Bhí Liam ar a theitheadh ón mbaile.
Liam was on the run from home.
Bhí sé i ndeireadh na féide faoina shaol! Fear foréigeanach ba ea a athair.
It was at the end of his life! His father was a violent man
Bhí sé i gcónaí ag troid lena Mháthair
He was always fighting with his Mother.
Bhris sé a lán rud sa bhaile cheana féin
He already broke a lot of things at home
Lá amháin, d’imigh Liam ón mbaile ar an traein go dtí Baile Átha Cliath.
One day, Liam left town on the train to Dublin
Nuair a bhí sé sa charráiste bhuail sé le seanfhear.
When he was in the carriage he met an old man.
Thug sé Daideo air féin
He called himself Daideo.
Cheap mé go raibh sé sin ait go leor!
I thought that was pretty cool!
Bhí Daideo go deas agus d’éist sé leis.
Daideo was nice and listened to him.
Bhí múinín ag Liam i nDaideo
Liam had confidence in Daideo.
Creid é nó ná creid, d’inis Daideo go raibh sé féin ar a theitheadh chomh maith.
Believe it or not, Daideo said he was on the run as well
Thosaigh Liam ag caint le “Daideo” agus d’inis sé a scéal dó
Liam started talking to “Daideo” and told him his story
Faraor, Bhí Liam sásta dul timpeall na cathrach le Daideó.
Sadly, Liam was happy to go around the city with Grandpa.
Nuair a shroich siad an stáisúin traenach bhí cara Daideo ann.
When they arrived at the train station Daideos friend was there.
Mánus is ainm dó
His name is Manus
Bhí Daideo agus Mánus garbh le Liam, chuir Daideo Liam isteach sa charr go garbh.
Daideo and Mánus were rough with Liam, Daideo put Liam into the car roughly.
Buíochas le Dia, bhí fear na dticéad tar éis glaoch a chur ar na Gardaí
Thankfully, the ticket man had called the Gardaí
Cheap sé go raibh rud éigin ait ag tarlú idir Daideo agus Liam
He thought that something strange was happening between Daideo and Liam.
Ansin chumhnigh sé go bhfaca sé an seanduine le buachaill óg cheana
Then he remembered he had seen the oldman with a young boy before
Buachaill as Durlas a chuaigh ar iarraidh sé mhí ó shin.
A boy from Thurles who went missing six months ago.
Cathal Ó Dufaigh ab ainm don bhuachaill agus níor tháinig sé abhaile riamh.
The boy’s name was Cathal Ó Dufaigh and he never came home.
Bhí fear na dticéad cinnte go raibh Cathal Ó Dufaigh leis an seanduine ar traein an lá a d’imigh sé ar iarraidh.
The ticket man was sure that Cathal Ó Dufaigh was with the old man on the train the day he went missing.
Sin é an fáth ar ghlaoigh sé ar na Gardaí.
That is why he called the Gardai.
