Lá amháin, bhí Eoin, mac léinn fiosrach, ag súil tríd na pasáistí dorcha de Bhord Scoil Sheanahbhaile.

One day, Eoin, a curious student, was walking through the dark corridors of Bord Scoil Sheanahbhaile.

Bhí seanfhuinneoga le snáth clúdaithe i nduilleoga glas.

The old windows were covered in green leaves.

Bhí an foirgneamh sean, ach lán le scéalta rúnda.

The building was old but full of secret stories.

Bhí rud amháin ag Eoin a spreagadh níos mó ná rud ar bith eile – an seomra mistéireach san áiléar.

One thing inspired Eoin more than anything else – the mysterious room in the attic.

Nuair a bhí deireadh leis an rang, chuaigh sé suas chuig an áiléar folamh.

When the class finished, he went up to the empty attic.

Bhí sé lán le seanrudaí atá le húsáid fágtha.

It was full of old things left unused.

Agus ina lár, bhí doras.

And in the middle, there was a door.

Doras glas le glas mór nua air.

A green door with a large new lock on it.

Ní raibh an seomra sin ar léarscáil ar bith den scoil.

That room wasn't on any map of the school.

Bhí rún faoi cheilt ann.

There was a secret hidden there.

Bhí Eoin ag iarraidh fáil amach an raibh seans aige rún a aimsiú.

Eoin wanted to find out if he had a chance to discover a secret.

Bhí sé ag smaoineamh ar thaisce nó rún ón mbunaitheoir.

He was thinking of a treasure or a secret from the founder.

Ach bhí ceann an scoile, an Máistir Gallagher, an-dian.

But the head of the school, an Máistir Gallagher, was very strict.

Chuir sé cosc ar mhic léinn taisteal seomraí nach raibh cead isteach sna seomraí sin.

He forbade students to enter rooms that were off-limits.

Bhí eagla ar Eoin go ngabhfadh Máistir Gallagher é.

Eoin was afraid that Máistir Gallagher would catch him.

Ach bhí sé ag súil chun gníomh.

But he was eager to act.

Bhí plean aige.

He had a plan.

Bheadh cabhair uaidh.

He needed help.

Bhí Aoife agus Finn, a chairde dílis, ar an eolas faoin seomra.

Aoife and Finn, his loyal friends, knew about the room.

Dúirt Eoin leo faoin bplean.

Eoin told them about the plan.

Oíche dhorcha stoirmiúil a bhí ann nuair a shneáigh siad isteach san áiléar.

It was a dark stormy night when they sneaked into the attic.

Bhí an ghaoth ag croitheadh na fuinneoga.

The wind was shaking the windows.

D’oscail Eoin an doras go cúramach le heochair a raibh sé fuair ó sheanteach feirme.

Eoin carefully opened the door with a key he had found in an old farmhouse.

Istigh, bhí seomra lán le raic.

Inside, there was a room full of clutter.

Bhí sé chiúin ach bhí leabhar tanaí i bhfolach i nguthán.

It was silent, but there was a thin book hidden in a nook.

Bhreathnaigh Aoife agus Finn timpiste ar a chéile.

Aoife and Finn looked at each other in surprise.

D’oscail Eoin an leabhar.

Eoin opened the book.

Bhí sé sean agus caite, díreach mar a bhí an fhoirgneamh féin.

It was old and worn, just like the building itself.

Laethanta deiridh an bhunaitheora a d’fhilleadh leis.

It unveiled the last days of the founder.

Bhí finné ann faoin gcóir a bhí ann roimh Ghaillimh Mháistir.

There was evidence of the state before Gallagher became headmaster.

Thóg an triúr dílis nótaí agus d’fhág siad gach rud mar a bhí.

The loyal trio took notes and left everything as it was.

Ach anois, bhí rún na scoile le fios acu.

But now, they knew the school's secret.

Mhúin sé seo rud luachmhar do Eoin – tá luach mór i dtaithí agus i gcairdeas.

This taught Eoin something valuable – there is great value in experience and friendship.

Ag filleadh ar bhord scoil, bhí Eoin bródúil as a chairde agus a rún nua-aimsithe.

Returning to the school board, Eoin was proud of his friends and his newly found secret.

D’éirigh leis níos mó meas a bheith aige ar stair na scoile, agus bhain sé pléisiúr as a fhios óg.

He managed to gain greater appreciation for the school's history, and he enjoyed the thrill of his young knowledge.

Bhí siad ullamh le dul ar aghaidh le heachtraí nua, leis an dea-chara ag a gcois.

They were ready to move on to new adventures, with good friends by their side.

Beidh scéal eile ann lá éigin, agus bheadh siad réidh don rud atá le teacht.

There would be another story someday, and they would be ready for whatever comes.
