Tá an scéal seo suite i dteach tae beag i nGaillimh.

The story is set in a small tea house in Gaillimh (Galway).

Tá an báisteach fánach ag tiomáint go trom fós, agus tá Eamon ag seasamh taobh istigh den doras.

The sporadic rain is still driving heavily, and Eamon is standing just inside the door.

Tá sé fliuch báite ón mbáisteach, ach tá teas an tae ag fáiltiú roimhe faoin díon sin.

He is soaked from the rain, but the warmth of the tea greets him under that roof.

Bíonn an teach tae seo plódaithe le daoine i gcónaí, agus inniu nach bhfuil aon eisceacht ann.

This tea house is always packed with people, and today is no exception.

Tá Siobhán sa chúinne istigh sa tseomra, curtha taiblí de chaiféí roimpi, agus mias de sméara dubha agus craobh réidh dóibh.

Siobhán is in the corner of the room, with coffee tables laid out before her, and a dish of blackberries and raspberries ready for them.

Tá aintín aici sa chathair seo, ach tá sí féin ina cónaí thar lear leis na blianta fada.

She has an aunt in this city, but she herself has been living abroad for many years.

Tá a croí briste as aintín agus as saol na Gaillimhe.

Her heart is broken over her aunt and the life in Galway.

Go tobann, súil Siobhán leamh-sá ar aghaidh a fheiceann na pictiúir de cheoltóirí áitiúla ar na ballaí.

Suddenly, Siobhán's listless gaze meets the faces in the pictures of local musicians on the walls.

Tá ceol traidisiúnta Gaelach ag seinm sa chúlra, agus tugann sé solas aoibhneasach don tírdhreach fuar, cé go dtiteann an díle báistí go réidh ar na fuinneoga.

Traditional Irish music is playing in the background, bringing a cheerful light to the cold landscape, even as a fine rain falls gently on the windows.

Tagann Eamon chomhfhad, an fonn cósúil le ceol gurb é a spreag.

Eamon comes over, seemingly inspired by the music he hears.

"An bhfuil suim agat ins an gceol seo?

"Are you interested in this music?"

" a fhiafraíonn sé go cúthail.

he asks shyly.

Bíonn cuma ar a aghaidh, náireach, ach le fonn an bia agus an cheoil ag sruthú tríd an atmaisféar.

There is an embarrassed look on his face, but the desire for food and music flows through the atmosphere.

"Is breá liom é," a deir Siobhán, aoibhneas ina súile.

"I love it," Siobhán says, joy in her eyes.

"Tá na tonnta ceoil cosúil le céimeanna de mo shaol anseo, ar shlí.

"The waves of music are like the steps of my life here, in a way."

"Tá plé siamsúil idir iad, agus tosaíonn siad ag caint faoi bhuan-óidhreacht Eamon agus a chuid grianghrafadóireachta.

They have an entertaining conversation, and they start talking about Eamon's heritage and his photography.

Luann Siobhán a cuid scéalta, atá cosúil le fathaigh amuigh faoin spéir i bhfad i gcéin.

Siobhán mentions her stories, which are like giants under the distant sky.

Ach tá eagla ar Eamon.

But Eamon is afraid.

Tá sé faitíosach go mbeidh masla an diúltaithe air mar a tháinig roimhe seo.

He is fearful of the insult of rejection as he faced before.

Tá sé fós ag iarraidh fiosrú an dáimh nua seo.

He is still trying to explore this new relationship.

Is le deacracht a chruinníonn sé a misneach, ach deir sé, "An mhaith leat teacht le chéile ag ceolchoirm sa lár an tseachtain seo, chomh maith le chéile?

With difficulty, he gathers his courage and says, "Would you like to meet up at a concert in the middle of this week too?"

"Tá mearbhall ar Siobhán i láthair, mar tá sí idir dhó léinn.

Siobhán is confused at the moment, as she is torn between two worlds.

An fanfaidh sí i nGaillimh nó an leanfaidh a croí í?

Will she stay in Gaillimh or follow her heart?

Ach tugann an smaoineamh teasa, mar go bhfuil Eamon ionraic agus faigheann sí muinín ina cholúnacht fógartha.

But the idea warms her, as Eamon is sincere, and she finds trust in his steadfast openness.

Gach re seach, osclaíonn siamsaí sean-nós nua faoina dtaca i gceol traidisiúnta Gaelach.

Every so often, a new traditional song opens their support in Irish traditional music.

Cuireann an ceol i gcuimhne dóibh go bhfuil ceangal domhain acu le chéile.

The music reminds them that they have a deep connection with each other.

Tá siad ábalta é a mhothú, cosúil le haibhneibh ar a samhlacha.

They can feel it, like rivers on their paths.

Ag deireadh an amhráin, aontaíonn siad a sonraí teagmhála a mhalartú.

At the end of the song, they agree to exchange contact details.

Beartaíonn siad go bhfeicfear arís ar cheiliúradh Samhna mór sa chathair, áit a mbeidh ceol, damhsaí, agus scéalta á gcaint go léir.

They plan to see each other again at a big Halloween celebration in the city, where there will be music, dancing, and storytelling for all.

Mar shíolaigh an scéal le chéile, bhí an cuimse coinneal adhmaid ag casadh leis an chúl.

As the story unfolded, the gentle turning of a wooden candle backdroppped it.

Bhí Eamon tar éis fáil réidh leis an éagruasmhráma agus Siobhán ag dul i bhfréamhacha níos doimhne in aird ar a dtalamh féin.

Eamon had let go of the murmurings of uncertainty, and Siobhán was delving deeper into the attention to their own land.

Lach leis an bhfómhar i bhfocal a bhí.

It was like autumn in a whispered word.
