Ga: Lá fuar gheimhridh a bhí ann, agus bhí an ghrian ag titim taobh thiar de na foirgnimh ard i mBaile Átha Cliath.
En: It was a cold winter's day, and the sun was setting behind the tall buildings in Dublin.

Ga: I dtábhairne beo bríomhar le hainm "Tigh Mhic Eileagóid," bhí na daoine ag teacht le chéile tar éis oibre chun scíth a ligean agus pionta a ól.
En: In a lively pub named "Tigh Mhic Eileagóid," people were coming together after work to relax and have a pint.

Ga: I gcúinne beag an tábhairne, bhí fear darb ainm Séamus ag déanamh ullmhúcháin d’oíche fada tábhachtach – bhí sé mar bhainisteoir an tábhairne.
En: In a small corner of the pub, a man named Séamus was preparing for an important long night – he was the bar manager.

Ga: Aoife, an freastalaí gealgháireach, bhí sí ag rince timpeall na gcustaiméirí ag dáileadh piontaí Guinness go healaíonta.
En: Aoife, the cheerful waitress, was dancing around the customers, skillfully pouring pints of Guinness.

Ga: Lámh le lámh le barra an tábhairne, bhí suíochán beag spéirí a bhí ina bhaile d’fhear beag aisteach, é gléasta i seanéadaí glasa.
En: At the bar counter, there was a small empty seat where a peculiar little man, dressed in green trousers, made himself at home.

Ga: Shíl Séamus go raibh custaiméir nua istigh ag súil le greim a fháil ar dhraíocht an pionta.
En: Séamus thought the new customer was looking forward to the magic of the pint.

Ga: Le gáire mór ar a aghaidh, chuir Séamus pionta scafánta Guinness ar an gcountar dó.
En: With a big smile on his face, Séamus placed a frothy pint of Guinness on the counter for him.

Ga: Ach nuair a rinne an fear beag áitimh lena méire beaga, lasadh scáil níos gile timpeall air, agus tógadh an pionta ón mbarr go héadrom.
En: But when the little man touched his small hands to the glass, a brighter light appeared around him, and the pint lifted from the counter to hover in the air.

Ga: "Ó mo chroí!
En: "Oh my heart!"

Ga: " Bhéic Séamus ionadh is eagla.
En: exclaimed Séamus in surprise and fear.

Ga: Bhí a fhios ag gach uile dhuine go bhfillfeadh leprechaun nuair nach mbíonn súil ar bith ag duine leo.
En: Everyone knew that leprechauns would return when they caught someone's eye.

Ga: Thosaigh an fear beag ag canadh amhrán mistéireach.
En: The little man began to sing a mysterious song.

Ga: Ní raibh focail an amhráin tuigthe ag na daoine timpeall, ach bhí rithim draíochtúil leis nach bhféadfadh duine ar bith seasamh ina choinne.
En: The words of the song were not understood by the surrounding people, but it had a magical rhythm that captivated everyone.

Ga: Thosaigh Aoife ag damhsa gan smacht ar a cosa, agus tháinig aoibh gháire ar aghaidh gach custaiméir.
En: Aoife began to dance uncontrollably, and a smile spread across each customer's face.

Ga: Ach Séamus, a bhí ullamh don dúshlán seo, bhain sé amach mála beag síoda a bhí ceilte aige óna sheanmháthair.
En: However, Séamus, prepared for this challenge, retrieved a small silk bag he inherited from his grandmother.

Ga: Chuir sé an mála ar an mbarr le gliúcaíocht.
En: He placed the bag on the counter with determination.

Ga: "Tá rud éigin agamsa duitse, a fhear beag," ar sé go calma.
En: "I have something for you, little man," he said calmly.

Ga: Bhí splanc i súil an leprechaun agus d’imigh an draíocht as a chuid canadh.
En: The sparkle in the leprechaun's eye vanished, and the magic ceased from his singing.

Ga: Ní fhéadfadh leprechaun seasamh in aghaidh gealltanas díreach.
En: A leprechaun couldn't stand against a direct promise.

Ga: Thug Séamus geall leis an leprechaun: má stopfadh sé a chuid cleasanna agus a mhíthapa, go mbeadh an mála síoda uaidh saor in aisce.
En: Séamus made a deal with the leprechaun: if he stopped his tricks and mischief, the silk bag would be his for free.

Ga: Le miongháire, aontaigh an leprechaun.
En: With a chuckle, the leprechaun agreed.

Ga: Thit an ciúnas againn ar an tábhairne agus stad Aoife ag damhsa leis an spás folamh ina croí.
En: The pub fell silent, and Aoife ceased her dance in the empty space in her heart.

Ga: Thug Séamus an mála síoda don leprechaun, a d'imigh láithreach le geáitsí lena pionta draíochta.
En: Séamus gave the silk bag to the leprechaun, who immediately vanished with giggles, along with his magical pint.

Ga: Agus mar sin, d'fhill an tsíocháin ar "Tigh Mhic Eileagóid" agus lean an oíche ar aghaidh, ceol agus gáirí líon na beárn arís.
En: And so, the peace returned to "Tigh Mhic Eileagóid," and the night continued with music and laughter filling the void.

Ga: Tháinig scéal Séamus agus Aoife i dtaobh an leprechaun draíochtúil mar bhéaloideas na tábhairne, agus meabhraíodh gach uair a thagadh pionta Guinness chun boird a bheith aireach ar mhéid na ngiúmar agus na scéalta a d'fhéadfadh teacht le draíocht.
En: The story of Séamus and Aoife's encounter with the magical leprechaun became a legend of the pub, reminding everyone each time a pint of Guinness arrived to be careful of the amount of laughter and stories that could come with magic.
