Da: Forårssolen skinnede blidt over Tivoli i København.
En: The spring sun gently shone over Tivoli in København.

Da: Tulipanerne stod i fuldt flor, mens latter og lyden af karuseller fyldte luften.
En: The tulips were in full bloom, while laughter and the sound of carousels filled the air.

Da: Jens og Signe gik hånd i hånd gennem haven, hvor duften af blomster blandede sig med ny poppede popcorn.
En: Jens and Signe walked hand in hand through the gardens, where the scent of flowers mingled with freshly popped popcorn.

Da: Jens var nervøs, men ikke på grund af rutschebanen, de nærmede sig.
En: Jens was nervous, but not because of the roller coaster they were approaching.

Da: Han havde en dyrebar ring gemt i lommen og en plan i tankerne.
En: He had a precious ring hidden in his pocket and a plan in mind.

Da: Mens de stod i kø til den store rutschebane, mærkede han ringen, sikret i en lille fløjlspose.
En: As they stood in line for the big roller coaster, he felt the ring, secured in a small velvet pouch.

Da: Dette skulle være dagen, tænkte han, dagen hvor han ville overraske Signe med et spørgsmål, han havde tænkt på i månedsvis.
En: This should be the day, he thought, the day he would surprise Signe with a question he had been pondering for months.

Da: Rutschebanen susede afsted, og Signe skreg af fryd.
En: The roller coaster sped along, and Signe screamed in delight.

Da: Jens prøvede at nyde turen, men hans tanker var hele tiden på ringen og det kommende øjeblik.
En: Jens tried to enjoy the ride, but his thoughts were constantly on the ring and the upcoming moment.

Da: Da de steg ud af vognen, stak han hånden i lommen for at tjekke ringen.
En: As they got out of the carriage, he reached into his pocket to check the ring.

Da: Hans mave sank.
En: His stomach sank.

Da: Lommen var tom.
En: The pocket was empty.

Da: "Signe, jeg tror, jeg har mistet noget vigtigt," sagde Jens, mens noget panik bredte sig i hans stemme.
En: "Signe, I think I've lost something important," said Jens, as a hint of panic spread in his voice.

Da: "Hvad er det?"
En: "What is it?"

Da: spurgte Signe, uvidende om betydningen af det tabte.
En: Signe asked, unaware of the significance of the lost item.

Da: "Et... et minde," improviserede Jens.
En: "A... a memory," improvised Jens.

Da: "Vil du hjælpe mig med at lede?"
En: "Will you help me search for it?"

Da: De begyndte at gå gennem hele parken, tilbage ad den vej, de havde fulgt, siden de kom.
En: They began to walk through the entire park, retracing the path they had followed since they arrived.

Da: Det blev en spontan skattejagt, fyldt med grin og små stop for at kigge under boder og bænke.
En: It turned into an impromptu treasure hunt, filled with laughter and little stops to look under stalls and benches.

Da: Selv om Jens var bekymret, følte han sig varm indeni af Signes begejstring og vilje til at hjælpe.
En: Even though Jens was worried, he felt warm inside from Signe's excitement and willingness to help.

Da: Da solen begyndte at gå ned, og Tivolis lys tændtes, var de tæt på at give op.

Da: Jens kunne mærke en håbløshed krybe ind.
En: Jens could feel despair creeping in.

Da: "Vi finder det nok...
