- Bhí sé lá geal geimhridh i dtuaisceart na hÉireann, an chéad lá tar éis na saoire. - It was a bright winter day in the north of Éire, the first day after the holiday. 
- Bhí Saoirse ag siúl trí shiopa an-aisteach i ngar do Newgrange, suíomh ársa céimiúil. - Saoirse was walking through a very strange shop near Newgrange, a famous ancient site. 
- Bhí an siopa lán de rudaí iontacha agus sean-rear. - The shop was full of wonderful things and ancient curiosities. 
- Bhí phearsa Saoirse lán de thóir eachtraíochta agus cuimhní cinn d'Éirinn. - Saoirse's character was full of a pursuit for adventure and memories of Éirinn. 
- Bhí sí ag lorg seod Ceilteach annamh nár scaip a seanmháthair de. - She was searching for a rare Celtic jewel that her grandmother didn't distribute. 
- Ag an am céanna, bhí Eamon ag siúl isteach sa siopa céanna. - At the same time, Eamon was walking into the same shop. 
- Fear machnamhach ab ea Eamon, a raibh cineáltas pearsanta leis agus grá mhór do scéalta staire. - Eamon was a thoughtful man with a personal kindness and a great love for historical stories. 
- Bhí sé ag iarraidh fáil amach faoin gcnuasach is déanaí de shean-rudaí, nuair a chonaic sé Saoirse. - He was trying to find out about the latest collection of ancient items when he saw Saoirse. 
- Thug iontas orthu beirt ag an gcúldor. - They were both surprised at the back door. 
- "Nach é seo Saoirse?" a dúirt sé i guth ardánach. - "Isn't this Saoirse?" he said in an elevated voice. 
- Rinne Saoirse gáire. "Eamon! Níor smaoinigh mé ar tú a fheiceáil anseo!" Thosaigh siad ag comhrá, ag comóradh na mblianta a caitheadh. - Saoirse laughed. "Eamon! I didn't expect to see you here!" They started talking, reminiscing about the years that had passed. 
- Fuair Saoirse amach go raibh scil ag Eamon i rudaí seaniarlaí, mar bhí sé eolach ar an domhan seo. - Saoirse discovered that Eamon had a skill for ancient items, as he was knowledgeable about this world. 
- D'inis sí faoi thóir a seanmháthar agus an t-ársa gCeilteach sin. - She told him about her grandmother's quest and that ancient Celtic treasure. 
- Bhí an t-eolas ag Eamon go raibh an t-earra seo mar chuid de bhailiúchán príobháideach nach raibh i gceist a dhíoladh. - Eamon knew that this item was part of a private collection that wasn't for sale. 
- "Ach tá foinsí agam," a dúirt Eamon, "B'fhéidir gur féidir linn rud éigin a bhreacadh léi." - "But I have sources," Eamon said, "Maybe we can arrange something with them." 
- Bhí sé in ann nasc a dhéanamh leo siúd i mbun an bhailiúchán. - He was able to make a connection with those managing the collection. 
- Agus thug sé cuireadh do Saoirse dul go Newgrange in éineacht leis, áit a raibh taispeántas speisialta ar siúl le linn imeacht áirithe. - He invited Saoirse to go to Newgrange with him, where a special exhibition was taking place during a certain event. 
- Ag Newgrange, bhí an lá soléite le bolg solais speisialta geimhridh. - At Newgrange, the day was illuminated with a special winter light. 
- Rinne an solas a bhealach idir na clocha ársa, ag tabhairt radharc draíochta don doimhneacht istigh. - The light made its way between the ancient stones, giving a magical view to the inner depths. 
- Tharla gur cuireadh an tseoid amach roimh na daoine. - It happened that the jewel was brought out before the people. 
- D'fhéach Saoirse ar Eamon. "Caithfimid iarracht a dhéanamh in ann na sean-scéalta atá ag mothú anseo le Sinn Féin a dhíol." - Saoirse looked at Eamon. "We must try to be able to sell the ancient stories that can be felt here with their own meaning." 
- Tar éis labhairt le húinéir an bhailiúcháin, fuair said am leis an seod. - After speaking with the owner of the collection, they were given time with the jewel. 
- Ní raibh Saoirse in ann a chreidiúint. - Saoirse couldn't believe it. 
- Chuir siad seansaide go huile bonn le bonn. - They carefully examined the ancient artifact from top to bottom. 
- Ba mhór an amhrach a bhí ag an t-uafás seo acu araon. - The encounter left a significant impression on both of them. 
- Ní amháin go raibh Saoirse níos cóngaraí dá stair teaghlaigh; d'fhoghlaim sí freisin go raibh an fíorchiste nú nach raibh i gceist an t-seod féin, ach na scéalta chomhroinnte agus na nascanna a chruthaigh siad faoina n-oidhreacht. - Not only was Saoirse closer to her family history; she also learned that the true treasure wasn't the jewel itself, but the shared stories and the connections they created about their heritage. 
- Nuair a bhí an solas ag crapadh agus an ghrian ag dul faoi, d'fhág Saoirse agus Eamon Newgrange le croíthe teolaí, tuiscint nua agus meas nua ar an am atá caite. - As the light dwindled and the sun set, Saoirse and Eamon left Newgrange with warm hearts, a new understanding, and a fresh appreciation for the past. 
- Bhí croí Saoirse luchtaithe le scéalta, ní amháin mar gheall ar an seoid, ach mar gheall ullmhú an turais féin. - Saoirse's heart was filled with stories, not just because of the jewel, but because of the journey itself.
