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 buillí a chomh glasáit agus a thug sí aghaidh ar a leithéid d’áit ar an gach.En: She felt the vibrant beats as she faced such a place in life.Ga: Ansin, chríochnaigh sí ag smaoineamh.En: Then, she stopped thinking.Ga: Bhí sé in am glacadh le grá.En: It was time to accept love.Ga: "Sea," a dúirt sí le guth ciúin ach daingean.En: "Yes," she said with a quiet but firm voice.Ga: D’eirigh croí Liam le háthas, agus ghlaoigh na tonnta faoi gárda tar trad a leithne.En: Liam's heart soared with joy, and the waves roared in celebration around them.Ga: D’ardaigh sé suas í, ag casadh timpeall leis amuigh faoin ngrian.En: He lifted her up, spinning around under the sun.Ga: Bhí Caoimhe saor óna cuid faitíos, agus bhí grá anseo le fanacht.En: Caoimhe was free from her fears, and love was there to stay.Ga: Bhí an bheirt acu ar thaobh an aill, gafa i ngréasán séimh an ghrá agus den mheanma nua a tháinig chun cairde.En: The two of them were on the edge of the cliff, caught in the gentle web of love and the new spirit that had come to be friends.Ga: Bhí sé i bhfad níos mó ná riamh an ceist a fhiosrú.En: It was much more than merely asking the question.Ga: Bhí siad ag tús dá dtaisteal nua le chéile.En: They were at the beginning of their new journey together.Ga: Bhí an grian ag dul i bhfolach faoi dheireadh, ag tumadh taobh thiar deid na spéire.En: The sun was setting at last, diving below the horizon.Ga: Bhí cloch, ach amháin cloch glas na hÉireann, ar a méar anois, ag gealadh faoi sholas dílis na beatha.En: There was a stone, but only an Irish green stone, now on her finger, glimmering under the faithful light of life.Ga: Bhí éabhas ann.En: There was wonder there.Ga: Bhí sí réidh le glacadh le gach rud nua a bhí ag teacht.En: She was ready to embrace all the new things that were coming.
