Story Transcript:

Ga: Lárchathair é Eanach an Dúlra, áit lán le clúdaigh crann móra, plandaí glasa, agus taispeántais bheo i ngach áit.
En: Eanach an Dúlra is a central city, a place full of tall tree canopies, green plants, and living exhibits everywhere.

Ga: Bhí Aoife, Cormac, agus Siobhán i measc na scoláirí a bhí ag dúil go mór leis an turas scoile seo.
En: Aoife, Cormac, and Siobhán were among the students eagerly looking forward to this school trip.

Ga: I dtréimhse Fómhar, bhí dathanna na gcrann iontach ar fad.
En: During the autumn period, the color of the trees was phenomenal.

Ga: Bhí Aoife spreagtha, áfach, bhí rud éigin speisialta uaithi a thaispeáint dá cairde.
En: Aoife was excited, however, she had something special she wanted to show her friends.

Ga: Bhí Aoife ag súil leis an lae seo le seachtainí.
En: Aoife had been looking forward to this day for weeks.

Ga: Cé go raibh sí ar bís, bhí imní uirthi freisin.
En: Although she was excited, she was also nervous.

Ga: Níor mhothaigh sí minic go raibh muinín ag a cairde inti mar threoraí.
En: She didn't often feel that her friends had confidence in her as a guide.

Ga: "Inniu, beidh sé difriúil," a dúirt sí léi féin go ciúin.
En: "Today, it will be different," she quietly told herself.

Ga: Nuair a tháinig na scoláirí ar fad isteach san Eanach, thosaigh Cormac ag tabhairt treoir.
En: When all the students entered the Eanach, Cormac began giving directions.

Ga: "Seo dúinn, a chairde, an áit nua seo!
En: "Here we are, friends, this new place!"

Ga: " a ghlaoigh sé, á mhúscailt suim chomh maith le neart gáire.
En: he shouted, sparking interest as well as plenty of laughter.

Ga: Ach bhí rún i gceist ag Aoife.
En: But Aoife had a secret in mind.

Ga: "Téanaimis an treo sin," a mhol Aoife, ag pointeáil go crann míchlúiteach.
En: "Let's go that way," suggested Aoife, pointing toward an unremarkable tree.

Ga: Bhí Cormac agus Siobhán míshásta ar dtús.
En: Cormac and Siobhán were initially dissatisfied.

Ga: "An bhfuil tú cinnte, Aoife?
En: "Are you sure, Aoife?"

Ga: " a d'fhiafraigh Siobhán, a rug ar lámh Aoife go cáiréiseach.
En: Siobhán asked, cautiously grabbing Aoife's hand.

Ga: Ach d'fhan Aoife dearfach.
En: But Aoife remained positive.

Ga: Bhí an bóthar sách caolchúiseach, beagnach caillte faoi bhrat duille, ach d'oibrigh Aoife a bealach ar aghaidh go misniúil.
En: The path was fairly narrow, almost lost under a blanket of leaves, but Aoife confidently made her way forward.

Ga: Ar deireadh, shroich siad áit bheag i bhfolach.
En: Eventually, they reached a small hidden spot.

Ga: Bhí a súile lán le h-iontas agus iad ag féachaint ar an zúnna ildaite a bhí ag mealladh faoin bhfásra.
En: Their eyes were full of wonder as they watched the colorful ferns that were charming beneath the foliage.

Ga: "Nár thaispeáin mé daoibh?
En: "Didn't I tell you?"

Ga: " a dúirt Aoife go bródúil, a cúram gluaiseachta ag dul thar barr.
En: said Aoife proudly, her handling of the situation was exceptional.

Ga: Bhí Cormac agus Siobhán gan urlabhra ar feadh nóiméid, ach ansin a rith siad amach, "Tá sé dochreidte, Aoife!
En: Cormac and Siobhán were speechless for a moment, but then they exclaimed, "It's unbelievable, Aoife!

Ga: Tá súil speisialta agat.
En: You have a special e
