En: But he knows that Núria is tired.
Ca: Des de fa dies nota que li falta energia.
En: For days, he has noticed her lack of energy.
Ca: “Núria”, li diu amb preocupació, “potser hauries d'anar al metge”.

Ca: Ella somriu, però aviat cedeix.
En: She smiles but soon gives in.
Ca: És el que toca.

En: The days pass quickly.
Ca: El festival de Sant Jaume és gairebé aquí.
En: The Sant Jaume festival is almost here.
Ca: Sent la pressió de quedar-se enrere.
En: She feels the pressure of falling behind.
Ca: Però el consell del metge i l'amor de Jordi li recorden la importància de cuidar-se.
En: But the doctor's advice and Jordi’s love remind her of the importance of taking care of herself.
Ca: Finalment arriba la vigília de Sant Jaume.
En: Finally, the eve of Sant Jaume arrives.
Ca: La Núria comprèn que ha d'escoltar al seu cos.
En: Núria understands that she must listen to her body.
Ca: “La salut és primer”, li diu el seu cor.
En: "Health comes first," her heart tells her.
Ca: Però llavors té una idea.
En: But then she has an idea.
Ca: Pot convertir aquesta experiència en art.
En: She can turn this experience into art.
Ca: El que ha viscut ha estat dolorós, però també revelador.
En: What she has gone through has been painful, but also revealing.
Ca: Aquella nit treballa ferventment, canalitzant les seves emocions.

Ca: El matí de Sant Jaume, exposa el seu treball en una petita sala d'exhibició.
