Fyddai hynny'n bendant yn dda."En: "Look at the little things that touch your heart. That would definitely be good."Cy: Cysylltodd ei ffordd â chidwm bach pren wedi’i gerfio o fn °mynyddoedd ger y neuadd.En: She linked her way to a small wooden ornament carved from the mountains near the hall.Cy: Rhys, â’i ymddygiad tawel a chymedrol, chwarddodd.En: Rhys, with his quiet and moderate demeanor, chuckled.Cy: "Mae'n rhaid i ti wneud y penderfyniad, Gareth.En: "You have to make the decision, Gareth.Cy: Ond cofia: nid am faint na maint yw anrheg ond teimlad."En: But remember: an gift is about feeling, not size or cost."Cy: Wedi amser hir yn potrïo am y stondinau, dim ond dechrau roedd Gareth i’w wneud i'w ben.En: After a long time perusing the stalls, Gareth was only just beginning to make up his mind.Cy: Roedd y dewis eang o bethau’n gwefreiddio.En: The wide selection of items was exhilarating.Cy: Cwpwrdd siocled lleol, murlun o'r Carneddau, set cerdyn post darluniol – popeth yn sibrwd am sylw.En: A cupboard of local chocolate, a mural of the Carneddau, an illustrated postcard set – everything whispered for attention.Cy: Yn sydyn, safodd ymlaen at faes mawr o ganlatau anhygoel.En: Suddenly, he stood in front of a large field of incredible choices.Cy: Roedd yna ddwy anrheg iddo ystyried nawr; amrywiaeth pelydr amgylcheddol neu ddarn arbennig o gofeb.En: There were two gifts for him to consider now; an array of environmental beams or a special commemorative piece.Cy: Roedd y ddau yn cynnig llwybr gwahanol o foesoldeb.En: Both offered a different moral path.Cy: "Mae'n rhaid i mi benderfynu," meddai Gareth, tra bo'r cloch yr oriau synhwyrol yn tapio cyflwynydd wedi dod i ben.En: "I have to decide," Gareth said, while the chime of the sensorial clocks tapped as the presenter finished.Cy: Roedd golwg Rhys yn gysurus, a'r cynghorion a dalodd Eleri, yn dyfnder ei meddwl.En: Rhys's look was reassuring, along with Eleri's advice, deep in his mind.Cy: "Byddai'r cofeb yn wych, mae'n brydferth ac wedi'i wneud â llaw. Ond efallai bydd y pecyn ecolegol yn deg megis," myfyriai Gareth, edrych ar wynebau ei ffrindiau.En: "The memorial would be great, it's beautiful and handmade. But maybe the ecological package is just," Gareth speculated, looking at his friends' faces.Cy: Confensiynol a rhai personol yn denu ei gilydd.En: Conventional and personal choices appealed to one another.Cy: Pan ddaeth ddepeiddu'r marchnad, taflodd ei ben yn ôl llaw yn ysgafn.En: As the market came to a close, he lightly threw his head back in acknowledgment.Cy: Ei ddwy ffrind yn gyfrinachol, roedd gwrandewis bod yr anrheg orau’n dod o’r galon, nid y pecyn ag osgoi ei gilydd.En: His two friends said quietly that the best gift comes from the heart, not the package that evades each other.Cy: “Mae’r cafn ac enamylu’r anrhegion am byth. Mae'r bwriad, ystyr a'r cariad yn digwydd hefyd!”En: "The presence and wrapping of gifts last forever. The intention, meaning, and love happen too!"Cy: Wrth i'r llusernau ailgynnau o'u profiadau dros y flwyddyn, croesodd Gareth y bwlch, diolch i Eleri a Rhys am eu help, gyda gwybodaeth na fyddai'r gwyliau hyn yn cael eu anghofio yn fuan.En: As the lanterns rekindled from their experiences over the year, Gareth crossed the gap, thanking Eleri and Rhys for their help, knowing that this holiday would not be forgotten soon.Cy: Roedd y bouniadau'r fforddù en fynediad ymchwil heblaw amdano.En: The bounds of the path were an avenue of research besides him.Cy: Roedd Gareth wedi dysgu gwerth foddhaol drwy’r dydd.En: Gareth had learned the value of satisfaction throughout the day.Cy: Ar fywyd, nid dim byd arall.En: In life, nothing else mattered.Cy: Ac roedd hynny’n ddigon ar gyfer y Noswyl Nadolig hon.En: And that was enough for this Christmas Eve.
