka Ani koja je bila zauzeta gušću od pikantnih začina.
En: He looked up at Ana, who was preoccupied with the spicier dish.

Sr: "Ana, mislim da smo zamutili narudžbine!" rekao je Jovan kroz kašalj.
En: "Ana, I think we've mixed up the orders!" Jovan said, coughing.

Sr: Ana, preznojena od ljutine jela, jedva je uspela da izgovori: "Mislim da si u pravu!".
En: Sweating from the heat of the dish, Ana barely managed to say, "I think you're right!"

Sr: Njihova lica su odrazila iznenađenje, a zatim su se svi troje grohotom nasmejali.
En: Their faces reflected surprise, then all three burst into laughter.

Sr: Nikola je podigao čašu vina i prokomentarisao: "Zdravlje je što ste probali nešto novo!"
En: Nikola raised his glass of wine and commented, "Cheers to trying something new!"

Sr: Jovan i Ana su zamenili tanjire, a konobar se izvinjavao što nije pažljivije slušao.
En: Jovan and Ana swapped plates, and the waiter apologized for not paying closer attention.

Sr: Ručak se nastavio uz još više smeha i toplih razgovora.
En: The lunch continued with even more laughter and warm conversations.

Sr: На крају, грешка је учврстила пријатељство.
En: In the end, the mistake strengthened their friendship.

Sr: Spoj različitih ukusa u "Zlatnom lavu" podsetio ih je da je život pun iznenađenja, kao i da greške ponekad donose nove, srećne uspomene.
En: The mix-up of different flavors at the "Golden Lion" reminded them that life is full of surprises and that mistakes sometimes bring new, happy memories.

Sr: Od tog dana, Jovan, Ana i Nikola su često šalili na račun zamene narudžbina, uvek se sećajući tog vedrog popodneva u kafani.
En: From that day on, Jovan, Ana, and Nikola often joked about the order mix-up, always remembering that joyful afternoon at the tavern.
