Tá an ghrian ag taitneamh go hard sa spéir, agus tá aoibh áthais ar an ngrúpa daltaí scoile a bhfuil a gcosán dírithe ar Aillte an Mhothair.
The sun is shining high in the sky, and there's a joyful expression on the group of schoolchildren whose path is directed towards Aillte an Mhothair.
Le teann allagair, is cosúil go bhfuil rithim an tsamhraidh á stóráil ina gcroíthe acu.
Full of chatter, it seems the rhythm of summer is stored in their hearts.
I measc an ghrúpa tá Aoife, Cian, agus Saoirse.
Among the group are Aoife, Cian, and Saoirse.
Cian, an caibidil na coimhlinte, ag éirí níos gleoite lena gach focal.
Cian, the chapter of conflict, is growing more charming with every word.
Is breá leis an aird, agus bíonn gáire ar gach duine nuair a chuireann sé a sheiftí i bhfeidhm.
He loves the attention, and everyone laughs when he executes his antics.
Ar an taobh eile, tá Saoirse, a bhfuil inti an spiorad eachtrúil, toilteanach dul chuig na háiteanna is neamhchoitianta.
On the other hand, there is Saoirse, who embodies the adventurous spirit, eager to venture to the most unusual places.
Ach tá Aoife difriúil.
But Aoife is different.
Tá taibhsí ciúine aici sa chroí a cuid smaointe.
She harbors quiet ghosts in the heart of her thoughts.
Tá sé de mhian aici teacht ar muinín agus cuimhní a bhíonn fíor dá cuid féin.
She desires to find confidence and memories that are truly her own.
Nuair a dhéanann Cian gáire beoga ar joke eile, agus a théann Saoirse ag rith i dtreo an fhácais eile de na haillte, mothaíonn Aoife í féin faoi scáth a gcairde.
When Cian bursts into vibrant laughter over another joke, and Saoirse runs towards another edge of the cliffs, Aoife feels herself under the shadow of her friends.
Stopann sí ar imeall an chosáin agus cuireann a troid inmheánach i bhfocail, "Cian, Saoirse, ba bhreá liom dul ar bhealach eile.
She stops at the edge of the path and puts her internal struggle into words, "Cian, Saoirse, I’d love to go another way.
Tá áit súilíneach anseo a d’fhéadfadh a bheith spéisiúil.
There’s a sparkling place here that could be interesting."
" Tosaíonn Cian ag cáineadh, neamhchinnte faoi an dhúshlán nua seo, agus cuireann Saoirse mothú dána i dtreo an dúshláin nua roimhe seo.
Cian begins to protest, uncertain about this new challenge, and Saoirse senses a daring feeling towards the new challenge ahead.
Ach, inniu, tá Aoife láidir.
But today, Aoife is strong.
"An féidir libh fanacht liom?
"Can you stay with me?"
" a deireann sí, chun í féin agus a hintinn bheith mar stiúrthóir.
she says, aiming to be the director of herself and her mind.
I ndiaidh nóiméid geal-ghníomh ach misniúil, toilíonn siad sa deireadh.
After a bright but bold moment, they finally agree.
Téann an triúr dílis ar shlí nua, chuig dúlra taisce.
The loyal trio sets off on a new path, towards the treasure of nature.
Ar aon dul leis na cúpla céimeanna, faigheann siad nead faoi rún, áit socair le radharc alltachtach os cionn na tuile.
In step with a few strides, they discover a hidden nest, a peaceful spot with an awe-inspiring view over the tide.
Tá ciúnas ann, ach ní ciúnas folamh é.
There is silence, but it isn't an empty silence.
Tá sé lán le tuiscint agus aontacht.
It is filled with understanding and unity.
Féachann siad amach, le tuiscint nua ag líonadh a gcroíthe.
They look out, with a new understanding filling their hearts.
Aimsíonn Aoife go bhfuil guth aici.
Aoife discovers she has a voice.
Tá sí ceart go leor, fiú amháin i dteannta na gcluichí seasta agus na heachtraí neamhpleannáilte.
She is okay, even amidst the familiar games and unplanned adventures.
Agus faoi dhrong na haillte, foghlaimíonn a cairde luach stad, chun cothrom, analuach, a fháil ann.
And beneath the grandeur of the cliffs, her friends learn the value of stopping, to find an equal, enriching experience within.
An gníomh á bhreathnú ag an nGrian thuas, scaiptear scéal Aillte an Mhothair go síoraí idir an triúr a gcreideann le chéile.
As the action is observed by the Sun above, the story of Aillte an Mhothair is eternally shared among the three who believe together.
Agus anois, bíonn Aoife feasach gur aimsíodh í féin, agus go bhfuil an turas ina cuid dá dhéanamh anois.
And now, Aoife is aware that she has found herself, and the journey is part of her becoming now.
