Ga: Lá fuar geimhridh a bhí ann nuair a shocraigh Sean agus Aoife dul ar eachtra go Caisleán na Blarnan.
En: It was a cold winter's day when Sean and Aoife decided to go on an adventure to Blarney Castle.

Ga: Bhí clú agus cáil ar an gcloch seo ar fud an domhain mar má phógann tú í, deirtear go mbíonn an-bhéasaí agat ina dhiaidh.
En: This stone was famous worldwide because if you kiss it, it is said that you will have great eloquence afterwards.

Ga: Bhí Sean cinnte go mbeadh sé i bhfad níos cumasaí ina chuid cainte má phógfadh sé an Chloch Liag.
En: Sean was sure he would be much more articulate if he kissed the Blarney Stone.

Ga: Nuair a shroich siad an caisleán, bhí na scamaill dorcha sa spéir agus an ghaoth ag séideadh go láidir, ach níor lig sé sin do dhóchas Aoife laghdú.
En: When they reached the castle, the dark clouds were in the sky and the wind was blowing strongly, but that didn't dampen Aoife's spirits.

Ga: "Beidh sé seo craic," arsa Aoife le gáire.
En: "This will be fun," Aoife said with a laugh.

Ga: Díreach ansin, chonaic siad í - an Chloch Liag.
En: Right then, they saw it - the Blarney Stone.

Ga: Thosaigh Sean ag dreapadh suas go dtí an áit áirithe ina raibh na mílte duine roimhe, ag iarraidh a bheannacht féin a fháil ón gcloch ársa.
En: Sean started climbing up to the place where thousands of people had been before, seeking to receive their own blessing from the ancient stone.

Ga: Bhí Aoife ag gáire go fóill agus í ag féachaint suas air.
En: Aoife was still laughing as she watched him.

Ga: Ach an nóiméad a leag Sean a liopaí ar an gcloch, tharla an tubaiste – chuaigh a chorp leath bealaigh tríd an mbearna agus ansin, ní raibh sé in ann gluaiseacht.
En: But the moment Sean laid his lips on the stone, the disaster happened – his body went halfway through the gap and then, he couldn't move.

Ga: Bhí Aoife ar bís.
En: Aoife was in a panic.

Ga: "Sean, an bhfuil tú ceart go leor?
En: "Sean, are you okay?"

Ga: " a scairt sí.
En: she shouted.

Ga: Ach ní raibh aon fhreagra aici.
En: But she got no response.

Ga: Bhí sé greamaithe.
En: He was stuck.

Ga: Chuaigh eagla uirthi agus rith sí chun cabhair a fháil.
En: Fear gripped her and she ran to get help.

Ga: Ansin, is é sin a tharla.
En: And then, that's what happened.

Ga: Tháinig daoine le chéile chun cabhrú le Sean - turasóirí a bhí timpeall, oibrí an chaisleáin, agus fiú fear a bhí ag caoineadh an chaonach in aice láimhe.
En: People came together to help Sean - tourists who were around, a castle worker, and even a man who was mourning the loss of his wife nearby.

Ga: Tar éis iarrachtaí mór le rá, agus go leor smaointe cruthaitheacha, bhí Sean saor faoi dheireadh.
En: After great efforts, and many creative ideas, Sean was finally free.

Ga: Thit sé isteach in arm Aoife agus d'fhéach sé timpeall go hálainn.
En: He fell into Aoife's arms and looked around beautifully.

Ga: "Tá brón orm," a dúirt sé le gáire faoiseamh, "ach ní dóigh liom go bhfuil mé ró-chainteach tar éis an tsaoil!
En: "I'm sorry," he said with a relieved laugh, "but I don't think I'm too talkative after all!"

Ga: "Rinne siad gáire araon agus Aoife ag rá, "Is dóigh liom go bhfuil tú díreach foirfe mar atá tú, Sean.
En: They both laughed, with Aoife saying, "I think you're just perfect as you are, Sean."

Ga: "Agus le sin, d'imigh siad le chéile ó Chaisleán na Blarnan, lán dóchas agus scéalta grinn le hinsint, agus cinneadh nach dteastaíonn cloch draíochta uait chun a bheith cainteach nó suimiúil - tá na scileanna sin laistigh díot cheana féin.
En: And with that, they left Blarney Castle together, full of hope and funny stories to tell, and decided that you don't need a magic stone to be eloquent or interesting - those skills are already within you.
