Bhí gaoth fhionnuar Fhómhair ag imeacht trí Pháirc an Fhionnuisce i mBaile Átha Cliath, áit a raibh Eamon ag siúl trí bhrat na dtráchtan ag an margadh ceardaíochta.

The cool autumn breeze was moving through Páirc an Fhionnuisce in Baile Átha Cliath, where Eamon was walking through the blanket of leaves at the craft market.

Bhí boladh an chaiodóin sa spéir agus fuaim na ndaoine ag caint agus ag gáire.

The smell of incense was in the air and the sound of people talking and laughing.

Eamon agus a chara Cormac ag siúl go mall.

Eamon and his friend Cormac were walking slowly.

"Tá súil agam bronntanas foirfe a aimsiú do Shaoirse," arsa Eamon.

"I hope to find the perfect gift for Saoirse," said Eamon.

Bhí sé ag smaoineamh ar an gcaoi is fearr a mhúinfidh sé a meas agus, sa chroí, a bheagán grá.

He was thinking about how best to express his appreciation and, in his heart, a little love.

"Cuimhnigh, Eamon, ní gá go mbeadh costas mór air," a deir Cormac agus aoibh gháire éadrom air.

"Remember, Eamon, it doesn't have to be expensive," Cormac said with a light smile.

Bhí eolas maith aige ar mhian rúnda a charad agus bhí sé ag iarraidh cabhrú leis dul san iomaíocht.

He had a good understanding of his friend's secret desire and wanted to help him compete.

Bhí Saoirse cruthaitheach agus neamhspleách, agus é sin ar eolas ag Eamon.

Saoirse was creative and independent, something Eamon knew well.

Ag druidim leo, bhí sé deacair bronntanas a fháil a bheadh mar a thuigfeadh sí a mhothúcháin.

As they approached, it was hard to find a gift that would match her understanding of his feelings.

I measc na dtáblaí bhí geansaí ornáideach, criostail deas, agus frámaí muirseanta.

Among the tables were ornate sweaters, fine crystal, and charming frames.

Ach níor chuir aon cheann acu aithne air mar an bronntanas ceart.

But none of them resonated with him as the right gift.

Go tobann, chonaic Eamon bráisléad láimhe lámhdhéanta; tá an patrún cosúil le deilgneach a chonaic siad ar shlí bus san am atá thart.

Suddenly, Eamon spotted a handmade bracelet; the pattern was reminiscent of the bramble they had seen on a bus journey in the past.

"An cuimhin leat sin?" a d’fhiafraigh sé de Cormac go héadrom.

"Do you remember that?" he asked Cormac lightly.

"B'fhéidir gurb é seo do sheans," a mhol Cormac. "Cé go bhfuil sé beagán níos daoire."

"Maybe this is your chance," suggested Cormac. "Though it's a bit more expensive."

Bhí Eamon ag díriú ar an mbraisléad.

Eamon focused on the bracelet.

Bhí an ainm Saoirse greamaithe sa chloch, beagnach mar a bhí sé ceaptha dóibh.

The name Saoirse was engraved in the stone, almost as if it were meant for them.

Shocraigh sé ar an iarracht a dhéanamh.

He decided to give it a try.

D’íoc sé don bhráisléad agus mhothaigh sé go raibh cineál meáchan faoisimh agus imní in aigne aige.

He paid for the bracelet and felt a sense of relief and anxiety lift from his mind.

Níor chinn sé ach a phlean a chur i bhfeidhm.

He had only just decided to put his plan into action.

Bhí sé ag súil go dtuigfeadh sí a chur i láthair an bhrabhaisnigh agus a bhronntas.

He hoped she would understand the presentation of the gesture and the gift.

Bhí Eamon sásta ar deireadh as a chinneadh.

Eamon was finally happy with his decision.

Bhí neart muiníne tagtha chun cinn ina chuid faisnéise, agus ní raibh sé in ann fanacht le Saoirse a fheiceáil, súil ghorm ar an gcaoi a bhfreagródh sí.

A lot of confidence emerged from his knowledge, and he couldn't wait to see Saoirse, hopeful of her reaction.

Fiú mura raibh an costas mór, bhí a chroí sa bhronntanas.

Even if it wasn't costly, his heart was in the gift.

I rith an phearsantachta, thuig sé luach dul i mbaol le cairdeas a dhéanamh bhríomhaire.

Throughout the personality, he understood the value of taking risks to make friendship more meaningful.
