Story Transcript:
Ga: Saoirse is sa lár den choill thapa sa bhliain.
En: Saoirse was in the heart of the quick forest in the year.
Ga: Bhí an ghrian ag taitneamh trí chraobh na gcrann, ag cruthú scáthanna beag ar an talamh.
En: The sun was shining through the tree branches, creating small shadows on the ground.
Ga: Bhí Saoirse, múinteoir aimsire, ag tabhairt turas do ghrúpa cuairteoirí.
En: Saoirse, a weather teacher, was giving a tour to a group of visitors.
Ga: Bhí sí ag glacadh brí na háite ar chách.
En: She was absorbing the essence of the place for everyone.
Ga: Ach, sa grúpa bhí Cormac, fear óg a raibh imní air.
En: But, in the group was Cormac, a young man who was anxious.
Ga: Bhí a dheartháir óg, Aidan, imithe gan tásc gan tuairisc.
En: His younger brother, Aidan, had disappeared without a trace.
Ga: Bhí an turas ag teacht chun deiridh, ach ní raibh aon rian d'Aidan.
En: The tour was coming to an end, but there was no sign of Aidan.
Ga: “Cá bhféadfadh sé a bheith?” arsa Cormac, éadach lena imní.
En: “Where could he be?” said Cormac, distraught with worry.
Ga: “Caithfidh muid é a fháil,” d'fhreagair Saoirse go muiníneach.
En: “We must find him,” replied Saoirse confidently.
Ga: Bhí sí díochrach an fhadhb seo a réiteach, ní amháin do Chormac, ach chun a spéis i stair an tsuíomh a chruthú.
En: She was determined to solve this problem, not only for Cormac, but to demonstrate her interest in the site's history.
Ga: Chuamar thar an Abhainn Doiléir, trí na fothracha ársa go dtí an Foraois Tiarna.
En: We went past the Abhainn Doiléir (Dim River), through ancient ruins to the Foraois Tiarna (Lord's Forest).
Ga: Tá scéalta ann faoi chianta caillte agus cros bhealaigh rúnda.
En: There are stories there about lost ages and secret crossroads.
Ga: D'éirigh an cruthúnas den dísos ag dul níos faide sa dorcha.
En: The evidence of the duo going farther into the dark grew.
Ga: Tháinig an oíche, agus n'fheadar Saoirse ar chóir di leanúint.
En: Night fell, and Saoirse wondered if she should continue.
Ga: Ach tháinig áis oibre, eolas maith uirthi.
En: But resources, known to her, arrived.
Ga: “Má tá an ráfla fíor, beidh seomra faoi thalamh anseo.”
En: “If the rumor is true, there will be an underground room here.”
Ga: Bhí Cormac buartha, ach bhí creideamh aige i Saoirse.
En: Cormac was worried, but he had faith in Saoirse.
Ga: Chuaigh siad isteach sa choill domhain, áit a raibh doras a bhí clúdaithe le duilliúr tiubh.
En: They went into the deep forest, where a door was covered with thick foliage.
Ga: “Seo é!” arsa Saoirse go sceitimíneach.
En: “This is it!” said Saoirse excitedly.
Ga: Leon sí go gairid é, agus d'oscail bealach chuig an seomra faoi thalamh.
En: She uncovered it shortly, and a passage to the underground room opened.
Ga: Is beag é Kitty atá buile nó mearbhall air.
En: Little was Kitty confused or bewildered.
Ga: Bhreathnaigh sé timpeall, dearmadta ar an domhan os a chionn.
En: He looked around, forgetting the world above him.
Ga: “Fuair muid é!” arsa Cormac go faoiseamh.
En: “We found him!” said Cormac with relief.
Ga: “Buíochas le Dia!”
En: “Thank God!”
Ga: Le hAidan sábháilte, thóg Saoirse agus Cormac an cosán ar ais.
En: With Aidan safe, Saoirse and Cormac took the path back.
Ga:
