    Story Transcript:

    Cy: Roedd Dylan yn syllu allan o ffenestr y bws, ei lygaid yn dilyn y golygfeydd hyfryd o Barc Cenedlaethol Eryri wrth i’r cerbyd symud yn araf.
    En: Dylan was staring out of the bus window, his eyes following the beautiful scenery of the Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri as the vehicle moved slowly.

    Cy: Roedd yn gyfnod cynnar o’r gwanwyn, a gwelodd wrth ei ochr wenynen yn hofran o’r blodau a llwybrau troellog yn llawn o fywyd newydd.
    En: It was the early season of spring, and he saw beside him a bee hovering over the flowers and winding paths full of new life.

    Cy: Roedd y gwaith tritre yn sicr o fod yn gyfle i gryfhau’r tîm, ond roedd yn bryderus, yn bennaf sut i agor at ei dîm.
    En: The team-building exercise was sure to be an opportunity to strengthen the team, but he was anxious, mainly about how to open up to his team.

    Cy: Yn ei chadair drws nesaf, roedd Gwen yn edmygu’r golygfeydd, ei chalon yn curo ychydig yn gyflymach o gyffro a nerfusrwydd.
    En: In the seat next to him, Gwen was admiring the views, her heart beating a bit faster with excitement and nervousness.

    Cy: Roedd hi’n aelod newydd, ac er ei bod hi’n uchelgeisiol a llawn brwdfrydedd, roedd y grŵp yn ymddangos mor agos, gyda hi ar ymylon.
    En: She was a new member, and although she was ambitious and full of enthusiasm, the group seemed so close, with her on the fringes.

    Cy: Byddwn nhw’n cyrraedd y gwersyll eisoes, sef y man gosgedd rhwng y mynyddoedd.
    En: They would soon arrive at the camp, which was the sheltered area between the mountains.

    Cy: Heblaw am sîon y gwanwyn, roedd awyrgylch tawel yn esmwythhau nerfau'r tîm.
    En: Except for the sounds of spring, a serene atmosphere soothed the team's nerves.

    Cy: Wedi cyrraedd, penderfynodd Dylan wneud cam sydyn a hoffus; daeth y syniad o hike ar y llwybrau yr un cyn iddo â phawb ddod at eu gilydd mewn bron i siom dros iddo.
    En: Upon arrival, Dylan decided to make a sudden and amiable move; the idea of a hike on the trails came to him before everyone gathered, almost as a disappointment to him.

    Cy: "Beth am mynd am dro?" gofynnodd Dylan, ei lais ond yn uwch na sibrwd wrth i’r clwstwr o’i gwmpas sythu.
    En: "How about going for a walk?" Dylan asked, his voice barely above a whisper as the cluster around him straightened.

    Cy: Roedd Gwen yn ansicr, ond wrth weld y wên uchel ar wyneb Dylan, penderfynodd rhoi tro arni.
    En: Gwen was uncertain, but upon seeing the broad smile on Dylan's face, she decided to give it a try.

    Cy: Roedd yn brasgamu i ddal y grŵp, gan obeithio mewnblyg y byddai’n well gwneud rhan o’r tîm.
    En: She hurried to catch up with the group, inwardly hoping it would be better to be part of the team.

    Cy: Tra’n dringo’r llwybrau gwyrddlas, dechreuodd y môr bach o fwdadaiadau a sgwrsio symud yn drysor o amgylch y grŵp.
    En: While climbing the green paths, the little sea of chatter and conversation began to treasure around the group.

    Cy: Dylan a Gwen yn araf gan yr arweinyddiaeth a'r newydd-ddyfodiad, a etholodd i brofiad cerdded yn dawel.
    En: Dylan and Gwen were slowly led by the leadership and the newcomer, who opted for a quiet walking experience.

    Cy: Roedd Dylan, yn llawn paratoi fydd y natur fydd effeithiol yn ei broffesiwn planedig o gyfarwyddiadau, cofio ei bwnc cerbyd wrth ddefnyddio: "Llywodraethwyr gwynt yn ystod y gwanwyn."
    En: Dylan, full of preparation for how nature would be effective in his planned profession of guidance, remembered his vehicle subject: "Wind governors in the spring."

    Cy: Yn annisgwyl, cododd cymylau a gwlith.
    En: Unexpectedly, clouds and a mist rose.

    Cy: "Wel, mae’n edrych fel bod angen i ni ddod o hyd i lywodraethdrai," cyhoeddodd Dylan, fel chwerman eithgadol mawr i dawelu'r sefyllfa cyffrous.
    En: "Well, it looks like we need to find some cover," announced Dylan, as a big collective laugh helped to calm the exciting situation.

    Cy: Gwelsant cwt carreg.
    En: They found a stone hut.

    Cy: Cysgodol a dibynadwy.
    En: Sheltered and reliable.

    Cy: Roedd pawb yn croesawu'r hafan o’r glaw.
    En: Everyone welcomed the haven from the rain.

    Cy: Wrth i’r glaw gwasgaru’n ddringol, roedd sŵn y storïau’n llenwi’r unochogion.
    En: As the rain gradually dispersed, the sound of stories filled the cozy space.

    Cy: Cyfrannodd Dylan, tra gwenai’n fân wrth Gwen datgelu eu huchelgeisiau.
    En: Dylan contributed, while smiling subtly as Gwen revealed her ambitions.

    Cy: Dechreuodd Gwen deimlo’n rhan o’r tîm, nid yn cael ei hychwanegu i bob peth.
    En: Gwen began to feel like part of the team, not just an addition to everything.

    Cy: Ar ôl i’r storm dawelu, mae’n eu gadael gyda chynhesrwydd mewnol newydd.
    En: After the storm calmed, it left them with a new internal warmth.

    Cy: Roedd Dylan, a lwyddodd i wynebu ei ddirniad, yn cael bod cam y gall ddechrau allan wasanaethu cyfarfyddiad gwych i annwyl.
    En: Dylan, who managed to face his reservation, realized that taking that step could serve a wonderful meeting for the dear ones.

    Cy: Roedd Gwen yn hapus, cynnar dda y tîm a bod o Lafr euraid yn ei chalon o gyrra.
    En: Gwen was happy, feeling a kinship with the team that brought a golden shine to her heart from memories.

    Cy: Symud ymlaen, roedd Dylan yn teimlo bod gallu i fod yn fwy cysylltiedig yn annog yr agosatrwydd y gallwch ei dynnu, gan ddangos bod y cadwyni personol gwyn o goderd ac arwder yn allweddol i gryfhau dulliau arbennig.
    En: Moving forward, Dylan felt that being more connected encouraged the closeness you can derive, showing that the personal chains of vulnerability and bravery are key to strengthening special approaches.

    Cy: Roedd Gwen, ar y llaw arall, yn gweld y twll i mewn ei chalon ac yn disgleirio mwy fywyd gyda’r tîm.
    En: Gwen, on the other hand, saw the hole in her heart fill and shined more life with the team.

    Cy: Ar ddiwedd y diwrnod, fel roedd yr haul yn machlud yn y pellter gyda’r mynyddoedd gerdded rowndly, roedd Dylan yn sefyll a Gwen wrth ei ochr, yn adlewyrchu: yng nghanol Eryri a mwynhau ei harddwch, cafodd y tîm le o dan eang drysor gwerthfawr.
    En: At the end of the day, as the sun set in the distance with the mountains circling around, Dylan stood with Gwen by his side, reflecting: in the heart of Eryri and enjoying its beauty, the team found a place under a wide, valuable treasure.

    Cy: Ar fore crisp bore Mawrth, gyda'r awyr yn glir dros Barc Cenedlaethol Eryri, roedd Emrys, Carys, a Dafydd yn barod am antur.
    En: On a crisp Tuesday morning, with the sky clear over the Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri, Emrys, Carys, and Dafydd were ready for an adventure.

    Cy: Roedd awyrgylch arbennig yn y mynyddoedd, gyda'r eira yn dal i gael ei wasgaru dros ben y copaon, ond roedd heulwen gwan yr Ymson Disglair Dydd Gwyl Dewi yn cyfrannu at fwynhad i'r criw ar eu taith.
    En: There was a special atmosphere in the mountains, with snow still scattered over the peaks, but the weak sunshine of St. David's Day's Bright Hymn contributed to the crew's enjoyment on their journey.

    Cy: Emrys, â phrofiad helaeth o gerdded tir garw'r Eryri, oedd eu canllaw.
    En: Emrys, with extensive experience walking the rugged terrain of Eryri, was their guide.

    Cy: Teimlai gyfrifoldeb enfawr heddiw, nid yn unig i arwain ei ffrindiau, ond hefyd i gyrraedd y copa fel teyrnged i Dewi Sant.

    Cy: Roedd ei fryd ar wneud y diwrnod yn un arbennig.
    En: He was determined to make the day special.

    En: The three moved well for hours, appreciating the stunning views and fresh air.

    Cy: Yn sydyn, roedd llethr serth y llwybr a ymgorfforwyd yn her newydd iddynt.
    En: Suddenly, the steep slope of the path integrated into a new challenge for them.

    Cy: Ac nid hir y bu cyn i draed cwmpas Dafydd lithro.
    En: It wasn't long before Dafydd's steady feet slipped.

    Cy: Gwaeddodd Carys mewn braw wrth iddi weld ei ffrind yn syrthio.
    En: Carys screamed in fright as she saw her friend fall.

    Cy: 'Dafydd!
    En: 'Dafydd!'

    Cy: ' galwodd, a'i llais yn llawn pryder.
    En: she called, her voice full of worry.

    Cy: Roedd Dafydd wedi taro ei goes yn wael ac nid oedd yn gallu sefyll.
    En: Dafydd had injured his leg badly and couldn't stand.

    Cy: Roedd yr amgylchiadau beryglus a’r tywydd yn dechrau dirywio.
    En: The dangerous circumstances and deteriorating weather were beginning to take their toll.

    Cy: Roedd Emrys yn wynebu penderfyniad anodd.
    En: Emrys faced a difficult decision.

    Cy: Dylai'r daith barhau,, i gyflawni'r nod uchaf, neu a ddylent ddychwelyd am ddiogelwch Dafydd?
    En: Should the journey continue to achieve the ultimate goal, or should they return for Dafydd's safety?

    Cy: Roedd galwad i Brif Gyrch ar y lluched, ond roedd yn gwybod na fyddai'r cymorth yn cyrraedd yn ddigon cyflym.
    En: A call was made to Prif Gyrch on the shortwave radio, but he knew that help would not arrive quickly enough.

    Cy: 'Byddwn yn eich cael chi i lawr, Dafydd,' meddai Emrys, yn benderfynol.
    En: 'I will get you down, Dafydd,' Emrys said, determined.

    Cy: Gyda chymorth Carys, cynnau trysor glanydd - cangen wedi'i dorri a sbriws i wneud cyfrwng cario - gwnaethant cynnal Dafydd yn ofalus a lletygar.
    En: With Carys's help, they constructed a makeshift stretcher - a branch broken off and spruce to make a carrying aid - and carefully supported and accommodated Dafydd.

    Cy: Roedd bob cam yn boenus iddo, ond roedd balchder yn ei ffrindiau yng ngwynt nifer o ryfeddu o gymhelliadaberthyn i cefn gwlad ac aner.
    En: Each step was painful for him, but there was pride in his friends amidst the awe of deep rural tenacity and kindness.

    Cy: Wrth iddynt fynd yn ôl i lawr mynydd, y gwynt yn codi a llenni glaw mân yn ffurig, cymerodd Emrys yr awenau.
    En: As they descended the mountain, the wind picking up and a thin veil of rain forming, Emrys took the lead.

    Cy: Arosodd ei botensial ond cafodd ddysgwyr i roi pobl cyn cynlluniau.
    En: He set aside his aspirations and learned to put people before plans.

    Cy: Dysgodd ei bedigwm tuag at Dewi Sant wedi'i wyrdroi ac ei herio - nac isen i ennill y copa ‘rhely categories yn y rws' yn dilyn corff mor ofalus tuag at dynerwch.
    En: His paradigm towards Dewi Sant was twisted and challenged - they didn't need to win the summit at the cost of potentially losing a friend.

    Cy: Gwnaeth hên aur trwy’r dringgyw, ond pan gyrhaeddon nhw’r pen draw, crio'n uchel o ogoniant - mewn awyrgylch arferol, roedd cyfeillgarwch go iawn wedi'i ganfod.
    En: They made golden memories through the journey, but when they reached the bottom, they cried out in triumph - in a usual atmosphere, true friendship had been found.

    Cy: Gan fawr o henau a charedigrwydd newydd gofynnodd seren Emrys wrth i Carys gwasgais taliadau calonnog y dirywiadau isel: 'Dyma fy modd ag ydyw, bod bodau'r adnoddau mwyaf cyfaillgar.
    En: With much laughter and newfound kindness, Emrys asked as Carys offered heartfelt embraces amid the lowland challenges: 'This is the way it should be, being the greatest resource as friends.'

    Cy: 'Mae Emrys, Carys a Dafydd, erbyn eu dychwelyd, wedi'u hailgysylltu â'r gwerthoedd gwirioneddol - dealltwriaeth newydd o saith prif ddyletswydd - unwaith gweledigaeth gyda dathleni eleni bydd Dewi Sant - bodd llawer i'n cymhelliant a ddewiswyd dros fusnesoldeb.
    En: Emrys, Carys, and Dafydd, upon their return, reconnected with the true values - a new understanding of seven principal duties - once a vision with this year's celebrations of Dewi Sant - a preference for our chosen motivation over mere business.

    Cy: Rhundai Dewi Sant oedd sicrwydd ar blant gwaith caled y mynyddoedd, a bu Dewi yn uneminedd llwyr, nid gymaint yn niweidio'r un peth - eu yw pob llwyddiant dan naws bod corf cyn y ffordd.
    En: Dewi Sant was a symbol of assurance for the hardworking children of the mountains, and Dewi was an absolute beacon, not causing harm to the same thing - their every success was shadowed under the belief that camaraderie comes before the path.

    Cy: Roedd yn ei ffordd ei hun yr hyn a gellir dymuno yn rheolaeth ar Letholaeth aniweiriol.
    En: In his own way, he symbolized what one might wish for in guidance over wayward ambition.

    En: Carys and Emrys sold everything.

    Cy: Mynediad newydd oedd o fywyd oedd i Emrys.
    En: For Emrys, it was a new chapter in life.

    Cy: “Dysgais i fod yn hyderus,” meddai, y llygaid yn disgleirio â balchder.
    En: "I learned to be confident," he said, eyes shining with pride.

    Cy: “Ond hefyd, dysgais i dy ymddiried,” atebodd Carys.
    En: "But also, I learned to trust you," replied Carys.

    Cy: Roedd y ddau yn symud o safle, y camau wrth symud yn syml, wrth wyro tuag at y fferm.
    En: The two moved side by side, their steps simple, as they leaned towards the farm.

    Cy: Roedd y teithio’n parhau, ond roedd y teulu'n fwy agos wedyn.
    En: The journey continued, but the family was closer than ever.

    Cy: Ac felly y daeth i ben i Sul Sant Ddewi, gyda’r teulu yn fwy cyd-atblygethu mewn ymwybyddiaeth newydd.

    Cy: Ar ddiwrnod braf o wanwyn, roedd fferm fach pentrefol yng Nghymru yn llawn bywyd a hwyl.
    En: On a fine spring day, a small village farm in Cymru was full of life and fun.

    Cy: Roedd e'n edrych ymlaen at ddangos ei fferm gain.
    En: He was looking forward to showcasing his lovely farm.

    Cy: Roedd Carys, sydd yn angerddol dros amaethyddiaeth gynaliadwy, wedi dod i wirfoddoli, yn awyddus i ddysgu am arferion newydd i'w defnyddio yn ei phrosiect gardd gymunedol bach.

    Story Transcript:

    Cy: Ym mlygedd nos gwanwyn, roedd Gwenyth yn gallu clywed sŵn y cyfrifiaduron a’r bobl yn siarad o'i hamgylch yn Urban Jungle Café.
    En: In the spring night air, Gwenyth could hear the hum of computers and people talking around her in the Urban Jungle Café.

    Cy: Roedd plantiau crog a muriau lliwgar yn creu awyrgylch cynnes a llachar.
    En: Hanging plants and colorful walls created a warm and bright atmosphere.

    Cy: Am wythnosau, roedd hi wedi bod yn teimlo’n sownd yn ei gwaith graffeg; syched am ysbrydoliaeth.
    En: For weeks, she had been feeling stuck in her graphic design work; thirsty for inspiration.

    Cy: Roedd yr antur o amgylch y byd ond yn fyw yng nghanol y caffi.
    En: The adventure around the world was alive only in the center of the cafe.

    Cy: A dyna pryd y deffrodd y sŵn o gyfarwyddyd annisgwyl wrth i'r drws agor.
    En: And that's when the unexpected sound of familiar direction startled her as the door opened.

    Cy: Eurig! Roeddent wedi bod yn ffrindiau coleg flynyddoedd yn ôl.
    En: Eurig! They had been college friends years ago.

    Cy: Roedd golwg egnïol ar Ei wyneb wrth iddo syllu drwy’r cwmwl steilistaidd o goffi.
    En: There was an energetic look on his face as he peered through the stylistic cloud of coffee.

    Cy: "Gwnewch chi gredu!" cyfarchodd Gwenyth, ei llais yn mynd yn llawen.
    En: "Can you believe it!" greeted Gwenyth, her voice turning joyful.

    Cy: "Eurig! Ble wyt ti wedi bod dipyn bach?"
    En: "Eurig! Where have you been all this time?"

    Cy: "Llofarian 'ma gyd," chwarddodd Eurig, yn curo ei bag gyda'i traws.
    En: "Loitering here and there," laughed Eurig, tapping his bag with his hand.

    Cy: Trodd Gwenyth tuag at Eurig gyda gwên, gan adael ei thraed bras ar lawr.
    En: Gwenyth turned towards Eurig with a smile, leaving her sturdy feet on the floor.

    Cy: "Sut mae bywyd yn ôl yng Nghaerdydd wedi’r holl bererindodau?"
    En: "How’s life back in Cardiff after all the pilgrimages?"

    Cy: Cymrodd Eurig ei le mewn cadair ymaith, yn siglo’n oesol o nôs gogwych i dragwyddoldeb.
    En: Eurig took his place in a distant chair, swaying from golden dusk to eternity.

    Cy: "Rywethr! Roedd y teithio yna’n ardderchog, ond mae'n teimlad newydd dychwelyd.
    En: "Goodness! The traveling was splendid, but it's a new feeling to return.

    Cy: Yn gryf, yn rhyfeddol. Teimlo'n anghysbell."
    En: Strong, remarkable. It feels distant."

    Cy: "A fi'n meddwl fy mod i mewn y drefn," meddai Gwenyth yn ddigalon.
    En: "And I thought I was in the routine," said Gwenyth disheartened.

    Cy: Roedd hi wedi bod yn gweithio’r un swyddi am flynyddoedd, heb neidio gweithiareang.
    En: She had been doing the same jobs for years without taking bold steps.

    Cy: Rhoddodd Eurig ysgytwad â’i awenoleiddio ochrol i Gwenyth.
    En: Eurig gave a sideways nudge of inspiration to Gwenyth.

    Cy: "Mae’r newid yn rhywbeth rydym ni erioed wedi cael….”
    En: "Change is something we’ve never fully embraced…."

    Cy: Wrth sgwrsio, meddyliai am y bwysau oedd ar eu hysgwyddau.
    En: As they chatted, they thought about the pressure weighing on their shoulders.

    Cy: Dechreuodd Gwenyth draethiad siarad am ei hanes, tan y cyrhaeddodd y llwyth gwerddon.
    En: Gwenyth began a speech about her past, until she reached the green oasis.

    Cy: "Beth am ddwyn ymlaen si i amrywio fyddai'n cynnau'r fflam y tu mewn?"
    En: "How about we bring forward some variety that would ignite the flame within?"

    Cy: Llithrodd Eurig y cwpanaid i’w hollol newydd, a llonni hefyd yn berchen delwedd o’i ddigwyddiad enwog ar y gweill.
    En: Eurig slid the cup to his brand new position and also cheered up, owning a vision of his renowned event in the making.

    Cy: "Pam wyt ti ddim yn helpu fi gyda hyn? Mae yma feistres yn genhedlaeth eithriadol!
    En: "Why don’t you help me with this? There's a master in this exceptional generation!

    Cy: Gawn ni dro cyfaddawadwy!"
    En: Let’s have an adaptable endeavor!"

    Cy: "Syniad arbennig!" welodd Gwenyth, y llwch anesmwyth o fewn ei llais yn dylanwadu ar bob sgwrs.
    En: "Wonderful idea!" Gwenyth opined, the restless dust within her voice influencing every conversation.

    Cy: "Alla i ddim aros i ddechrau ar y prosiect newydd ‘ma."
    En: "I can't wait to start on this new project."

    Cy: Ar y diwedd, roedd y ddau ffrind yn gytûn creadigol, gan ddod â chaer newydd i’w pechod.
    En: In the end, the two friends creatively agreed, bringing a new fortress to their sins.

    Cy: Yma yn y ddinas isel lle'r oedd pob cerbyd, roedd Gwenyth wedi canfod ilwyddiant hynod newydd.
    En: Here in the low city where every vehicle was, Gwenyth had found a remarkably new success.

    Cy: Roedd Eurig wedi sefydlu cysylltiad deimwn gwell â’i gymuned.
    En: Eurig had established a stronger connection with his community.

    Cy: Yn awr, roeddent yn barod i droi tudalen euraid newydd eu bywydau, gan atseinio’r un cyffyrddiad o ffraethineb, gan gychwyn ar deithiau newydd.
    En: Now, they were ready to turn a new golden page in their lives, echoing the same touch of wit, embarking on new journeys.
