Story Transcript:

Cy: Yr oedd modd clywed cân yr adar yn yr awyr glos o ddŵr pêr yn llifo drwy'r dywarchen.
En: The song of the birds could be heard in the close air, with pure water flowing through the turf.

Cy: Cafodd clychau'r Pasg eu clywed yn y pellter.
En: The bells of Easter were heard in the distance.

Cy: Ond, nid oedd popeth yma i'w weld yn dawel yn Nyffryn y Bannau.
En: But not everything here appeared peaceful in Nyffryn y Bannau (Valley of the Bannau).

Cy: Roedd rhywbeth yn annisgwyl yn trio torri'r heddwch, rhywbeth na allai neb ei egluro.
En: There was something unexpected trying to break the peace, something no one could explain.

Cy: Roedd Rhys yn gwraiddog ei gefn i'r man sicrwydd ble roedd wedi tyfu.
En: Rhys had strong roots in the place of security where he had grown up.

Cy: Aeth Rhys yn dwfn i'r dyffryn yn chwilio am yr atebion.
En: Rhys went deep into the valley searching for answers.

Cy: Nid oedd ei feddwl yn dawel ers i'w dad ddiflannu i mewn i'r gors tywyll blynyddoedd yn ôl.
En: His mind had not been at peace since his father disappeared into the dark moor years ago.

Cy: Bob tro yr aeth Rhys, fe'i denwyd gan y goleuni rhyfedd a ymddangosai ac yna diflannu.
En: Every time Rhys ventured out, he was drawn by the strange light that would appear and then vanish.

Cy: Roedd y marwol cynnen rhwng yr hen chwedl a realiti.
En: There was a mortal conflict between the old legend and reality.

Cy: "Dylai rhywun gadw'n glir o'r gors," meddai Gwen, ei ffrind.
En: "Someone should stay clear of the moor," said Gwen, his friend.

Cy: "Mae'n beryglus.
En: "It's dangerous."

Cy: ""A beth sy'n gwneud mor berchen â'r chwedl?
En: "And what makes the legend so relevant?"

Cy: " atebodd Ioan, cyflawn y methiant i weld yr ofn.
En: responded Ioan, completely missing the fear.

Cy: Ond penderfynodd Rhys wrth benderfynol fod yn rhaid mynd ac edrych dros y mynydd tywodlyd.
En: But Rhys decided with determination that he had to go and look over the sandy mountain.

Cy: Carcharodd gymaint ei meddyliau, achos ei awydd i ganfod ei dad neu hyd yn oed glywed yr un truth am yr oleuni.
En: His thoughts were imprisoned by his desire to find his father or even hear the truth about the light.

Cy: Aeth Rhys, Gwen ac Ioan heibio'r cymylau trwchus.
En: Rhys, Gwen, and Ioan passed by the thick clouds.

Cy: Y coed croffer, y gwichian gwater, a'r niwl yn eu lapio fel chwysting storom.
En: The gnarled trees, creaking branches, and the mist wrapped around them like a swirling storm.

Cy: 'Roedd diwrnod glos gyda'r codwm heb gyfeiriad yn gam hwylus i'r daith, mae'r pasg wedi hen fynd.
En: It was a close day with the descent without direction as a convenient step for the journey, Easter long past.

Cy: Ar y diwedd, dim ond cerddediad trwy'r wirionedd didrim.
En: In the end, there was just a walk through the bleak truth.

Cy: Daeth Rhys i'r llecyn cudd, i fan nad oedd yn gwybod ei fod.
En: Rhys came to the hidden spot, a place he didn't know about.

Cy: Mae'n naws yn lanerch ac yn lle tawel, a'r golau o lantern dlawd, yn chwilio'n ddystaw ar y mesur llwyd.
En: There was a serene atmosphere, a quiet place, and the light from a humble lantern, searching quietly over the gray measure.

Cy: Cafodd lantern hynafol, yr un i'w dad gael.
En: He found an ancient lantern, the same one his father had.

Cy: Cadarnodd y deimlad hwn yn Rhys.
En: This feeling was confirmed in Rhys.

Cy: Canfyddodd i'r oleuni fel ei dywys o fewn cymylog ystoriedd y gors, a ddarganfyddodd ddiwall eraill mewn natur cynnil.
En: He discovered that the light guided him within the cloudy stories of the moor, and he found other comforts in subtle nature.

Cy: Nid oedd ei dad yn colli ei olion, ond yn gadael golau ohono'i hun.
En: His father had not lost his traces but had left a light of his own.

Cy: Roedd y gorsaiptiwm yn cael ei llusgo i ofal Rhys.
En: The perceptual moor was being drawn into Rhys' care.

Cy: Roedd i hen ôl o ofn cymylau yn pefrio.
En: The sheen of clouds in fear glinted.

Cy: Fodd bynnag, roedd ganddo dawelwch yn ei feddwl nawr.
En: However, he had peace in his mind now.

Cy: Roedd y dod a'r newid yn arwydd eraill, canfyddodd nad oedd 'na fwy iddi.
En: The coming and the change were other signs, he realized there was nothing more to it.

Cy: Roedd â gwrthbwys hawdd i gymeryd y byd, a dychwelodd gyda gwên glir.
En: He had an easy counterbalance to embrace the world, returning with a clear smile.

Cy: Roedd yn ystyr bywiog, ystoriedd y Tadau ynghyn â hwy yr amser canfod.
En: It was a lively meaning, the stories of the Fathers were with them in their time of discovery.

Cy: Mae'r golau yr arweinwr a oedd yn mewn iddo golchi'r chwedlau.
En: The light was the guide that washed away the legends.

Cy: Mewn taith ffurfedd, sylweddolodd Rhys fod wrth y lan a'r llanw, yn ddiddos i gwyntoedd pell.
En: In an odd journey, Rhys realized he was by the shore and tide, indifferent to distant winds.

Cy: Roedd y pasg, oedd diwrnod glòsach, nid yn ddim ychwanegol yn y dyffryn, dim chwedl dweud, dim yn ôl eithr y rigiog a glynu.
En: Easter, a closer day, was nothing extra in the valley, no legend to tell, nothing back except the ragged and sticking.

Cy: Cafodd Rhys baratoi lle i olygu perthn tu ol i olion ei dad, a lifio'r llanciau o'r gors.
En: Rhys prepared a place to envisage a connection behind his father's traces, and to polish the planks from the moor.

Cy: Roedd yn gadael y marblis a'r chwedl, ac aeth yn ein pelydriad sychach - rhyddhau y daith.
En: He left the marbles and the legend and went into a drier radiance—releasing the journey.

Cy: Y diwedd.
En: The end.

En: Under the starry blue sky of spring, Eira was walking down the winding path of the Swansea University Botanic Garden.

En: There was so much to see.

Cy: Ar ei hochr crwydrodd Gareth, ei phartner dosbarth.
En: Beside her wandered Gareth, her class partner.

Cy: Roedd yn ymddangos yn ddiofal ond roedd syndod gan Eira sut roedd ganddo wybodaeth gudd am blanhigion.
En: He seemed carefree, but Eira was surprised by how he had hidden knowledge about plants.

Cy: Fe daniodd Gareth: "Ti'n gweld rhywbeth diddorol, Eira?

Cy: Taflodd Gareth jôc arall wrth edrych o amgylch y coed cysgodol.
En: Gareth tossed another joke while looking around the shady trees.

Cy: Yn ddim amser, gyda chyfuno eu gwybodaeth, fe ddaeth Ffion ar draws blodyn prin wrth ochr ffynnon berfeddog.
En: In no time, combining their knowledge, Ffion came across a rare flower by the side of a bubbling spring.

Cy: "Dyma fe!
En: "There it is!"

Cy: " gwaeddodd Eira yn erbyn murian y dŵr.
En: shouted Eira against the murmur of the water.

En: Time was running out.

Cy: Roedd eu profiadur yn dechrau galw drosodd y dosbarth.
En: Their professor was starting to call over the class.

Cy: Ond trwy eu hymdrech gyfun, llwyddasant i ddangos yr hyn a ddaethant ar draws iddo.
En: But through their combined effort, they managed to show him what they had discovered.

Cy: Pan ddaeth y profiadur draw, roedd yn rhyfeddu gan eu darganfyddiad.
En: When the professor came over, he was amazed by their find.

Cy: "Mae hwyl i gyd weithredol gyda'n gilydd," meddai'r profiadur, gyda pharch.

Cy: Roedd yn amlwg bod eu henillion a ddaw gyda.

En: Leaving the day's market, it was clear that Eira had embraced success.

En: She had come to appreciate the power of collaboration, and she was excited about the prospect of working in new partnerships again.

Cy: Y bore oedd yn llawn addewid, telynog o wanwyn yng nghoedwig law o Coed y Brenin.
En: The morning was full of promise, enchanting like spring in the rainforest of Coed y Brenin.

Cy: Roedd yr awyr yn llawn cân adar, a golau'r haul yn fflachio trwy'r coed trwchus, gan greu patrymau hardd ar lawr y goedwig.
En: The air was filled with birdsong, and the sunlight flashed through the dense trees, creating beautiful patterns on the forest floor.

En: Recent rain had left a pleasant scent in the air, and the wildflowers, including clustog Fair and red strawberries, colored the surroundings.

Cy: Gareth, gyda'i gathod ac ei lolfa pacio, a edrychodd ar y môr o goed.
En: Gareth, with his cats and his camping couch, looked at the sea of trees.

Cy: Mae natur yn ei enaid ac yn ei waed.
En: Nature was in his soul and in his blood.

Cy: Ers amser maith, roedd wedi ei alw at y goedwig hon.
En: For a long time, he was drawn to this forest.

En: He had a deep desire to reunite with Ceri, his sister.

En: This Easter, she had high hopes for peace and cooperation, and the chance to see her children once again being kind to each other.

Cy: "Gareth, mae amser i ni fwynhau ein gilydd," meddai Eira, gan gyflwyno'n dawel i'r gweithgareddau hwyliog, gan gynnwys helfa oed y Pasg.
En: "Gareth, it's time for us to enjoy each other's company," said Eira, softly introducing the fun activities, including an Easter egg hunt.

Cy: Roedd Catherine (neu Ceri i bawb), wedi bod yn dawel, ei gwyneb yn cysgodi o dan y canghennau wrth iddi grwydro.
En: Catherine (or Ceri to everyone), had been quiet, her face shadowed under the branches as she wandered.

Cy: Roedd yr atgofion chwerw'n adfywio wrth iddy drydar yn ei chlustiau, ond roedd ei chwestiwn unfaidd: allai nhw adeiladu pont eto?
En: Bitter memories revived as whispers in her ears, but her single question remained: could they build a bridge again?

Cy: Wrth i'r helfa ddechrau, roedd Gareth yn gwylio Ceri.
En: As the hunt began, Gareth watched Ceri.

Cy: Yno, mewn efail o olwg, roedd llythyr dylai roedd wedi'i ysgrifennu heb iddi wybod.
En: There, within sight, was a letter he had written without her knowing.

Cy: Roedd hyn yn ei lyfr o eiriau, ei deimladau, a'i ddiolchgymeradau.
En: This was in his book of words, his feelings, and apologies.

Cy: Pan gafodd yr un wcws olaf yn gweithio, sychodd chwys o'i talcen.
En: When the last piece finally worked, he wiped sweat from his forehead.

Cy: Comedi yn y traethawd beirniadol, Ceri a ddaeth ar draws wy Pasg yn llawn problemau.
En: Comedy in the critical essay, Ceri came across an Easter egg full of problems.

Cy: Roedd hylif o'r gorffennol yn tanti rhwng clustog y dail ac ei law.
En: A liquid from the past lingered between the cushion of leaves and her hand.

Cy: Wrth i Ceri agor yr wy, pliciwyd y papur.
En: As Ceri opened the egg, the paper peeled back.

Cy: Roedd ei galon yn gollwng wrth i eiriau Gareth fflamia.
En: Her heart sank as Gareth's words blazed.

Cy: "Mae'n flin gennyf am bopeth, Ceri.
En: "I'm sorry for everything, Ceri.

Cy: Rwyf am i ni fod fel mwyafrif.
En: I want us to be like most."

Cy: "Ei dagrau'n rholio, ac yml yn malwod.
En: Her tears rolled, and sighs unfolded like snails.

Cy: Roedd pob gair yn pen draw i'r haerllug.
En: Every word was a finality to the audaciousness.

Cy: "Gareth!
En: "Gareth!"

Cy: " ei gwaith yn llenwi'r gofod.
En: her voice filled the space.

Cy: "Gareth, dewch yma!
En: "Gareth, come here!"

Cy: "Collodd Gareth ei gêl ei drippledulat.
En: Gareth lost his hidden stammer.

Cy: Safonodd Ceri o flaen.
En: Ceri stood before him.

Cy: "Rydych wedi herio dod o hyd i hyn.
En: "You dared to plant this."

Cy: ""Ydw," meddai Gareth, "ond prin iawn mae'n werth adrodd os, os chi'n gwneud i mi.
En: "I did," said Gareth, "but it's barely worth telling unless, unless you make me."

Cy: "Gwyliodd Ceri dros ei chalon.
En: Ceri looked over her heart.

Cy: "Fe'ch maddeuaf.
En: "I forgive you.

Cy: Gadewch inni ddechrau drosodd.
En: Let us start anew."

Cy: "Am yr un eiliad, roedd rhyfeddol o oddefol.
En: For that moment, it was remarkably forgiving.

Cy: Ar draed o'r goedwig, cynhaliwyd tawelwch.
En: At the edge of the forest, silence was held.

Cy: Roedd eu gorchfygoldeb yn effaith waith, a'u sylwebaeth yn gysylltiedig â'r gorwel.
En: Their conquest was the result of effort, and their commentary connected them to the horizon.

Cy: Ac felly, wrth i'r diwrnod llithro i nos, daeth yr aduniad dal ysbiodd dair neuunbindau yma, o flaen y daith i gyfoeth teuluol o gariad a chytgord.
En: And so, as the day slipped into night, the reunion still spirited three or so souls here, before the journey to a familial richness of love and harmony.

Cy: Carys, fel peiriannydd heddwch, oedd yn wenu'n hoffus, gobeithio am amseroedd gwell.

Cy: Roedd Aneira yn gwybod ei bod hi'n amser i fynd i'r afael â Gwyn.

En: "Gwyn," Aneira began in a slow and thoughtful voice, "it's Easter, a time of new flourishing. I think it's time for us to start anew as well."

Cy: Gwyn addaliodd unwaith eto, gan edrych allan dros yr ucheldir disglair.
En: Gwyn paused once more, looking out over the bright uplands.

Cy: Roedd y golwg o gorsen a gwynt ysgafn yn creu tawelwch.
En: The sight of reeds and a gentle breeze created calmness.

Cy: "Pam nawr?" gofynnodd Gwyn, ei lais yn gymysk rhwng cegrwth a'ch rhywogaeth.
En: "Why now?" Gwyn asked, his voice a mix of skepticism and curiosity.

Cy: "Mae teulu yn fwy pwysig na chymhlethdod," atebodd Aneira yn dawel.
En: "Family is more important than complexity," Aneira answered quietly.

Cy: "Rwy'n teimlo bod rhaid i ni roi hyd.
En: "I feel we must give in.

Cy: Rhaid i ni ofalu am ein gilydd.
En: We must care for each other.

Cy: Beth sy'n well na hyn rhwng ein Golwg brydferth ac amlwg hwn?"

En: I must try.

Cy: Nid yw'n hawdd, ond ni allwn fasgu fy enaid."

En: This time there was no shame or sadness, only a feeling of kinship, sharing memories and running joyously by the lake on the shore of the stones.

Cy: Roedd Aneira yn gwybod bod y cyfle marrnaethwn, ac roedd hi'n falch.
En: Aneira knew that the opportunity had come, and she was glad.

Cy: Cymerodd Gwyn naid, meddwl iddo ef ei hun, daeth tro i gyd-ymal.
En: Gwyn took a leap, thinking to himself, it was time to step together.

Cy: Roedd pob pas yn un newydd i wyneb y gwanwyn, ac ar y diwedd, hyn oedd ailbenyddu.
En: Each step was a new one to face the spring, and in the end, it was renewal.

Cy: Roedd teulu yn cyd-gyffwrdd eto, datguddiad wedi'i greadu, yn canu caneuon newydd y dydd.
En: The family reconnected, a revelation shaped, singing new songs of the day.

Cy: Yn yr diwedd, roedd Aneira wedi dysgu; weithiau, mae dewrder yn dechrau gyda llaw i gymryd gyda gobeithiwr cariad.
En: In the end, Aneira had learned; sometimes, courage begins with a hand to take with hope-filled love.

Cy: Roedd yn cyd-leol gyda mawr haduned i gilydd.
En: They stood together with great unity.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Roedd y bore'n glawiog yng Nghaerdydd, ac roedd Carys yn edrych allan o'r ffenest gyda golwg hiraethus.
En: It was a rainy morning in Caerdydd, and Carys was looking out the window with a longing gaze.

Cy: "Beth am i ni fynd i Gastell Caerdydd heddiw?
En: "How about we go to Castell Caerdydd today?"

Cy: " awgrymodd Gareth, gyda gwên ar ei wyneb.
En: suggested Gareth, with a smile on his face.

Cy: Roedd yn ŵr egnïol, bob amser yn chwilio am antur.
En: He was an energetic man, always looking for adventure.

Cy: Carys, er yn amharod i wynebu'r glaw, teimlai'r angen am newid.
En: Carys, though reluctant to face the rain, felt the need for a change.

Cy: Dechreuon nhw gerdded yn gyflym tuag at yr hen gastell.
En: They started walking quickly towards the old castle.

Cy: Roedd gŵyl y Pasg, ac roedd y lle yn orlawn.
En: It was Easter, and the place was crowded.

Cy: Roedd pobl yn ymgynnull gyda baneri, plant yn rhedeg o gwmpas, ac arogl melys o siocled pasg yn llenwi'r aer.
En: People were gathering with banners, children running around, and the sweet smell of Easter chocolate filled the air.

Cy: Roedd y glaw yn diferu'n drwm ac roedd hi'n anodd gweld y manylion ar y waliau hynafol.
En: The rain was dripping heavily, and it was hard to see the details on the ancient walls.

Cy: "Mae'n rhy gorlawn," cwynodd Carys.
En: "It's too crowded," complained Carys.

Cy: "Sut fydda i'n gweld unrhyw beth gyda'r torfeydd hyn?
En: "How will I see anything with these crowds?"

Cy: " Roedd Gareth yn chwilio am ffordd wahanol.
En: Gareth was searching for a different way.

Cy: "Dilyn fi," meddai'n gyfrinachol.
En: "Follow me," he said conspiratorially.

Cy: Cerddon nhw i ffwrdd o'r tyrfa, heibio'r gerddi a dros balmant gwlyb.
En: They walked away from the crowd, past the gardens and over the wet pavement.

Cy: Heb fawr o amser, roeddent wedi darganfod llwybr cudd yng ngardd y castell.
En: In no time, they had discovered a hidden path in the castle garden.

Cy: Cafodd ei guddio gan wrych blodeuog a phlanhigion coginio.
En: It was concealed by a flowering hedge and cooking plants.

Cy: "Beth yw hyn?
En: "What is this?"

Cy: " gofynnodd Carys, yn chwilfrydig ond yn betrusgar.
En: asked Carys, curious yet hesitant.

Cy: Dechreuon nhw gerdded ar hyd y llwybr cul.
En: They began walking along the narrow path.

Cy: Roedd y gwynt yn chwythu'n feddal trwy'r blodau, gan adael arogl cyfoethog o'r ddaear wlyb.
En: The wind was blowing softly through the flowers, leaving a rich scent of wet earth.

Cy: Ar ddiwedd y llwybr, dechreuodd Carys sylwi ar borth addurnedig a fyddai'n hawdd ei fethu â hi.
En: At the end of the path, Carys began to notice a decorated doorway that would be easy to miss.

Cy: "Beth os awn ni i mewn?
En: "What if we go in?"

Cy: " awgrymodd Gareth.
En: suggested Gareth.

Cy: Roedd ei lygaid yn disgleirio o gyffro.
En: His eyes were shining with excitement.

Cy: Agorodd drws trwm gyda chyffyrddiad ysgafn, a aethant i mewn.
En: He opened the heavy door with a gentle touch, and they went inside.

Cy: O'i mewn, roedd rhan o'r castell na welodd neb.
En: Inside, there was a part of the castle that no one had seen.

Cy: Ystafell dywyll, wedi'i llenwi â chabinetau llyfrau hen.
En: A dark room, filled with old book cabinets.

Cy: Roedd y nenfwd yn uchel, gyda drychau mawr yn rhoi'r ymdeimlad o ehangder.
En: The ceiling was high, with large mirrors giving the sense of vastness.

Cy: Wrth iddynt edrych o gwmpas, cafodd Carys ei llenwi â theimlad o ddyfais a rhyfeddod.
En: As they looked around, Carys was filled with a sense of wonder and awe.

Cy: Roedd yr oriau'n pasio'n araf yn yr ystafell gudd, gyda sgyrsiau melus ac ysbrydoliaeth newydd yn llifo.
En: The hours passed slowly in the hidden room, with sweet conversations and new inspiration flowing.

Cy: Roedd Carys yn dechrau deall bod hyd yn oed y mannau mwyaf cyfarwydd yn gallu croesi gyda chyfrinachau, os mai un oedd yn mynd ar hyd llwybr newydd.
En: Carys began to understand that even the most familiar places could hold secrets if one just went down a new path.

Cy: Roedd gan yr ysblander creu adeiladau hynafol ffordd o ddal ei dychymyg, gan fylchu'r diffygion bob dydd.
En: The splendor of creating ancient buildings had a way of capturing her imagination, bridging the gaps of everyday life.

Cy: Pan ddaeth hi'n amser gadael, roedd y glaw wedi tawelu.
En: When it was time to leave, the rain had eased.

Cy: Cerddon nhw'n dawel yn ôl tuag at ben y castell, tra roedd yr haul yn dechrau dod heibio'r cymylau.
En: They walked quietly back towards the top of the castle, while the sun began to break through the clouds.

Cy: "Diolch Gareth," meddai Carys yn dawel, yn sylwi bod antur, wedi'i blygu ym mhob cornel cudd.
En: "Thank you, Gareth," said Carys quietly, realizing that adventure was folded into every hidden corner.

Cy: Roedd ei galon yn llawn a'i ysbryd yn goleuo gan y profiad newydd.
En: Her heart was full and her spirit illuminated by the new experience.

Cy: Mae bywyd, meddyliai, yn llawn o fanylion bach a straeon cudd, sydd ond yn aros i gael eu darganfod - os mai un yw'r cyntaf i ddarostwng y glaw a dilyn ei chwilfrydedd.
En: Life, she thought, is full of small details and hidden stories, just waiting to be discovered—if one is the first to brave the rain and follow their curiosity.
