Story Transcript:

Cy: Ar ôl diwrnod hir o deithio, roedd Emyr a Carys yn sefyll ar lannau wyntog Ynys Sgomer.
En: After a long day of traveling, Emyr and Carys stood on the windy shores of Ynys Sgomer.

Cy: Mae'r awyr yn las, y môr yn rhuo, a'r gwynt yn chwythu trwy'r blodau gwyllt lliwgar.
En: The sky was blue, the sea roared, and the wind blew through the colorful wildflowers.

Cy: Roedd yr haf yn ei anterth, ac fe ddechreuodd Emyr wahodd Carys i bicnic awyr agored ar yr ynys.
En: Summer was at its peak, and Emyr began to invite Carys to an outdoor picnic on the island.

Cy: Dechreuodd y dydd wrth iddyn nhw setlo ar y llwybr, carreg wedi'i dal ar i fyny yn llithro i'w traed.
En: The day began as they settled on the path, a stone held upwards slipping under their feet.

Cy: Roedd Emyr yn dal ei gamera'n dynn, barod i ddal y perffeithrwydd o'r adar 'maen'—y morloi 'maer.'
En: Emyr held his camera tightly, ready to capture the perfection of the 'maen' birds—the 'maer' seals.

Cy: Roedd y felancolîs Carys yn chwilio am stori, antur o ryw fath sy'n dal hanfod dydd haf cyfnodol.
En: The melancholic Carys was searching for a story, an adventure of some kind that captured the essence of a fleeting summer day.

Cy: “Edrych ar yr adar 'maer',” meddai Carys, ei llygaid yn dechrau chwilio am ddefodau'r natur.
En: "Look at the 'maer' birds," Carys said, her eyes beginning to search for nature's rituals.

Cy: Ond ni pharhaodd y tawelwch yn hir; dechreuodd cwmwl trymlwythog ddu uno dros ben yr ynys.
En: But the silence didn't last long; a heavy black cloud began to merge over the island.

Cy: Roedd y gwynt yn gryfhau, y môr yn gyforiog.
En: The wind was strengthening, the sea was brimming.

Cy: Emyr, yn disgwyl cwmwl du, penderfynodd aros.
En: Emyr, anticipating the black cloud, decided to stay.

Cy: "Mae'n rhaid i mi," dywedodd, "mae'r cyfle i ddal y llun perffaith nawr neu byth."
En: "I must," he said, "the chance to capture the perfect picture is now or never."

Cy: Roedd Carys, serch ei bryder, yn cytuno i aros.
En: Despite her concern, Carys agreed to stay.

Cy: Efallai bod y storm yn dwyn y stori ei hun.
En: Perhaps the storm carried a story of its own.

Cy: Roedd tawelwch cyn y storm yn teimlo'n drwm.
En: The calm before the storm felt heavy.

Cy: Roedd y gwynt yn rhuo, a thonnau'n cyfod ond roedd y diffyg heddwch wedi creu tensiwn.
En: The wind roared, and waves rose, but the lack of peace created tension.

Cy: Yna, rhuthrodd y gwynt, yn chwythu'r storm i mewn â glaw a mellt.
En: Then, the wind rushed, blowing the storm in with rain and lightning.

Cy: Y foment olaf, gyda mellt goleuo cefnlen ddramatig, dynnodd Emyr lun.
En: In the last moment, with lightning illuminating a dramatic backdrop, Emyr took a picture.

Cy: Daeth yn y llun orau ohonyn nhw i gyd; aderyn 'maer' yn hedfan yn erbyn cwmwl du, a theyrnasiad natur yn llawn byw.
En: It became the best picture of them all; a 'maer' bird flying against a black cloud, and nature's reign full of life.

Cy: Carys, yn cofnodi'r profiad ei hun, sylweddolais bod harddwch a storïau ein byd yn aml yn ddigymell.
En: Carys, recording her own experience, realized that the beauty and stories of our world are often spontaneous.

Cy: Wrth i'r heulwen euraidd lifo dros ben y mynyddoedd, a'r storm yn cilio, fe ddaeth tawelwch i mewn.
En: As the golden sunlight flowed over the mountaintops and the storm withdrew, calm returned.

Cy: Roedd y llwybr yn ôl i'r tir mawr yn ymddangos, ac er eu bod wedi sychu, roedd gwen ar wynebau'r ddau.
En: The path back to the mainland appeared, and though they had dried, smiles were on both of their faces.

Cy: Emyr, yn teimlo sicrwydd newydd, gwybododd na allai unrhyw beth arall fod mor werthfawr â'r llun oedd eisoes ganddo.
En: Emyr, feeling a new certainty, knew nothing else could be as valuable as the picture he already had.

Cy: Ac i Carys, roedd y stori yn cydio; yr hyn a ddysgodda hi oedd bod y bywyd gwirioneddol yn digwydd pan fyddwn ni'n agored i'r ansicrwydd.
En: And for Carys, the story took hold; what she learned was that true life happens when we are open to uncertainty.

Cy: A dyma roi llonydd i Ynys Sgomer unwaith eto.
En: And so, Ynys Sgomer was peaceful once again.

Cy: Ond roedd y rhodres, y stori drwch unigryw a'r cyfarwyddiadur byddech o hyd yn sibrwd eu hatgofion yn llygaid a geiriau'r ddau, wrth iddynt adael y môr tu ôl.
En: But the thrill, the unique story, and the fleeting encounters would forever whisper their memories in the eyes and words of the two as they left the sea behind.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Yng nghanol yr haf, roedd y gwres yn gorwedd fel mantell borffor dros Abbey Dingle.
En: In the middle of summer, the heat lay like a purple cloak over Abbey Dingle.

Cy: Llecyn cudd yn y dyffryn, wedi’i lenwi â choedwig drwchus ac yn llawn blodau lliwgar.
En: A hidden spot in the valley, filled with a dense forest and vibrant flowers.

Cy: Yr oedd hon yn lle o hudoliaeth, y gwyddai Gwyn amdano ers yn blentyn, ond eto yn llawn dirgelion i’r rhai a fentrodd ymhellach nag y dylent.
En: This was a place of enchantment, known to Gwyn since childhood, yet still full of mysteries for those who ventured further than they should.

Cy: Roedd Gwyn, bachgen unig ac yn dawel, wastad wedi cael dirnadaeth o antur ond prin oedd y cyfle i fanteisio arni ym myd prysur bob dydd.
En: Gwyn, a quiet and lonely boy, always had a sense of adventure but rarely the opportunity to act on it in the busy everyday world.

Cy: Dros yr wythnos ddiwethaf, roedd Gwyn wedi sylwi ar frathiad dirgel yn datblygu ar ei fraich.
En: Over the past week, Gwyn had noticed a mysterious bite developing on his arm.

Cy: Roedd y croen yn goch ac yn cosi’n annuwiol.
En: The skin was red and unbearably itchy.

Cy: Wrth i wahanol eli a throsglwyr fethu ei wellhau, dechreuodd ofn ddyndod i’w feddwl.
En: As various ointments and treatments failed to heal it, fear began to creep into his mind.

Cy: A allai fod gan y digwyddiad hwn rhywbeth i’w wneud gyda’i daith ddiweddar i gornel anghysbell o’r dingle?
En: Could this incident have anything to do with his recent journey to a remote corner of the dingle?

Cy: Roedd llawer o straeon wedi eu troi ynglŷn â lleoedd nad oeddent i'w daplu yma am hynny.
En: Many stories circulated about places not to be trifled with there.

Cy: Ond roedd Gwyn wedi penderfynu wynebu’i ofnau ac archwilio’n ddyfnach.
En: But Gwyn had decided to face his fears and explore further.

Cy: Felly, aeth Gwyn allan eto i’r dyffryn.
En: So, Gwyn went out to the valley again.

Cy: Roedd Siân a Rhys, ei gyfeillion gorau, yn cynnig ymuno ag ef, ond roedd Gwyn ar fin cychwyn ar daith bersonol.
En: Siân and Rhys, his best friends, offered to join him, but Gwyn was on the verge of embarking on a personal journey.

Cy: Roedd e’n teimlo’r angen i ddod o hyd i’r atebion ar ei ben ei hun.
En: He felt the need to find the answers on his own.

Cy: Roedd eu brwdfrydedd yn cynnig cysur, ond nid oedd Gwyn yn sicr eu bod ef yn barod i droseddu’r rheolau.
En: Their enthusiasm offered comfort, but Gwyn wasn’t sure they were ready to break the rules.

Cy: Roedd y ddiwrnod yn boeth, heulog.
En: The day was hot and sunny.

Cy: Wrth gerdded, teimlai’r dŵr oer o afon fach yn lleddfu ei grychwr.
En: As he walked, the cold water from a small river soothed his skin.

Cy: Yna, wrth droi cornel, darganfu faes o hydreiddlon o flodau gwyllt na welodd ef o’r blaen.
En: Then, turning a corner, he discovered a field of wildflowers he had never seen before.

Cy: Eu persawr yn drwm, eu lliwiau yn troi gyda’r heulwen.
En: Their scent was heavy, their colors shifting with the sunlight.

Cy: Gwyllai rhywfaint, ond wrth astudio’r blodau yn fwy penodol, cofiodd Gwyn sôn am eu pwerau iachaol unigryw yn hen lyfrau meddygon tir.
En: He faltered a bit, but as he studied the flowers more specifically, Gwyn recalled hearing about their unique healing powers in old herbalist books.

Cy: Heb betruso, casglodd Gwyn rai o’r blodau a dychwelodd adref.
En: Without hesitation, Gwyn gathered some of the flowers and returned home.

Cy: Carodd ei fam ddail y blodau, cael hyd i'r hylif a rhwbio ar y lle poenus.
En: His mother prepared the flower leaves, extracted the liquid, and rubbed it on the painful area.

Cy: Yn araf bach, daeth llonyddwch i feddwl a chorff Gwyn, gan weld y clefyd annysgwyliadwy yn encilio.
En: Slowly, calmness came to Gwyn’s mind and body, as he watched the unexpected ailment retreat.

Cy: Mae’r dirgelwch wedi ei ddatrys, drwy gyfrwng hud anesgrifiadwy’r dingle.
En: The mystery had been solved, through the indescribable magic of the dingle.

Cy: Yn rhyfeddod yr adferiad hwnnw, sylweddolodd Gwyn ei newidiadau.
En: In the wonder of this recovery, Gwyn realized his transformations.

Cy: Roedd yn deall pwysigrwydd ei ysbryd chwilfrydig, yn dysgu cerdded llwybrau newydd a mentro y tu hwnt i’r cyfforddiol.
En: He understood the importance of his curious spirit, learning to tread new paths and venture beyond the comfortable.

Cy: Trwy ddewrder a dawn, roedd wedi ailddarganfod herwra hir angof—un a fyddai’n paratoi esgyniad newydd ym mywyd Gwyn, bellach, nid yn unig fel bachgen yn chwilio am atebion, ond fel pennaf archwiliwr ei fyd ei hun.
En: Through bravery and skill, he had rediscovered a long-forgotten adventure—one that would prepare a new ascent in Gwyn’s life, now, not just as a boy seeking answers, but as the chief explorer of his own world.

En: She was pursuing the perfect picture for an important exhibition in the near future.

Cy: Roedd hi'n frwd o bondigrybwyll, ond roedd amser yn mynd yn brin ac roedd awyrgylch newidiol y tywydd yn ei chynhyrfu.
En: She was extremely enthusiastic, but time was running short, and the changing weather was unsettling her.

Cy: Wrth fynd heibio, sylwodd Gareth ar Eleri yn ymdrechu â'i thripod ymhlith y blodau gwyllt.
En: As he passed by, Gareth noticed Eleri struggling with her tripod among the wildflowers.

Cy: "Helo," meddai, "Ydych chi'n saethu adar? Mae adar brodorol godidog yma."
En: "Hello," he said, "Are you shooting birds? There are magnificent native birds here."

Cy: Cododd Eleri lygad gleision pryderus a chyfarfod â'i edrychgarwch cynnes.
En: Eleri raised her worried blue eyes and met his warm gaze.

Cy: "Ydw," atebodd, "mae'n anodd cael hyd i'r cydbwysedd cywir. Mae angen rhywle tawelach."
En: "Yes," she replied, "it's hard to find the right balance. I need somewhere quieter."

Cy: Roedd ganddo wybodaeth am y llwybrau ac adnabod mannau cudd lle gallai adar prin gael eu gweld.
En: He had knowledge of the paths and knew hidden spots where rare birds could be seen.

Cy: Fel helpwr, roedd cyfle i osgoi ei bryderon ei hun.
En: As a helper, it was a chance to avoid his own worries.

Cy: Ac yn sydyn, roedd dau estron yn troi'n gyfeillion.
En: And suddenly, two strangers turned into friends.

Cy: Wrth gerdded ochr yn ochr, dechreuodd Eleri siarad am ei breuddwydion.
En: As they walked side by side, Eleri began to talk about her dreams.

Cy: Roedd y diddordeb a'i hedmygiad yn amlwg yn llawn yng ngofres ei llais.
En: Her interest and admiration were apparent, full in the timbre of her voice.

Cy: Dechruodd Gareth agor am ei galedi diweddar, a thrwy gydweithrediad a chymdeithasu, dechreuodd balm cymdeithas leddfu'i boen.
En: Gareth began to open up about his recent hardships, and through cooperation and companionship, the balm of society began to ease his pain.

Cy: Yn fuan, safodd y ddau mewn cysgod coeden ger clogwyn.
En: Soon, the two stood in the shade of a tree near a cliff.

Cy: Yn sydyn, glywodd Eleri sŵn y gwynt a gweld aderyn mewn lliw prin euraidd a glas yn hedfan yn uchel.
En: Suddenly, Eleri heard the sound of the wind and saw a bird in rare golden and blue colors flying high.

Cy: Yr eiliad berffaith!
En: The perfect moment!

Cy: Cafodd hi lun syfrdanol; roedd hi'n llwyddiant oedd hi wedi dyheu amdano.
En: She captured an astounding photo; it was the success she had longed for.

Cy: Roedd Gareth, ynghyd â hi, yn edmygu'r rhyfeddod.
En: Gareth, along with her, admired the wonder.

Cy: Pan lwyddodd Eleri i anfon y llun at yr arddangosfa, roedd lulus.
En: When Eleri managed to send the photo to the exhibition, there was a triumph.

Cy: Ni allai Gareth ddim helpu ond ystyried ei lawenydd newydd yng nghwmni Eleri.
En: Gareth couldn't help but consider his newfound joy in Eleri's company.

Cy: Roedd fel petai'r adar wedi agor dimensiwn newydd iddo.
En: It was as if the birds had opened a new dimension for him.

Cy: Dilynodd cyfnod o lawenydd a bodlonrwydd i'r ddau yn ogystal â pherthynas newydd.
En: A period of joy and contentment followed for both, along with a new relationship.

Cy: Daw haf i ben yn Sir Benfro, ond nid yw'r ddechreuad newydd yn ddod i ben i Eleri a Gareth.
En: Summer comes to an end in Sir Benfro, but the new beginning doesn’t end for Eleri and Gareth.

Cy: Roedd gan y ddau, gyda'u gilydd, ddechreuad newydd, llawn optimistiaeth.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Yn nghanol haf brodwaith hardd Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri, roedd cyffro'n fridiaeth o dan yr haul.
En: In the middle of the beautiful tapestry of Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri, excitement brewed beneath the sun.

Cy: Darlun o brydferthwch gwyllt a throellog oedd yma, yn frith o ddyffrynnoedd gwyrdd, llynnoedd teblyglud a gweledigaethau eang.
En: It was a picture of wild, twisting beauty, speckled with green valleys, tranquil lakes, and expansive vistas.

Cy: Doedd lle tebyg i Eryri yn y byd i Gareth, yn weithiwr cadwraeth profiadol gyda chariad pur i natur.
En: There was no place like Eryri in the world for Gareth, an experienced conservation worker with a pure love for nature.

Cy: Ond cuddiodd ofn o dan ei wên stoicaidd - ofn bod ei ymdrechion ddim yn ddigon yn erbyn newid hinsawdd.
En: But beneath his stoic smile lay a fear - the fear that his efforts were not enough against climate change.

Cy: Roedd Rhiannon newydd ymuno â'r tîm, wyddonydd ifanc, llawn brwdfrydedd.
En: Rhiannon had just joined the team, a young scientist full of enthusiasm.

Cy: Doedd hi ddim wedi'i phlesio gan dulliau traddodiadol Gareth ac eisiau rhoi cynnig ar ffyrdd newydd a chwyldroadol.
En: She wasn't impressed with Gareth's traditional methods and wanted to try new and revolutionary ways.

Cy: Ar ben hynny, roedd Elin, gwirfoddolwr di-lefydd, yma i ddianc rhag ei gofidiau personol a chael cysur yn nhirwedd yr Eryri.
En: Additionally, Elin, a volunteer with no fixed address, was here to escape her personal troubles and find solace in the landscape of Eryri.

Cy: Gesgodd Gareth y llu i weithio, gyda meddwl cryn ynglŷn â phlannu a diogelu'r rhywogaethau planhigion sy'n wynebau diflaniad.
En: Gareth got the crew working, thoughtfully focusing on planting and protecting plant species facing extinction.

Cy: Pwffio daeth Rhiannon tuag ato un diwrnod, yn gynnig dulliau newydd.
En: One day, Rhiannon came bustling over, proposing new methods.

Cy: Roedd ei syniadau'n swnio'n beryglus i Gareth, perygl o ddifrod i’r gwaith a'r planhigion.
En: Her ideas sounded dangerous to Gareth, a risk of damage to the work and the plants.

Cy: Roedd y tywydd, fel arfer, yn anrhagweladwy yn yr ardal, gan ychwanegu at yr heriau.
En: The weather, as usual, was unpredictable in the area, adding to the challenges.
