Story Transcript:
Ga: Bhí maidin álainn sa Samhradh i mBaile Átha Cliath.
En: It was a beautiful summer morning in Baile Átha Cliath.
Ga: Bhí an ghrian ag taitneamh go geal, agus St. Stephen's Green lán le saol agus beocht.
En: The sun was shining brightly, and St. Stephen's Green was full of life and vibrancy.
Ga: Bhí cuairteoirí ag siúl thart, ag baint taitnimh as an aer úr agus an fástas bláthanna ildaite.
En: Visitors were walking around, enjoying the fresh air and the colorful flowering growth.
Ga: I measc na ndaoine sin, bhí Aisling.
En: Among those people was Aisling.
Ga: Aisling, cé go raibh sí díreach fillte abhaile go Baile Átha Cliath ó chathair eile, mothaigh sí go raibh seans ann go mbeadh tús nua aici.
En: Aisling, even though she had just returned to Baile Átha Cliath from another city, felt that there was a chance for a new beginning.
Ga: Bhí sí gnóthach ina post, ach anois bhí Maeve, cara iontach, ag impí uirthi an lá a ghlacadh le haghaidh í féin.
En: She had been busy with her job, but now Maeve, a wonderful friend, was urging her to take the day for herself.
Ga: Mar sin, roghnaigh Aisling dul ag rith ar maidin.
En: So, Aisling chose to go for a morning run.
Ga: Bhí Declan ina shuí ar bhinse, peann luaidhe ina lámh, ag tarraingt.
En: Declan was sitting on a bench, pencil in his hand, drawing.
Ga: Bhí an pháirc mar a suíomh grá chomh maith le muir mar rud eile.
En: The park served as his love setting as well as the sea in other instances.
Ga: Áit chluthar, áit a d'fhéadfadh a shamhlaíocht éirí mór.
En: A cozy place, where his imagination could grow large.
Ga: Bhí an pháirc ag tabhairt inspioráide dó arís.
En: The park was inspiring him once again.
Ga: Chonaic sé í.
En: He saw her.
Ga: Aisling, ag síneadh a cosa ar an bhféar, scíth a ligean tar éis rith fada.
En: Aisling, stretching her legs on the grass, relaxing after a long run.
Ga: Bhí rud éigin faoi.
En: There was something about her.
Ga: Bhí sí taitneamhach agus cosúil le carachtar a theastaigh uaidh a ghabháil ar pháipéar.
En: She was delightful and like a character he wanted to capture on paper.
Ga: Thosaigh sé ag tarraingt í, súil ina shúile ar chaoi a raibh sí ag glacadh le bheith sa láthair.
En: He started drawing her, his eyes focused on how she was embracing being present in the moment.
Ga: Nuair a thug sí faoi deara é, chuir sé cúthail uirthi ar dtús, ach ansin d’fhéach sí níos gaire.
En: When she noticed him, it made her shy at first, but then she looked closer.
Ga: Thug sí faoi deara a spéis chneasta, agus shocraigh sí dul i gcomhrá leis.
En: She noticed his kind interest, and decided to engage in conversation.
Ga: "An gceapann tú go bhfuil mé chomh suimiúil sin?" a dúirt sí ag gáire.
En: "Do you think I'm that interesting?" she said with a laugh.
Ga: Chuir Declan a peann síos agus d'fhreagair sé, "Ní raibh a fhios agam go dtabharfainn féin faoi seo, ach tá an saol lán de eachtraí cosúil leis seo, nach bhfuil?"
En: Declan put his pencil down and answered, "I didn't know I would find myself doing this, but life is full of adventures like this, isn't it?"
Ga: Thosaigh comhrá i ngan-fhios dóibh, simplí ach domhain.
En: A conversation began unconsciously, simple yet deep.
Ga: Labhair siad faoi ealaín, nádúr, agus na rudaí is fearr leo sa chathair.
En: They talked about art, nature, and their favorite things in the city.
Ga: Cuimhne buan a bhí ann dóibh beirt.
En: It was a lasting memory for both of them.
Ga: Chinn Aisling, cé go raibh sí gnóthach, gurbh fhiú an cairdeas nua seo a chothú.
En: Aisling decided, even though she was busy, that this new friendship was worth nurturing.
Ga: Mar a scaip an samhradh tríd an gcathair, tháinig Aisling ar ais go minic chuig an bpáirc.
En: As the summer spread through the city, Aisling frequently returned to the park.
Ga: Rinne sí féin agus Declan coinne chun caife a ól agus scéalta a roinnt.
En: She and Declan made plans to have coffee and share stories.
Ga: Bhí aithne níos doimhne ag teacht eatarthu.
En: They were getting to know each other more deeply.
Ga: Thosaigh sí ag déanamh bailchríoch ar a gean do dhaoine, áit nár shíl sí riamh go mbainfeadh sí amach.
En: She began to finish cultivating her affection for people, a place she never thought she would reach.
Ga: Le himeacht ama, d'fhoghlaim Aisling conas a cuid ama a roinnt idir an saol gairmiúil agus an sásamh pearsanta a fuair sí leis.
En: With time, Aisling learned how to balance her time between her professional life and the personal satisfaction she found in it.
Ga: Bhí sé ag teacht go nádúrtha anois.
En: It was coming naturally now.
Ga: Bhí sí ábalta a bheith ag obair go dícheallach ach ag an am céanna ag sult as cairde nua agus b'fhéidir grá sa St. Stephen's Green, áit a bhí sí ag iarraidh rud éigin níos mó a fháil i gcónaí.
En: She was able to work diligently while at the same time enjoying new friends and perhaps love in St. Stephen's Green, a place where she was always seeking something more.
Ga: Agus mar sin, leanann a scéal, lonnaithe sna huaireanta geala sin a thóg Aisling le Declan, líonta le pléisiúr simplí an tsaoil sin.
En: And so, her story continues, rooted in those bright hours Aisling spent with Declan, filled with the simple pleasures of that life.
Ga: Tá saol comhtháite á fháil aici, idir a bheith rathúil ina slí bheatha agus a grá saibhir do dhaoine agus don dúlra.
En: She is finding an integrated life, between being successful in her career and her rich love for people and nature.
