Ga: Shuigh siad thart ar thine mhór, ag roinnt scéalta agus ag gáire go geal.
En: They sat around a big fire, sharing stories and laughing heartily.
Ga: Thosaigh seanfhear amháin, Séamus, ag insint scéil iontach.
En: An old man, Séamus, started telling an amazing story.

Ga: I lár an tráthnóna, chuaigh na daoine ag siúl timpeall na n-aillean.
En: In the middle of the afternoon, the people went for a walk around the cliffs.
Ga: Thaispeáin Niamh seana-bhiaís tréad an bhóthair dóibh.
En: Niamh showed them ancient cattle paths.
Ga: Bhí na carraigeacha dorcha ach bhí beanna airgid orthu mar gheall ar an ghrian.
En: The rocks were dark but had silver peaks because of the sun.
Ga: Bhí an tírdhreach cosúil le rud éigin as finscéal aoibhinn.

Ga: Bhí gach duine tógtha le scéal Niamh.
En: Everyone was taken with Niamh's story.
Ga: Ag deireadh an tráthnóna, d'fhógair Séamus buaiteoir an chomórtais.
En: At the end of the evening, Séamus announced the winner of the contest.
Ga: Bhí iontas ar Niamh nuair a chuala sí a hainm á ghlaoch.
En: Niamh was surprised when she heard her name being called.
Ga: Tháinig an clann go léir chuici agus chuir siad abhráin bhreátha i seana-fhillteáin ar aulgairí mo rudaigh.
En: The entire family came to her and put beautiful songs in old scrolls around her shoulders.
Ga: Bhí Niamh agus Cormac sona sásta.
En: Niamh and Cormac were very happy.
Ga: Ghabh siad buíochas lena gcuid gaolta.
En: They thanked their relatives.

En: They were full of pride in their heritage and family.
Ga: Ar an mbealach abhaile, chonaic siad an ghrian ag luí.
En: On the way home, they saw the sun setting.
Ga: Bhí sé deas cineáil.
En: It was quite beautiful.
Ga: Bhí a fhios acu go raibh anam a ngaoil fós á choimeád beo acu.
En: They knew that the soul of their ancestors was still being kept alive in them.
Ga: Bhí féile mór críochnaithe, ach bhí cairdeas agus cuimhní cinn faoi chomaoin.
