Cy: Roedd y tai cerrig wedi pydru a'r gerddi'n llawn mieri gwyllt.

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.

En: "Geraint, I can feel the strength of the air here," said Rhiannon, her voice excited with anticipation for what was to come.

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.

Cy: Serch hynny, penderfynodd i wynebu ei ofnau.

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: 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.

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.

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.

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."

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.
