Story Transcript:

Ga: Bhí na haillte ag gleo leis na tonnta, a bhí ag briseadh go fiáin faoin smúit geimhridh.
En: The cliffs roared with the waves, crashing wildly under the winter mist.

Ga: Le gaoith fhuar ag séideadh orthu, shiúil Caoimhe, Eoghan, agus Niamh feadh na gCliffs of Moher, ag taisteal le chéile ar saoire a cheap siad a bheadh lán solais agus gáire.
En: With a cold wind blowing over them, Caoimhe, Eoghan, and Niamh walked along the Cliffs of Moher, traveling together on a vacation they thought would be full of sunshine and laughter.

Ga: Bhí Caoimhe ag breathnú amach thar an imeall.
En: Caoimhe was looking out over the edge.

Ga: Bhí rud éigin i ndiaidh titim isteach in aigne na bliana seo.
En: Something had fallen into her mind that year.

Ga: D’airigh sí uaigneas agus féithín bróin nach rabhamar ag súil léi.
En: She felt a loneliness and a trace of sadness she hadn't expected.

Ga: Ba mhaith léi ealú ón imní ina hintinn.
En: She wanted to escape the anxiety in her mind.

Ga: Bhí sí diongbháilte consólíocht a thabhairt.
En: She was determined to find solace.

Ga: Bhí fonn uirthi teacht ar a cuid cairde a bhí sa dorchadas.
En: She was eager to find her friends who were in darkness.

Ga: Fear cirt ab ea Eoghan.
En: Eoghan was a man of principle.

Ga: D'airigh sé i gcónaí go dteastaigh uathu díriú ar rudaí tábhachtacha.
En: He always felt they needed to focus on important things.

Ga: I rith an turais, d’airigh sé go raibh a mhothúcháin do Niamh níos mó ná barúil.
En: During the trip, he realized his feelings for Niamh were more than just admiration.

Ga: Ach, níor chuir sé in iúl di fós.
En: Yet, he hadn't expressed them to her yet.

Ga: Bhí sé dírithe ar an aimsir, toisc go raibh an aimsir amuigh scanrúil.
En: He was focused on the weather because it was terrifying outside.

Ga: Ag léim suas aníos go himill na haillte, ghlaoigh Niamh go bríomhar: "A chairde, ná bíodh imní oraibh!
En: Leaping up to the edge of the cliffs, Niamh called out spiritedly: "Friends, don't worry!

Ga: Táimid chomh sábháilte anseo agus a bhíonn muid ag siopadóireacht sa bhaile!
En: We're as safe here as when we're shopping at home!"

Ga: " Níorbh fhada go mhothaigh Niamh gur fhág rud éigin folús ina croí.
En: It wasn't long before Niamh felt something had left a void in her heart.

Ga: Bhí rún aici a bhí aici féin a réiteach, ach bhí a fhios aici go gcaithfeadh sí dul i bhfolach fós.
En: She had a secret she needed to resolve, but she knew she still had to hide.

Ga: Níorbh fhada ina dhiaidh sin gur thug Caoimhe faoi deara nach raibh duine den ghrúpa ann.
En: Shortly afterward, Caoimhe noticed someone was missing from the group.

Ga: "Cá bhfuil Niamh?
En: "Where's Niamh?"

Ga: " a mhachnaigh sí os ard.
En: she pondered aloud.

Ga: D’fhéach Eoghan timpeall go tapaidh, léim croíbhriste ina bhroinn.
En: Eoghan looked around quickly, a pang of anxiety in his chest.

Ga: Bhí rud éigin as alt.
En: Something was amiss.

Ga: Ba chóir do gach duine a bheith anseo.
En: Everyone should have been there.

Ga: Chinn Caoimhe, faoi dhianbhrú mistéire, scartha ón ngrúpa chun an cosán atá naire di a leanúint.
En: Caoimhe decided, under great pressure and mystery, to separate from the group to follow the path that troubled her.

Ga: Maoin ó Dhia,...
