Story Transcript:
Ga: Bhí an ghrian ag taitneamh go glórmhar thar Aillte an Mhothair.
En: The sun was shining gloriously over the Aillte an Mhothair.
Ga: Bhí na tonnta ag briseadh i gcoinne na gcarraigeacha thíos.
En: The waves were breaking against the rocks below.
Ga: Bhí bolt fionnadh na farraige ag bualadh le ciumhais na habhann.
En: The sea's white spray was hitting the edge of the river.
Ga: Bhí Caoimhe, Liam, agus Siobhán ag siúl ar bhruach na n-aillte, á n-ionadh ag áilleacht an nádúir.
En: Caoimhe, Liam, and Siobhán were walking along the cliff edge, marveling at the beauty of nature.
Ga: Bhí Caoimhe eolach ar na háiteanna seo, áfach, agus é mór lena croí i gcónaí.
En: Caoimhe was familiar with these places, and they were dear to her heart always.
Ga: D’fhéach sí ar an bhfarraige faoi dearaí agus d’airigh sí an ghaoth ag sciorradh trína gruaig.
En: She looked out at the sea thoughtfully and felt the wind skimming through her hair.
Ga: Bhí sé cosúil le aisling.
En: It was like a dream.
Ga: Ach fiú sa rogha áilleachta seo bhí sí buartha, mar bhí rud éigin ar intinn Liam.
En: But even in this beauty, she was worried, as something was on Liam's mind.
Ga: Bhí an t-am ag teacht.
En: The time had come.
Ga: D’iompaigh Liam go mall i dtreo Caoimhe, an ghrian ag soilsiú ar a aghaidh, agus caidreamh ina shúile.
En: Liam turned slowly towards Caoimhe, the sun illuminating his face, and emotion in his eyes.
Ga: "Caoimhe," a dúirt sé go ciúin, "ba mhaith liom mo shaol a chaitheamh leat.
En: "Caoimhe," he said quietly, "I want to spend my life with you."
Ga: "Chlaon sé síos ar ghlúin amháin.
En: He bent down on one knee.
Ga: Bhí na focail sin an-trom i gcluasanna Caoimhe.
En: Those words rang heavy in Caoimhe's ears.
Ga: Bhí an fáinne i lámh Liam, ag lasadh faoin ngréin.
En: The ring was in Liam's hand, glinting in the sun.
Ga: Ní raibh na focail is follasaí ar an domhan ar a béal, ach ina hintinn féin, bhí coinbhleacht an eolais á hathrá aici.
En: The most obvious words in the world weren't on her lips, but in her mind, she was repeating the conflict of knowledge.
Ga: Bhí a lán grá aici do Liam, ach bhí eagla á cur aici.
En: She had a lot of love for Liam, but fear was looming.
Ga: Bhí sí ag smaoineamh ar an am a chaill duine muinteartha uirthi.
En: She thought of the time she lost a loved one.
Ga: Bhí sí ag smaoineamh ar an bpian a d’fhéadfadh teacht má theip ar an gcaidreamh.
En: She thought of the pain that could come if the relationship failed.
Ga: Ach feictear go raibh rud éigin ag athrú ag athrú ag an nóiméad sin.
En: But something seemed to change in that moment.
Ga: Bhí sé ró-álainn.
En: It was too beautiful.
Ga: Bhí sé fíor.
En: It was real.
Ga: Bhí Siobhán ag faire amach ó chúlbhúith ag tógáil an nóiméad san anamnacha, gan cor ar bith as a haon uaidh.
En: Siobhán was watching from a distance, capturing the moment in her memories, without a single movement to disrupt.
Ga: Bhí sí ar bís don cúple.
En: She was excited for the couple.
Ga: D’fhéach Caoimhe isteach i súile Liam.
En: Caoimhe looked into Liam's eyes.
Ga: Bhí an t-am ann.
En: The time had come.
Ga: Bhí eagla, ach bhí gean ann freisin.
En: There was fear, but there was affection as well.
Ga: D’airigh sí na buill
