Story Transcript:
Cy: Ar fferm yng Nghymru, lle'r oedd y tir yn llawn grawnfwyd, roedd Llewellyn, Carys, a Dafydd yn byw.
En: On a farm in Cymru, where the land was full of grain, lived Llewellyn, Carys, and Dafydd.
Cy: Roedd Llewellyn, y ffermwr craff a phenderfynol, yn poeni am y cnydau.
En: Llewellyn, the clever and determined farmer, was worried about the crops.
Cy: Roedd yr awyr, lai'n las nag yn arfer, yn llawn cymylau duon yn dod â storm fawr.
En: The sky, less blue than usual, was full of dark clouds bringing a big storm.
Cy: Roedd y haf ar ei anterth, ond roedd Llewellyn yn teimlo'r bygythiad.
En: Summer was at its peak, but Llewellyn felt the threat.
Cy: Roedd yn gwybod bod angen iddo achub y cnydau rhag y storm.
En: He knew he needed to save the crops from the storm.
Cy: Heb y cnydau, ni fyddai'r fferm yn goroesi.
En: Without the crops, the farm would not survive.
Cy: Roedd y ffermdy wedi bod yn nwylo teulu Llewellyn am genedlaethau.
En: The farmhouse had been in Llewellyn's family for generations.
Cy: Roedd yn goron ar ei deimladau a'i ddyletswydd.
En: It was a crown on his feelings and his duty.
Cy: Ond roedd y tywydd drwg yn symud mewn cynt nag y tybiai.
En: But the bad weather was moving in faster than he had thought.
Cy: Dim ond dynion pren od roedd gan Llewellyn ar y fferm i'w helpu.
En: Llewellyn only had a few wooden men on the farm to help him.
Cy: Roedd angen ychydig iawn o waith, ac er gwaethaf ei gryfder, na allai ymladd â grym natur ar ei ben ei hun.
En: Very little work was needed, and despite his strength, he couldn't fight the force of nature on his own.
Cy: Doedd dim dewis.
En: There was no choice.
Cy: Roedd yn rhaid iddo benderfynu.
En: He had to decide.
Cy: A oedd i ofyn am help Carys a Dafydd?
En: Should he ask Carys and Dafydd for help?
Cy: Roedd rhywbeth wedi digwydd rhwng y tri yn y gorffennol.
En: Something had happened between the three in the past.
Cy: Dadl fach, ond ddigon i gadw ei feddwl rhag eu galw.
En: A small argument, but enough to keep his mind from calling them.
Cy: Ond wrth edrych unwaith eto ar yr awyr, roedd Llewellyn yn gwybod na all aros.
En: But looking once more at the sky, Llewellyn knew he couldn't wait.
Cy: Gwagodd ei ben a chodi ei ffon.
En: He emptied his mind and lifted his staff.
Cy: Tynnodd hi'n gyflym i dy Carys ac yna Dafydd.
En: He swiftly took it to Carys' house and then Dafydd's.
Cy: Efallai yr oeddent wedi dadlau o'r blaen, ond pan eisteddodd y ffermwr wrth eu bwrdd, sylweddolodd eu caredigrwydd.
En: Perhaps they had argued before, but when the farmer sat at their table, he realized their kindness.
Cy: Cawsant hwynganolmathu yn gyflym.
En: They made hasty decisions quickly.
Cy: “Mae angen eich help arnaf ar y fferm,” meddai Llewellyn, ei lais yn llawn o anfwriad.
En: "I need your help on the farm," Llewellyn said, his voice full of urgency.
Cy: “Mae’r storm yn dod, ni allaf ei wynebu ar fy mhen fy hun.
En: "The storm is coming, I can't face it on my own."
Cy: ”Galwodd Carys a Dafydd i fyny ar unwaith heb betruso.
En: Carys and Dafydd immediately got up without hesitation.
Cy: Llwythodd y grwp gyfarpar tarian a gweithredu.
En: The group loaded equipment, shielded, and acted.
Cy: Roedd y gwynt yn codi wrth iddynt fynd allan.
En: The wind was rising as they went out.
Cy: Cuddiodd awyr y dydd ac syrthiodd y glaw megis pylau mellt.
En: The daylight sky hid, and the rain fell like flashes of lightning.
Cy: Roedd y grwp yn gweithio'n ddiflino, yn lapio, yn glymu, yn dymheru.
En: The group worked tirelessly, wrapping, tying, tempering.
Cy: Llifoedd y storm dros y tir, yn rhuo hyd lawr y bryniau.
En: The storm flowed over the land, roaring down the hills.
Cy: Ond roedd Llewellyn, Carys, a Dafydd yn ddigynnwrf, yn parhau i weithio gyda'i gilydd.
En: But Llewellyn, Carys, and Dafydd remained calm, continuing to work together.
Cy: Roedd eu hymdrechion a'u cyd-benderfyniad yn ei gwneud yn bosib.
En: Their efforts and mutual determination made it possible.
Cy: Unigolion, ond yn gryf fel rhan o rith.
En: Individuals, but strong as part of a whole.
Cy: Bum awr a mwy oedd hi pan orffennodd y storm.
En: It was five hours or more when the storm ended.
Cy: Gadawodd y niwl a'r dŵr olau haul newydd, wrth i ddydd dorri eto ar y tir.
En: The mist and water left a new light of sunshine as the day dawned again on the land.
Cy: Roedd y cnydau, er wedi'u chwipio gan y gwynt, yn dal yn gryf a sefydlog.
En: The crops, though whipped by the wind, were still strong and stable.
Cy: Gwênodd Llewellyn, wedi'i blino ond balch.
En: Llewellyn smiled, tired but proud.
Cy: "Diolch," meddai wrth Carys a Dafydd.
En: "Thank you," he said to Carys and Dafydd.
Cy: Eu pumed dadl ar ben.
En: Their fifth argument was over.
Cy: Roedd yn fwy na chnydau yr oedd wedi'u cadw.
En: He had saved more than crops.
Cy: Roedd ymgais newydd yn eu cyfeillgarwch, cwlwm newydd rhwng y tri.
En: There was a new attempt in their friendship, a new bond between the three.
Cy: Dysgodd Llewellyn werth gweithio gyda'i gilydd, ôl byd o ddysgu bod cysylltiadau ag eraill yn rhoi cryfder mwy.
En: Llewellyn learned the value of working together, a world of understanding that connections with others bring greater strength.
Cy: Ond roedd y tir yn dawel unwaith eto, wedi'i ledo gan haul polyn yr haf.
En: But the land was quiet once again, bathed in the summer pole sun.
Cy: Roedd y fferm yn saff, a Llewellyn yn gwybod y byddai'r dyfodol yn llachar, cyhyd ag iddynt gadw'r rhwymyn hwn rhwng ffrindiau.
En: The farm was safe, and Llewellyn knew the future would be bright, as long as they kept this bond between friends.

Story Transcript:
Cy: Ar lannau eang a'r bryniau llawn lewyrch, roedd fferm Gareth wedi sefyll ers cenedlaethau.
En: On the wide shores and the hills full of splendor, Gareth's farm had stood for generations.
Cy: Roedd yr haul haf yn tywynnu’n llachar, gan wneud i'r caeau gwenith wenu'n felyngoch.
En: The summer sun shone brightly, making the wheat fields smile a golden yellow.
Cy: Roedd yna harddwch cartrefol, ond hefyd gysgodion o anlwc.
En: There was a homely beauty, but also shadows of misfortune.
Cy: Y gwrthdaro oedd y tir a adawyd gan dad-cu Gareth.
En: The conflict was over the land left by Gareth's grandfather.
Cy: Roedd gan deulu arall hawliau arno, ac roedd y drafodaeth wedi dyfnhau dros flynyddoedd.
En: Another family had rights to it, and the discussion had deepened over the years.
Cy: Gareth, yn ddyn meddylgar ond yn aml dan straen, eisiau dod â'r ffrae i ben.
En: Gareth, a thoughtful but often stressed man, wanted to bring the feud to an end.
Cy: "Mae'n rhaid inni ddod o hyd i ffordd," meddai Carys, ei chwaer benderfynol, wrthsefyll yn ysgafn pan oeddent yn cerdded trwy'r maes.
En: "We must find a way," said Carys, his determined sister, gently resisting as they walked through the field.
Cy: "Bydd y tir hwn yn golygu bywoliaeth i ni.
En: "This land means livelihood for us."
Cy: ""Ond sut?
En: "But how?"
Cy: " gofynnodd Gareth.
En: asked Gareth.
Cy: "Mae popeth yn cael ei lygru gan stori'r gorffennol.
En: "Everything is tainted by the stories of the past."
Cy: "Wedi iddi wynto am sbel, gyda'r gwynt yn chwythu newydd storom, roedd Gareth yn penderfynu ymweld â Rhys, hen ffrind i'r teulu.
En: After catching her breath for a while, with the wind blowing a new storm, Gareth decided to visit Rhys, an old family friend.
Cy: Roedd Rhys bob amser yn gwybod mwy nag oedd yn dweud.
En: Rhys always knew more than he let on.
Cy: Efallai bod ganddo'r allwedd i ddatrys y broblem.
En: Maybe he had the key to solving the problem.
Cy: Roedd Rhys yn byw yn y bwthyn bach tua diwedd pen y fferm, ymlaen wrth y llwybr serth.
En: Rhys lived in the small cottage near the end of the farm, along the steep path.
Cy: Pan oedd yr awyr yn ddu â chymylau, a'r glaw yn dechrau diferu'n drwm, bu Gareth yn tarfu ar ddrysau'r llofft.
En: When the sky was dark with clouds, and the rain began to drop heavily, Gareth knocked on the loft doors.
Cy: "Rhys," meddai Gareth, ei lais yn cael ei dreiglo gan y gwynt a'r cynnwrf, "rydw i angen eich help.
En: "Rhys," said Gareth, his voice rolling with the wind and excitement, "I need your help."
Cy: "Ffarwel Rhys a'i groesawu â llanwisg caeedig, ond roedd synwyrusrwydd yn ddealladwy yn ei lygaid.
En: Rhys welcomed him with a closed manner, but there was understandable awareness in his eyes.
Cy: Wedi curo diod ar gyfer Gareth, dechreuodd Rhys siarad.
En: After pouring a drink for Gareth, Rhys began to speak.
Cy: "Mae'r tir hwn, oedd unwaith yn rhan o ymerodraeth fawr eich taid.
En: "This land was once part of your grandfather's great empire.
Cy: Ond mae llawer wedi newid.
En: But much has changed."
Cy: ""Beth ddigwyddodd?
En: "What happened?"
Cy: " gofynnodd Gareth gyda chwilfrydedd a'i wyneb yn llawn pryder.
En: asked Gareth with curiosity, his face full of concern.
Cy: "Roedd caswch, atgasedd rhwng brodyr," atebodd Rhys.
En: "There was hatred, enmity between brothers," answered Rhys.
Cy: "Ac roedd y sgarmes wedi’i basio i lawr fel traddodiad.
En: "And the skirmish had been passed down as tradition."
Cy: ""Mlynedd wrth flynyddoedd, nid ydym wedi bod yn ceisio deall," dywedodd Gareth mewn myfyrdod.
En: "Year after year, we haven’t tried to understand," Gareth said in reflection.
Cy: "Nid ildio sydd raid ni ond datrys ac uno.
En: "We must not yield but resolve and unite."
Cy: "Dros amser byr, a phan oedd y storom y tu allan yn troi’n uwch, cawson nhw sgwrs hir.
En: Over a short time, and as the storm outside grew louder, they had a long conversation.
Cy: Trafodon nhw frad, colled, ac o'r drugaredd i faddeuant.
En: They discussed betrayal, loss, and from grace to forgiveness.
Cy: Roedd y gorffennol yn tro yr oeddent wedi anwybyddu.
En: The past was a circle they had ignored.
Cy: Pan daeth y bore eto, gydag awyr yn llachar, roedd Gareth wedi newid.
En: When morning came again, with a bright sky, Gareth had changed.
Cy: Deallodd fod angen i'r dyfodol fod yn erbyn perthynas hawl, ond mewn undod a dealltwriaeth.
En: He understood that for the future to stand against entitlement, it had to be in unity and understanding.
Cy: Yn hytrach na'u pellteru, derbyniodd Gymynrodd ei henuriaid trwy iawndeg a diwygio.
En: Instead of distancing themselves, he accepted his ancestors' legacy through fairness and reform.
Cy: Ar wres haul eto, penderfynodd teulu Gareth gynllunio dyfodol newydd.
En: In the warmth of the sun once more, Gareth's family decided to plan a new future.
Cy: Fel teulu cyfan fe wnaethon nhw gymryd cam law yn llaw dros y tir hwnnw, yn barod i frwydro unrhyw her a ddaw.
En: As an entire family, they took steps hand in hand across that land, ready to face any challenge that came.
Cy: Roedd Gareth wedi dysgu dyrchafu’r gorffennol a chyfoethogi’r dyfodol, gan ddod yn fwy hyderus ac eglur o’r hyn a oedd wir o werth.
En: Gareth had learned to elevate the past and enrich the future, becoming more confident and clear about what was truly valuable.

Story Transcript:
Cy: Mae'r haul haf yn tywynnu dros Dinas Caerdydd, a Phas golau melyn ar lawr yr hen Farchnad Ganolog.
En: The summer sun is shining over the Dinas Caerdydd, and a golden yellow glow rests on the floor of the old Farchnad Ganolog.
Cy: Mae'r lle yn fyw a phrysur, gyda sŵn pobl yn trafod a lleisiau'n cymryd tro i ffarwelio wrth ddrws y lety bysiau gerllaw.
En: The place is alive and bustling, with the sound of people discussing and voices taking turns to bid farewell at the door of the nearby bus depot.
Cy: Ar hyn o bryd, mae Rhys, Carys, a Gwyneth yn cerdded ger y stondinau, llygaid Rhys yn llonaid o fwriad cuddiedig alluogi unwaith eto cysylltiad teuluol sydd wedi hen wanychau dros amser.
En: At this moment, Rhys, Carys, and Gwyneth are walking by the stalls, Rhys' eyes filled with a hidden intention to once again enable a family connection that has long faded over time.
Cy: "Rydyn ni'n mynd i wneud chwiliad gorynydd," dywed Rhys mewn llais sy'n ceisio disgleirio gyda bai newydd.
En: "We're going to do a treasure hunt," says Rhys in a voice attempting to shine with new determination.
Cy: Mae'r dwy chwaer yn edrych ar ei gilydd, ychydig yn betruso ond hefyd gyda diddordeb.
En: The two sisters look at each other, a little hesitant but also interested.
Cy: Mae Rhys, er ei fod yn cynnal delwedd o drefn a rheolaeth, yn teimlo'r wasgfa wrth ysgwyddau ei dad â'r gorchymyn sylfaen.
En: Rhys, although maintaining an image of order and control, feels the pressure at his father's shoulders with the fundamental command.
Cy: Yn syml y mae'r gêm: rhaid canfod ambell i eitem a safle sy'n gysylltiedig â’u plentyndod.
En: The game is simple: they must find certain items and locations linked to their childhood.
Cy: Mae maes y farchnad yn frith â chofion: y stondin ffrwythau lle roeddent yn prynu afalau i'w bwyta'n swllt; y siop fara lle'r oeddent bob amser yn cael eiclairs.
En: The market field is dotted with memories: the fruit stall where they used to buy apples to eat; the bakery where they always got eclairs.
Cy: Mae Carys yn cyffroi, ei meddwl eisoes wedi arnofio rhwng pob synnwr, a chithau'n gwybod mwy na byd am yr angen am ddianc i'r anturiaethau ar draws y ddaear gymharol brysur.
En: Carys is excited, her mind already drifting among every sensation, and knowing more than anything else about the need to escape to adventures across the relatively busy land.
Cy: Ond mae Gwyneth yn aros yn bwyllog, ychydig allan o'i dyfnder gan nad yw wedi gwyntysu ers amser maith.
En: But Gwyneth remains calm, slightly out of her depth as she hasn't ventured out for quite some time.
Cy: Wrth i'r chwiliad fynd rhagddo, mae ysgafngariad troed Rhys yn achosi iddo lwchu braidd.
En: As the hunt progresses, Rhys' lighthearted footsteps cause him to stumble a bit.
Cy: Yn sydyn, ger siop y cigydd lle chwaraeont 'dad' a 'mam' rhyw ddegawd yn ôl, daw i'r amlwg tensiwn sydd wedi bod yn troi ers rhai misoedd.
En: Suddenly, near the butcher shop where they played 'dad' and 'mom' about a decade ago, tension that's been brewing for some months comes to the fore.
Cy: Ryw sylw camarweiniol, ac yn sydyn mae'r adderyn mewn hirach yn cymylu'r haul.
En: A misleading comment, and suddenly the long bird clouds the sun.
Cy: "Pam na ddywedaist ti wrtha i ynglŷn â hynny?" mae Gwyneth yn gofyn, ei llais yn ddistaw ond yn aernas.
En: "Why didn't you tell me about that?" asks Gwyneth, her voice quiet but earnest.
Cy: Mae Rhys yn oedi, y gêm wedi ychwanegu at ei lwyth.
En: Rhys hesitates, the game adding to his burden.
Cy: "Ro'n i... yn ofni gwneud pethau'n waeth," mae'n cyfaddef, llais Rhys yn tangyflaf.
En: "I was... afraid of making things worse," he admits, his voice trembling.
Cy: Carys yn edrych ar ei brawd, deall yn araf yn seismig.
En: Carys looks at her brother, slowly understanding in a seismic way.
Cy: "Mae'n rhaid i mi fod iselder dan y straen," meddai'n ddidwyll.
En: "I must be under the stress," she says sincerely.
Cy: Yn ddiwedd, mae Carys yn ymestyn at ei brawd, yn rhoi llaw ar ei ymyl, ac yn gwenu.
En: Finally, Carys reaches out to her brother, placing a hand on his shoulder, and smiles.
Cy: "Rydyn ni wedi cael digon o chwilio yn awr, Rhys," meddai.
En: "We've had enough searching now, Rhys," she says.
Cy: Mae Gwyneth hefyd yn cymryd ei lwybr, yn diolch i Rhys am y cyfle i weld y farchnad trwy lyged ei hiraeth.
En: Gwyneth also takes her path, thanking Rhys for the opportunity to see the market through the eyes of nostalgia.
Cy: Ar ôl ymyrryd rhwng cyfanrwydd y teulu wedyn, mae Gwyneth yn cydnabod hawliau ei lle, yn cael hyder newydd i'w ddangos.
En: After intervening among the family unity then, Gwyneth acknowledges her place, gaining new confidence to show.
Cy: Bydd Carys yn edrych 'nol ar hyn fel rali â phleser i gyd yr aeth heibio.
En: Carys will look back at this as a sweet rally of all that passed by.
Cy: Mae Rhys yn sylweddoli nid oedd angen perffeithrwydd na phrosiectau mawr i greu amser gwerth chweil gyda'r teulu.
En: Rhys realizes there was no need for perfection or grandiose projects to create valuable family time.
Cy: Mi fydd yn fwy parod i chwarae.
En: He will be more ready to play.
Cy: Daeth y farchnad, gydag aroglau unigryw a sŵn llawen, yn undeb lle, gan ail-gydosod y rhwymau teuluol hithau.
En: The market, with its unique scents and joyful sounds, became a union place, reconfiguring those familial ties.
Cy: Tra'u bod yn gadael y farchnad, drwy lorfa’r bobl ac ymarferoldeb, maent yn cytuno â'i gilydd i gwrdd yn amlach, gan gofio mai atgofion ydynt y mwynderau mwyaf gwerthfawr.
En: As they leave the market, through the throngs of people and practicality, they agree with each other to meet more often, remembering that memories are the most valuable treasures.
Cy: Mae Rhys, gan anadlu'n helaeth, yn teimlo'r dawelwch drosto.
En: Rhys, taking a deep breath, feels the calmness wash over him.
Cy: Byddant yn cadw'r atgofion yna'n fyw.
En: They will keep those memories alive.

Story Transcript:
Cy: Roedd yn ddiwrnod poeth a heulog yng ngogledd Cymru, ond roedd gan Gwilym syniad gwahanol ar gyfer eu diwrnod.
En: It was a hot and sunny day in North Cymru, but Gwilym had a different idea for their day.
Cy: Roedd Carys eisiau treulio'r diwrnod ar y traeth, gyda’r tonnau'n chwalu'n garedig ar y tywod.
En: Carys wanted to spend the day on the beach, with the waves gently crashing onto the sand.
Cy: Ond roedd Gwilym, wrth ei fodd â hanes, wedi siarad am ffrind newydd — Bwncer Dirgel o'r Oes oer.
En: But Gwilym, who loved history, had been talking about a new friend — a Secret Bunker from the old era.
Cy: "Pam ein bod ni yma, Gwilym?" cododd Carys ei llais ychydig wrthi'n edrych ar yr allt sy'n arwain at y bwncer.
En: "Why are we here, Gwilym?" Carys raised her voice a little as she looked at the hill leading to the bunker.
Cy: "Bydd yn gyffrous iawn, Carys! Mae'n lle rydym ni'n gallu gweld ein hanes o'r tu fewn." Atebodd Gwilym, gyda disgleirdeb yn ei lygaid.
En: "It'll be very exciting, Carys! It's a place where we can see our history from the inside," responded Gwilym, with a sparkle in his eyes.
Cy: Wrth iddyn nhw gyrraedd y bwncer, roedd y lle'n dywyll ac yn oer.
En: When they reached the bunker, the place was dark and cold.
Cy: Roedd hynny'n cyferbynnu'n llwyr â'r haul cynnes y tu allan.
En: It was completely opposite to the warm sun outside.
Cy: Roedd yr aer yn arogli'n hen, fel petaech mewn hen storfa.
En: The air smelled old, as if you were in an old storage room.
Cy: Wrth grwydro'r coridorau cul, clywsant y sŵn eu traed yn atseinio ar y llawr concrid.
En: As they wandered the narrow corridors, they heard the sound of their footsteps echo on the concrete floor.
Cy: Roedd Carys dal yn ansicr am y cyfan.
En: Carys was still unsure about it all.
Cy: "Gwilym," meddai gydag ochenaid, "pam mae angen i ni gasglu cyflenwadau hyn?"
En: "Gwilym," she said with a sigh, "why do we need to gather these supplies?"
Cy: "Ar gyfer y dyfodol, Carys. Os bydd diwrnod gwael yn dod, mae'n dda cael cyflenwadau wrth law," esboniodd Gwilym.
En: "For the future, Carys. If a bad day comes, it's good to have supplies on hand," Gwilym explained.
Cy: Roedd ei lais yn llawn o sicrwydd.
En: His voice was full of certainty.
Cy: Ar ôl ychydig o amser, deallodd Carys fod rhywbeth arbennig yn y bwncer hwn.
En: After a while, Carys realized there was something special about this bunker.
Cy: Ceisiodd blethu ei ffordd drwodd gyda Gwilym yn ei arwain i mewn i ystafell gudd.
En: She tried to weave her way through with Gwilym leading her into a hidden room.
Cy: Roedd yno arteffact rhyfedd, wedi'i orchuddio â llwch.
En: There was a strange artifact there, covered in dust.
Cy: Roedd yn edrych fel hen allwedd hir.
En: It looked like an old long key.
Cy: "Tybed beth mae hon yn ei datgloi?" meddai Carys, gyda chwilfrydedd yn ei llygaid am y tro cyntaf.
En: "I wonder what this unlocks?" said Carys, with curiosity in her eyes for the first time.
Cy: Gwenaodd Gwilym.
En: Gwilym smiled.
Cy: Pan ddaethon nhw allan, roedd y byd y tu allan yn dal i fod yn gynnes ac yn fywiog, ond roedd rhywbeth wedi newid.
En: When they came out, the world outside was still warm and lively, but something had changed.
Cy: Roedd Carys yn teimlo cynhesrwydd newydd tuag at antur Gwilym.
En: Carys felt a new warmth towards Gwilym's adventure.
Cy: Gwibiodd am yn ôl i'r car, yrru gan y mynyddoedd ac i lawr i'r dyffryn, ond â gwen ar ei hwyneb.
En: She darted back to the car, driving past the mountains and down into the valley, but with a smile on her face.
Cy: Roedd y bwncer dirgel hwnnw yn rhywbeth mwy na hanes; roedd hefyd gyfle i Carys weld y byd trwy lygaid Gwilym.
En: That secret bunker was more than history; it was also an opportunity for Carys to see the world through Gwilym's eyes.
Cy: Roedd yn haf newydd wedi gwir, ac roedd anturiaethau'n aros am eu tro.
En: It was indeed a new summer, and adventures were waiting for their turn.
Cy: Roedd eu perthynas wedi symud gam ymlaen, gyda chariad o deimlo'r dirgel a'r hen effeithiau.
En: Their relationship had moved a step forward, with a love for feeling the mystery and the ancient artifacts.
