POTTER: Mum?

              Dad?

              Ron, you've really gotta see this! Ron, you've gotta see this!

              Ron, come on, get out of bed!

WEASLEY: Why?

POTTER: There's something you've got to see!

              Come on! Come! Come look, it's my parents!

WEASLEY: I only see us.

POTTER: Look in properly. Go on, stand there.

              There. You see them, don't you?

WEASLEY: That's me! Only I'm head boy.

                  And I'm holding the Quidditch Cup.

                  And bloody hell! I'm Quidditch captain too!

                  I look good.

                  Harry, do you think this mirror shows the future?

POTTER: How can it? Both my parents are dead.

DUMBLEDORE: Back again, Harry?

                           I see that you, like many before you ...

                           ... have discovered the delights of the Mirror of Erised.

                           I trust by now you realize what it does.

                           Let me give you a clue.

                           The happiest man on earth ...

                           ... would look in the mirror and see only himself ...

                           ... exactly as he is.

POTTER: So then, it shows us what we want. Whatever we want.

DUMBLEDORE: Yes. And no.

                           It shows us nothing more or less ...

                           ... than the deepest and most desperate desires of our hearts.

                           Now you, Harry, who have never known your family ...

                           ... you see them standing beside you.

                           But remember this, Harry.

                           This mirror gives us neither knowledge ...

                           ... or truth.

                           Men have wasted away in front of it. Even gone mad.

                           That is why tomorrow it will be moved to a new home.

                           And I must ask you ...

                           ... not to go looking for it again.

                           It does not do to dwell on dreams ...

                           ... and forget to live.



Mum? (Mami?)
Dad? (Oči?)
Ron, you've really gotta see this! Ron, you've gotta see this! (To moraš videti! Ron, to moraš videti!)
Ron, come on, get out of bed! (Vstani!)
Why? (Zakaj?)
There's something you've got to see! (Nekaj moraš videti.)
Come on! Come! Come look, it's my parents! (Poglej, moja starša sta!)
I only see us. (Samo naju vidim.)
Look in properly. Go on, stand there. (Prav moraš pogledati. Tja se postavi.)
There. You see them, don't you? (Vidiš ju, ne?)
That's me! Only I'm head boy. (To sem jaz! Predsednik sveta učencev sem.)
And I'm holding the Quidditch Cup. (V rokah imam pokal quidditcha.)
And bloody hell! I'm Quidditch captain too! (Hudiča, tudi kapetan moštva sem.)
I look good. (Dobro zgledam.)
Harry, do you think this mirror shows the future? (Misliš, da kaže prihodnost?)
How can it? Both my parents are dead. (Kako? Oba moja starša sta mrtva.)
Back again, Harry? (Si spet tu?)
I see that you, like many before you ... (Kot toliko ljudi pred tabo)
... have discovered the delights of the Mirror of Erised. (si odkril radosti zrcala Ajneneperh.)
I trust by now you realize what it does. (Zdaj si najbrž že ugotovil, kaj kaže.)
Let me give you a clue. (Naj ti pomagam.)
The happiest man on earth ... (Najsrečnejši človek na svetu)
... would look in the mirror and see only himself ... (bi v tem zrcalu videl samo sebe,)
... exactly as he is. (takšnega, kot je.)
So then, it shows us what we want. Whatever we want. (Nam pokaže, kar hočemo? Karkoli hočemo?)
Yes. And no. (Ja in ne.)
It shows us nothing more or less ... (Pokaže nam nič manj in nič več)
... than the deepest and most desperate desires of our hearts. (kot najgloblja, najbolj obupana hrepenenja našega srca.)
Now you, Harry, who have never known your family ... (Ti, ki nisi poznal svoje družine,)
... you see them standing beside you. (jo vidiš, kako stoji ob tebi.)
But remember this, Harry. (Ampak zapomni si, to zrcalo)
This mirror gives us neither knowledge ... (nam ne da niti znanja)
... or truth. (niti resnice.)
Men have wasted away in front of it. Even gone mad. (Mnogi so pred njim propadli. Celo znoreli.)
That is why tomorrow it will be moved to a new home. (Zato ga bomo jutri prenesli drugam)
And I must ask you ... (in prosim te,)
... not to go looking for it again. (da ga ne iščeš več.)
It does not do to dwell on dreams ... (Ni se pametno predati sanjam)
... and forget to live. (in pozabiti živeti.)
