Cy: Mae'r awyrgylch yn heintus yn Bae Caerdydd.

En: Those who walk through the weekend market are enchanted by the brilliance of colors and sounds.
Cy: Mae'r hafan wedi'i drosi'n oriel awyr agored, lle mae'n ymddangos fod pob stôl yn amgylchynu â chrefftau a chelf leol.
En: The haven has been transformed into an open-air gallery, where every stall seems surrounded by local crafts and art.
Cy: Clywir y swnllyd papur syn cymysgu â sïon pobl yn crwydro o gwmpas.
En: The rustle of paper blends with the chatter of people wandering around.
Cy: Yn nhoriad oer yr hydref, mae dail cochion a melyn yn dawnsio yn y gwynt ysgafn.
En: In the chilly bite of autumn, red and yellow leaves dance in the gentle breeze.
Cy: Wrth droeon, dyma lle mae Eira yn synhwyro felly.
En: At times, this is where Eira finds herself so.
Cy: Mae hi, yn ddisglair o'i sylfaen fel dylunydd graffigol, wedi dychwelyd i Gymru ar ôl blynyddoedd yn teithio byd-eang.
En: She, bright from her foundation as a graphic designer, has returned to Cymru after years of traveling worldwide.
Cy: Mae ei dymuniad i gysylltu â'i threftadaeth Gymreig yn cryfhau wrth iddi bori trwy'r cerrig cerfiedig a'r lluniau haniaethol.
En: Her desire to connect with her Welsh heritage grows stronger as she browses through carved stones and abstract pictures.
Cy: Ar y ffordd arall mae Gethin.
En: On the opposite path is Gethin.
Cy: Mae ei frychau'n cael ei golli yn llenwi mathau am ble mae'n siwr y dylai sgrifennu awdur ei albwm newydd.
En: His thoughts are lost in contemplating where he should write the new album's lyrics.
Cy: Er ei charisma ac efel dathlu, mae teimlad o anffurfiad yn codi yn ddwfn ynddo.
En: Despite his charisma and celebratory presence, a feeling of strangeness rises deep within him.
Cy: Mae hiraeth am ysbrydoliaeth iachusus yn ei gyrru i archwilio’i gwreiddiau.
En: A longing for healthy inspiration drives him to explore his roots.
Cy: Mae'r ddau'n cael ei atynnu at sefyllfa gyfarfyddiadol: stôl storïwr sy'n gwerthu byddin o lyfrau ac esiamplau o chwedlau Cymraeg.
En: Both are drawn to an encounter: a storyteller's stall selling books and examples of Welsh tales.
Cy: Mae'r delweddau yn siarad â'r gynulleidfa mewn iaith ddistaw, ond pwerus.
En: The images speak to the audience in a quiet, yet powerful, language.
Cy: Wrth iddynt ymdrochi mewn fflachiadau'r gorffennol: Dewi Sant, y naid ysbrydol â'r Ddraig Goch, mae rhywbeth yn cynnilo yn eu meddyliadau nhw.
En: As they immerse themselves in flashes of the past: Dewi Sant, the spiritual leap with the Ddraig Goch, something stirs subtly in their minds.
Cy: Cyn bo hir, mae eu cyrff gerhofi'n rheondal at ei gilydd.
En: Before long, their bodies gravitate invisibly towards one another.
Cy: "Eira yw fy enw i," nododd hi'n dawel yn ei llais meddal.
En: "Eira is my name," she noted softly in her gentle voice.
Cy: "Gethin," ymatebodd ef gydag ychwanegiad bach o gydymdeimlad.
En: "Gethin," he responded with a hint of empathy.
Cy: Wrth sgwrsio, maent yn sylwi ar ddiddordeb cyffredin mewn chwedlau.
En: As they converse, they notice a common interest in legends.
Cy: Mae Eira yn egluro sut mae hi'n gobeithio defnyddio ei thraddodiad i gyfalaf yn y celfi maent yn cynorthwyo i'w greu.
En: Eira explains how she hopes to use her tradition to capitalize in the crafts they help create.
Cy: "Rydyn ni'n ddechrau newydd.
En: "We are a new beginning.
Cy: Yn gymysg rhwng ysgogiad a'r awen," mae'n cynnig Gethin, yn eistedd i ddechrau ar gynllun newydd.
En: A blend of motivation and inspiration," offers Gethin, sitting down to start on a new plan.
Cy: Mae'r prisclad yn eu calonnau yn lleddfu wrth iddynt newid eu hanes a theuluoedd i goproject a fydd yn cychwyn ymwybyddiaeth newydd.
En: The burden in their hearts eases as they share their histories and families into a project that will spark new awareness.
Cy: Wrth i adlewyrchiad y dŵr ym Mwy Caerdydd bywiogi wrth iddi fwrw i'r prynhawn, mae Eira'n teimlo bod ei phenderfyniad i ddychwelyd yn addas.
En: As the reflection of the water in Bae Caerdydd brightens into the afternoon, Eira feels her decision to return was fitting.
Cy: Mae Gethin, bellach dan arweiniad gwynt iachus, yn ymlwybro i guddio'r gwacter ieithyddol a llenwi cerdd yn ei galon.
En: Gethin, now guided by a healing breeze, strides to hide the linguistic void and fill poetry in his heart.
Cy: Mae'n storïaeth sy'n cychwyn perthynas newydd, nid yn unig rhwng Eira a Gethin, ond hefyd rhwng y bobl a'r mannau lle gwelir cymhlygion allweddol eu hanian economaidd yn yr hydref.
En: It's a story that begins a new relationship, not only between Eira and Gethin, but also between the people and the places where key aspects of their economic nature are witnessed in the autumn.

Story Transcript:
Cy: Wrth i'r haul ddechrau machlud, roedd adlais cliwad don ar y tywod gwag.
En: As the sun began to set, the echo of a wave's sigh was heard on the empty sand.
Cy: Gwelai Geraint y pentref môr hen, yn oneco, dros ben llestri gan amser.
En: Geraint saw the old seaside village, echoing, overwhelmed by time.
Cy: Roedd y tai cerrig wedi pydru a'r gerddi'n llawn mieri gwyllt.
En: The stone houses had decayed, and the gardens were full of wild brambles.
Cy: Mae dail yr hydref ar ben y palmant fel cluddfeddi rhyw hanes coll.
En: The autumn leaves lay on the pavement like the grave markers of some lost history.
Cy: Roedd Geraint, dyn ifanc penderfynol, yn sefyll yn y pentref dirgel gyda'i gefnder, Rhiannon, yr un mor benderfynol.

Cy: Mae'r ddau yn sefyll yn eu mynwesau wrth ymyl hen dy eu teulu.
En: The two stood quietly with their hearts by their family's old house.
Cy: Roedd y lle yn wisgo safn amser, gyda muriau wynebog a tho euraid gan ranau eginyn.
En: The place wore the jaws of time, with weathered walls and a roof adorned with tendrils.
Cy: Roedd Geraint ar daith i ddod o hyd i drisfeddian y teulu—aeth ar goll ganrifoedd yn ôl—i ddeall eu gorffennol a chyfleu hynny ymlaen i'r dyfodol.
En: Geraint was on a journey to find the family's treasure—lost centuries ago—to understand their past and convey it to the future.
Cy: "Geraint, gallaf deimlo nerth yr awyr yma," meddai Rhiannon, ei llais yn cyffroi gydag awch dros yr hyn oedd yn dod.
En: "Geraint, I can feel the strength of the air here," said Rhiannon, her voice excited with anticipation for what was to come.
Cy: Roedd gwynt oer y môr yn lapio'n cariadus o'u cwmpas, ond ni allant adael iddo eu hatal.
En: The cold sea breeze lovingly wrapped around them, but they could not let it hold them back.
Cy: Roedd Geraint yn ei hanfod yn llawn amheuon.
En: Geraint was inherently full of doubts.
Cy: A oedd y trysor gwirioneddol yn bodoli?
En: Did the real treasure exist?
Cy: Os do, ble?
En: If so, where?
Cy: Roedd y pentref yn ymestyn o'u blaenau fel pen tân, pob tŷ a phob porth yn gyrfai enfawr i'w taflu.
En: The village stretched out before them like a maze, each house and each gate a challenge to throw.
Cy: Serch hynny, penderfynodd i wynebu ei ofnau.
En: Nevertheless, he decided to face his fears.
Cy: Gan ddefnyddio torch a ffagl ei iwn, aeth Geraint i mewn i'r hen dŷ.
En: Using a flashlight and his own torch, Geraint went into the old house.
Cy: Roedd cymylau llwch yn dawnsio fel rhywogaeth ryfedd o flaen ei wyneb.
En: Clouds of dust danced like a strange species before his face.
Cy: Bu Rhiannon yn ei phen boch yn gefnogaeth dawel.
En: Rhiannon was a quiet support nearby.
Cy: Roedd y ffenestri wedi'u torri, a'r pren wedi pydru, gan wneud pob cam yn nyfais.
En: The windows were broken, and the wood had rotted, making every step treacherous.
Cy: Yn sydyn, y tu ôl i ddalfaid canolog yr ystafell, gwelodd rhywbeth anarferol.
En: Suddenly, behind the central mantelpiece of the room, he saw something unusual.
Cy: Roedd y lloriau pren yn dal neu'r peth hynod o'i ôl.
En: The wooden floors were holding something peculiar beneath.
Cy: Geraint cwtogodd a nofelodd droi bwydl bychan.
En: Geraint crouched and managed to pry open a small panel.
Cy: Roedd câs cudd wedi'i selio.
En: There was a sealed hidden case.
Cy: Roedd ei galon yn cymhennu'n gyflym wrth agor y drws dirgel.
En: His heart raced as he opened the secret door.
Cy: Yno roedd yr heirloom, yn ddisglair ac yn ergyd o brofi gydag aur.
En: There lay the heirloom, gleaming and striking in its gold.
Cy: Daliodd Geraint y trysor yn ei ddwylo, ei galon yn llawn balchder a diogelwch.
En: Geraint held the treasure in his hands, his heart full of pride and security.
Cy: Roedd ganddo gysyniad newydd o ei wreiddiau, yn stiward ar hanes y teulu.
En: He had a new understanding of his roots, as a steward of the family history.
Cy: Cymerodd eiliad o fuddiant i ymhyddoli bod wnaeth symud trwy amseroedd du iawn i dorri'r gorffennol â'r presennol.
En: He took a moment of silent reflection, realizing he had traversed through dark times to connect the past with the present.
Cy: Aethant o'r tŷ gyda'r trysor yn ddiogel yn eu clustiau.
En: They left the house with the treasure safely in their possession.
Cy: Roedd Geraint yn teimlo goleuni newydd, heb ei orlymu gan ofn colli ei dreftadaeth.
En: Geraint felt a new lightness, not burdened by the fear of losing his heritage.
Cy: Fe wyrodd y heulwen lawr dros y pentref, fel gwen ddiogelwch.
En: The sunlight beamed down over the village, like a smile of security.
Cy: Roedd hi'n amser iddynt fynd adref, wrth i’r tonnau bylu a gadael eu nodweddion yng nghoed y pentref.
En: It was time for them to go home, as the waves faded and left their impressions in the village trees.
Cy: Gyda hynny, newidiodd Geraint, yn berson mwy hyderus a di-ben draw—a'i daith cysefin tuag at wirionedd eu teulu yn un o'r hanesion sy'n rhoi hedd.
En: With that, Geraint transformed, becoming a more confident and complete person—and his original journey towards the truth of their family became one of the stories that brings peace.

Story Transcript:
Cy: Wrth i gwmwl o ddail hydref blesio'r ysgol, roedd y diwrnod clirio cymunedol yn Ysgol Uwchradd Bangor yn dechrau.
En: As a cloud of autumn leaves graced the school, the community clean-up day at Ysgol Uwchradd Bangor was beginning.
Cy: Roedd y lle yn llawn o fyfyrwyr brwdfrydig, pob un yn cydweithio i wneud gwahaniaeth.
En: The place was full of enthusiastic students, all collaborating to make a difference.
Cy: Ar y lawnt flaen, lle cododd Carys stondin, roedd baner yn hyrwyddo'r Clwb Amgylcheddol yn chwifio yn y gwynt ysgafn.
En: On the front lawn, where Carys had set up a stall, a banner promoting the Environmental Club waved in the gentle breeze.

En: Carys was visibly busy, her bright eyes scanning, making a connection with each individual who came to volunteer.
Cy: Ymhlith y dorf, canfu Rhys, sef myfyriwr tawel, ei hun wedi'i dynnu at yr olygfa.
En: Amidst the crowd, Rhys, a quiet student, found himself drawn to the scene.
Cy: Roedd yn dawel gyda chamera bach yn ei law, a'i lygaid yn chwilio am gyfle delfrydol i dynnu llun.
En: He was silent with a small camera in his hand, his eyes searching for the perfect opportunity to take a picture.
Cy: Er ei fod yn gyndyn i gymryd y cam cyntaf, teimlai y byddai cynnig ei wasanaethau yn gam i fenthycio ei ddoniau ac, o bosib, creu cyfeillgarwch newydd.
En: Although he was hesitant to take the first step, he felt that offering his services would be a step towards lending his talents and possibly creating a new friendship.
Cy: "Hei, Rhys ydy?
En: "Hey, you're Rhys, right?"
Cy: " galwodd Carys, gan wneud iddo stopio yn llwyr.
En: called Carys, making him stop completely.
Cy: Wrth i'r dail ddisgyn, gwelodd fod gan Rhys olygfa unigryw ar gyfer fframio llun.
En: As the leaves fell, she saw that Rhys had a unique perspective for framing a photo.
Cy: "Hoffet ti dynnu lluniau o'r digwyddiad heddiw?
En: "Would you like to take pictures of the event today?
Cy: Gallai hynny ein helpu i hyrwyddo ein gwaith ac annog mwy o bobl i ymuno â'r clwb.
En: That could help us promote our work and encourage more people to join the club."
Cy: "Cymerodd Rhys fôr o hynodrwydd i ystyried, ond gyda gwên fach, cytunodd yn falch.
En: Rhys took a moment of curiosity to consider, but with a small smile, he agreed happily.
Cy: Roedd yn gyfle iddo rannu ei lygad artistig bychan heb deimlo pwysau perfformio cyhoeddus.
En: It was an opportunity for him to share his small artistic view without feeling the pressure of public performance.
Cy: Wrth i'r diwrnod fynd yn ei flaen, gwaith caled.
En: As the day went on, they worked hard.
Cy: Roedden nhw'n hel sbwriel, clirio'r gwrych, a phlannu coed newydd.
En: They gathered litter, cleared the hedges, and planted new trees.
Cy: Mewn eiliad ddoniol, colliodd Carys ei thraed ar lawr mwdlyd a chafodd Rhys ei dal â chamera yn union ar y funud cywir.
En: In a funny moment, Carys lost her footing on the muddy ground, and Rhys caught her with his camera at just the right moment.
Cy: Cyn iddi wybod, roeddent ill dau yn chwerthin yn llon.
En: Before she knew it, they were both laughing heartily.
Cy: "Mae gen i syniad," meddai Rhys, a'r hyder yn tyfu ynddo.
En: "I have an idea," said Rhys, with growing confidence.
Cy: "Beth am i ni gwrdd dros baned o de ar ôl hyn?
En: "How about we meet over a cup of tea after this?
Cy: Gallwn ni drafod syniadau am waith clwb a'm lluniau.
En: We could discuss ideas about the club's work and my photos."
Cy: "Cydsyniodd Carys â gwên fawr, yn gwerthfawrogi'r cyfle i arafu a chynnal perthnasoedd newydd.
En: Carys agreed with a big smile, appreciating the opportunity to slow down and nurture new relationships.
Cy: Roedd hi wedi dysgu bod cyflymder bywyd weithiau yn cuddio'r pethau gwerthfawr.
En: She had learned that the pace of life sometimes hides the valuable things.
Cy: Wrth i'r haul machlud ar ddiwedd y diwrnod clirio, roedd dail yr hydref yn codi a chwympo mewn edmygedd o'r gwaith, ac roedd byd Rhys a Carys wedi newid ychydig ar y diwrnod hwnnw.
En: As the sunset at the end of the clean-up day, the autumn leaves rose and fell in admiration of the work, and the worlds of Rhys and Carys had changed a bit that day.
Cy: Rhoddodd Carys fwy o sylw i gofio'r gwlithen wenedig tra y caniataodd Rhys i glirio llwch malu ar efel caredig arbennig.
En: Carys paid more attention to remembering the passing snail while Rhys allowed himself to clear the dust of grinding on a special anvil of kindness.
Cy: Roeddent yn ddau yn ddiniwed, ond yn falch, gan wybod eu bod yn cychwyn ar siwrnai newydd gyda'u gilydd.
En: They were both innocent, yet content, knowing they were embarking on a new journey together.
