En: The sun was pleasantly warming the air when Balázs was walking in the schoolyard. Hu: A fák lombjai között játszott a napsugár, és a távolból hallatszott a tücskök ciripelése. En: Sunlight played among the leaves of the trees, and the chirping of crickets could be heard from afar. Hu: A lankás dombok ölelésében elterülő bentlakásos iskola régi, mohos falai között különleges hangulat uralkodott. En: A special atmosphere reigned within the old, mossy walls of the boarding school nestled in the embrace of rolling hills. Hu: Balázs azonban nem tudott a nyarak vidámságára figyelni.

Hu: Az iskolai épületen belül, a hosszú, hűvös folyosók nyugodt menedéket nyújtottak a világ zajától.
