  • Tá saol ag fás i mbaile beag álainn faoin earrach.

    Life is sprouting in the beautiful small town in the spring.

  • Tá an margadh áitiúil lán de chlifíní agus de chaola, seachmall i ngach coirnéal.

    The local market is full of trinkets and goodies, with wonders in every corner.

  • Tá boladh bláthanna á n-athrú tríd an aer.

    The smell of flowers is changing through the air.

  • I lár an mhargaidh, tá Maeve, Cormac, agus Aisling ar thóir an phicnic foirfe.

    In the middle of the market, Maeve, Cormac, and Aisling are in search of the perfect picnic.

  • Tá a súile lán de shoilse le háthas.

    Their eyes are full of light with happiness.

  • Tá Maeve an-tógtha, ag samhlú an phicnic iontach a scoth le na cairde.

    Maeve is very excited, imagining the wonderful picnic with her friends.

  • "Caithfimid brioscaí bácáilte úr a fháil," arsa sí, ag breathnú thart.

    "We must get freshly baked cookies," she says, looking around.

  • Tuigeann sí go bhfuil an margadh lán go doras.

    She realizes that the market is bustling.

  • Tá Cormac díreach taobh thiar di, ar crochadh deas.

    Cormac is just behind her, hanging out pleasantly.

  • “Tá sé cineál gnóthach inniu, nach bhfuil?” a deir sé le gáire.

    “It’s kind of busy today, isn’t it?” he says with a laugh.

  • Is breá leis an spraoi ach ní bhíonn béim chomh mór aige ar na sonraí is a bhíonn ag Maeve.

    He loves the fun but doesn’t place as much emphasis on details as Maeve does.

  • Agus ansin Aisling, siúlann sí go tapa, ag iarraidh éifeachtúlacht a aicmiú.

    And then there's Aisling, walking quickly, trying to classify efficiency.

  • “Tiocfaidh leatsa an rud is gá a cheannach, tá an chuid eile rómhaith faoin margadh seo,” a mhíníonn sí.

    “You can get what’s needed to buy, the rest is too good under this market,” she explains.

  • Tá a chuimhne fós á leanúint go díreach ar cad atá ar siúl aici.

    Her memory is still precisely following what she is doing.

  • Téann siad ó stáile go stáile.

    They go from stall to stall.

  • Tá an bia blasta, ach tosaíonn na rudaí ag imeacht faoin trácht.

    The food is tasty, but the items start disappearing under the traffic.

  • Beagnach gach stáille tá piseanna tirime bánaithe gan a dhíol.

    At nearly every stall, dried peas are sold out.

  • Tá súile Maeve ag éirí le heagla.

    Maeve's eyes start to widen with worry.

  • “Níl gach rud againn,” deir sí le crith bhaite istigh ionaint.

    “We don’t have everything,” she says with a nervous tremor inside her.

  • Tá an déileáil ríthábhachtach ag teacht thart agus an t-am ag sleamhnú.

    The crucial deal is approaching and time is slipping away.

  • Ansin, osclaíonn an stáille deireanach le rún annamh.

    Then, the last stall opens with a rare secret.

  • “Féach,” arsa Maeve, ag díriú ar an mbínse milseán annamh.

    “Look,” says Maeve, pointing to the rare sweets stand.

  • "Ach, tá sé níos daoire ná mar a cheapamar," a deir Maeve le clamhsán.

    "But, it's more expensive than we thought," Maeve says with a complaint.

  • Seo an clár is dual don déileáil.

    This is the stage set for the deal.

  • Cloíonn Maeve lena hintinn.

    Maeve sticks to her decision.

  • Faigheann sí an rud is gá a fháil, ach ní gach is fearr.

    She gets what is needed but not the best.

  • Tugann sí faoiseamh do a cairde le mbuíochas.

    She relieves her friends with gratitude.

  • “Tá sé ceart go leor,” a deir Maeve, gan aithne ar an rogha.

    “It’s okay,” Maeve says, unaware of the choice.

  • Feictear scáth bán ar chailín eile ag an cuma chríoch ag an margadh.

    A white shadow is seen on another girl at the market's endpoint.

  • Caitheann sé solas bunúsach ar an saol, go bhfuil cairde agus gach am dearfach níos luachmhaire ná an foirfeachta.

    It casts a basic light on life, that friends and every positive moment are more valuable than perfection.

  • Deanann Maeve geallúint dá cairde, “Beidh sé mar phicnic den scoth, mar is sinne le chéile é.”

    Maeve makes a promise to her friends, “It will be an excellent picnic because we are together.”

  • Sásaíonn an aipicnícc, ina modh is simplí, gach duine.

    The picnic, in its simplest form, satisfies everyone.

  • Aoibh duibhe i ngan fhios dóibh, swell inniu.

    A secret smile grows unintentionally, swelling today.

  • Gníomh é simplíoch, ach dineigin fiúntach.

    It’s a simplistic act, but something worthwhile.

  • Tugann sé le rudaí simplí sa saol áthas mór do Maeve, Cormac, agus Aisling.

    It brings Maeve, Cormac, and Aisling great joy from the simple things in life.
