Story Transcript:

Cy: Ar fore braf haf, roedd y tirwedd yn Snowdonia yn llawn gyda chromlechi lush a bryniau mwsoglyd.
En: On a fine summer morning, the landscape in Snowdonia was full of lush cromlechs and mossy hills.

Cy: Roedd yr awyrgylch yn llawn arogl pridd mwsoglyd ac y sain o afon fach yn llifo'n dawel.
En: The atmosphere was filled with the scent of earthy moss and the sound of a small river gently flowing.

Cy: Yn hamddenol yn y gwersyll, roedd Gareth a Cerys, dau frawd a chwaer, yn paratoi i fynd am dro.
En: Relaxing at the campsite were Gareth and Cerys, a brother and sister, preparing to go for a walk.

Cy: Gareth, y brawd hynaf, oedd bob amser y sawl sy'n meddwl am ddiogelwch.
En: Gareth, the older brother, was always the one who thought about safety.

Cy: Roedd e am gadw popeth yn ei le.
En: He wanted to keep everything in its place.

Cy: "Mae'n bwysig cadw at y llwybr," meddai Gareth.
En: "It's important to stick to the path," Gareth said.

Cy: "Mae'n ddigon peryglus yma heb anturio'n ddiangen.
En: "It's dangerous enough here without venturing unnecessarily."

Cy: "Ond roedd Cerys yn dringo efo'i sgidiau mochyn rhos, ei llygaid yn sgleinio o gyffro.
En: But Cerys was climbing with her pig's trotter shoes, her eyes gleaming with excitement.

Cy: "Ond Gareth," meddai, "dyw hi ddim bob dydd gallwn ni weld y golygfeydd gorau.
En: "But Gareth," she said, "it's not every day we can see the best views.

Cy: Rhaid i mi fynd i'r llwybr newydd yna!
En: I have to go to that new path!

Cy: Mae'n edrych yn gyffrous!
En: It looks exciting!"

Cy: "Gareth aeth yn dawel am foment.
En: Gareth went quiet for a moment.

Cy: Roedd yn poeni.
En: He was worried.

Cy: Ond roedd Cerys wedi gwneud ei meddwl i fynu.
En: But Cerys had made up her mind.

Cy: "Os nad wyt ti'n dod, bydda i'n mynd fy hun," gweiddi Cerys gan ddechrau cerdded i gyfeiriad llwybr arall, llai teithio.
En: "If you're not coming, I'll go by myself," shouted Cerys, starting to walk towards another, less-traveled path.

Cy: Roedd Gareth yn teimlo tensiwn ynddo.
En: Gareth felt tension within him.

Cy: Roedd yn gwybod nad oedd yn gallu gadael ei chwaer ifanc ar ei phen ei hun.
En: He knew he couldn't leave his younger sister on her own.

Cy: "Arhoswch, Cerys!
En: "Wait, Cerys!"

Cy: " gwaeddodd, yn dechrau rhedeg ar ei hôl.
En: he shouted, beginning to run after her.

Cy: Cyrraeddon nhw gyda’i gilydd i le hardd lle roedd y golygfeydd yn cymryd anadl.
En: They reached together a beautiful place where the views took their breath away.

Cy: Y bryniau'n amlygu yn erbyn yr awyr las, a llyn disglair yn sioe'r haul yn y pellter.
En: The hills stood out against the blue sky, and a sparkling lake was a showcase for the sun in the distance.

Cy: Roedd Cerys yn edrych ar Gareth gyda gwir werthfawrogiad.
En: Cerys looked at Gareth with genuine appreciation.

Cy: "Roeddwn i eisiau i ti weld hyn," meddw Cerys.
En: "I wanted you to see this," said Cerys.

Cy: "Rwy'n gwybod dy fod di'n poeni, ond dyma yw'r fomentau sy'n werth y risg.
En: "I know you worry, but these are the moments that are worth the risk."

Cy: "Gareth wnaeth cael gafael ar ei anadl, ei galon yn llon.
En: Gareth caught his breath, his heart cheerful.

Cy: Oedd e'n gweld hynny'n now.
En: He saw it now.

Cy: "Roeddwn i ddim yn meddwl bod hyn mor bwysig i ti," gwnaeth Gareth ateb yn dawel.
En: "I didn't think this was so important to you," Gareth answered quietly.

Cy: "Ond rwy'n falch fy mod wedi ddod.
En: "But I'm glad I came."

Cy: "Cyd-ddeall a daeth tawelwch rhwng y ddau.
En: A mutual understanding and quiet fell between the two.

Cy: Roeddent yn eistedd yno, yn rhannu'r olygfa hardd, wedi trosglwyddo eu hofnau ac yn dod â'u perthynas yn nes.
En: They sat there, sharing the beautiful view, having moved past their fears and bringing their relationship closer.

Cy: Roedd Cerys yn dysgu gwerthfawrogi cyngor Gareth, a Gareth yn dysgu gadael ei hun i antur.
En: Cerys learned to appreciate Gareth's advice, and Gareth learned to let himself embrace adventure.

Cy: Wrth i'r haul ddechrau diflannu y tu ôl i'r bryniau, roedd y brawd a'r chwaer yn adrodd straeon am yr antur yn chwerthin yn ôl i'w carafan.
En: As the sun began to disappear behind the hills, the brother and sister recounted tales of their adventure, laughing back to their caravan.

Cy: Roedd eu unoliaeth wedi cryfhau, a'r haf hwnnw'n fuont newydd yn atgofion a fyddent byth yn gadael y traciau gorau.
En: Their unity had strengthened, and that summer became new memories that would never leave the best tracks.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Wrth i'r haul gwenu dros y tŷ teulu mawr, roedd awyrgylch o gymdeithasu a hapusrwydd yn llenwi pob cornel o'r lle.
En: As the sun smiled over the large family house, an atmosphere of socializing and happiness filled every corner of the place.

Cy: Roedd teulu Gwyneth wedi dod ynghyd ar ddiwrnod braf o haf.
En: Gwyneth's family had gathered together on a fine summer's day.

Cy: Roedd y plant yn chwarae yn y gardd fawr wrth i'r oedolion hel clecs a mwynhau pecyn bach o fwydydd traddodiadol Cymru, yn cynnwys cawl blasus a bara lawr.
En: The children played in the large garden as the adults gossiped and enjoyed a small package of traditional Welsh foods, including delicious soup and bara lawr.

Cy: Yn y canol i'r haint llawen, safai Gwyneth, merch synhwyrol a chyfrifol, wrth ymyl Emrys, ei chyfnither bywiog a chwareus.
En: In the midst of the joyous tumult stood Gwyneth, a sensible and responsible girl, next to Emrys, her lively and playful cousin.

Cy: Doedd Emrys erioed yn poeni llawer am dreftadaeth neu hanes teuluol, ond Gwyneth oedd rhywun a oedd bob amser eisiau gwybod rhagor am eu gorffennol.
En: Emrys never cared much about heritage or family history, but Gwyneth was someone who always wanted to know more about their past.

Cy: Heb rybudd, cafodd y teulu adroddiad gan ei nain bod gan ei hen dad-cu wobr sydd â chyfrinach yn gysylltiedig â cham gyntaf i'w etifeddiaeth.
En: Without warning, the family received a report from her grandmother that her great-grandfather had left a prize with a secret connected to the first step to their inheritance.

Cy: Roedd y cyfan wedi’u hysgogi gan hen ddirgelwch mewn ffurf telyneg rhifol.
En: It was all driven by an old mystery in the form of a numerical lyric.

Cy: Roedd Gwyneth yn mynd ati i ddeall y pos, y rhain oedd y geiriau:
En: Gwyneth set out to understand the puzzle, which included these words:

Cy: "Ail-fiwio'r llew, mae'n dal o hyd, Y rhwymyn tywyll a byrbryd. Geiriau difyr, yn cuddio'n glaer, Hen storïau a hanes yn ailwlad."
En: "Rouse the lion, it still remains, The dark bond and a quick snack. Intriguing words, shining hidden, Old stories and history retold."

Cy: Roedd y geiriau'n gymhleth, yn ymddangos fel a fyddent yn cyfeirio at hanes teuluol anhysbys iddi.
En: The words were complex, appearing to refer to family history unknown to her.

Cy: Ond gyda chynllunio ac ymchwil, roedd Gwyneth benderfynol.
En: But with planning and research, Gwyneth was determined.

Cy: Ymunodd Emrys gyda hi, yn annisgwyl. Ond roedd hwyliog ei gynorthwyo, er y difrod roedd ei ogofau dros dro yn achosi.
En: To her surprise, Emrys joined her, willingly assisting despite the temporary chaos his antics often caused.

Cy: “Pan wrthdaro, mae'r ateb yn aml o dan ein trwynau,” meddai Emrys, rhwng chwerthan a pharatoi danteithion.
En: “When clashing, the answer is often right under our noses,” said Emrys, between laughter and preparing treats.

Cy: Gan weithio o dan y cysgodder emblemau teuluol wedi'u plethu ar wandodau prunau, dechreuodd y ddau ddadansoddi'r pethau.
En: Working under the shadow of intertwined family emblems on braided patterns, the two began to analyze things.

Cy: Fe wnaethant ail-fyw'r hanes teuluol trwy straeon gwych o’r wlad.
En: They relived the family history through wonderful stories of the land.

Cy: Wrth ddilyn y cliwiau, cafodd Gwyneth ac Emrys linyn cysylltiol newydd.
En: By following the clues, Gwyneth and Emrys discovered a new connective thread.

Cy: Er mawr syndod, ni oedd unrhyw gyfoeth materol a ddaeth i'r amlwg, ond yn hytrach, llyfrau cyfarwyddiadu llawysgrif o storïon personol y gorffennol a rysáitiau gwerthfawr ei hen hen-nain.
En: To their great surprise, no material wealth emerged, but rather, manuscript instruction books of personal stories from the past and precious recipes of her great-great-grandmother.

Cy: Roedd y pos wedi’i ddatrys.
En: The puzzle was solved.

Cy: Mae Gwyneth wedi sylweddoli gwerth gwirionedd datgloi dirgelion, yn union fel ag Emrys wedi dysgu parch tuag at ddymuniadau dwfn Gwyneth.
En: Gwyneth had realized the true value of unlocking secrets, just as Emrys had learned to respect Gwyneth's deep wishes.

Cy: Nid oedd hi'n amarchus y teulu mwyach; roedd hi'n gyfoethocach ei phrofiad, gwerthfawrogiad newydd o gwmpas unrhyw un â meddwl gwahanol neu ddifrifol.
En: She no longer disrespected the family; she was enriched by her experience, with new appreciation for anyone with a different or serious mindset.

Cy: Roedd eu treftadaeth wirioneddol wedi dod i'r golwg, yn cryfhau eu cwlwm teuluol, a dod â llu amheirifiaid i dawelwch cartref gyfan ynghyd â storïau, straeon a chwerthin.
En: Their true heritage had come to light, strengthening their family bond and bringing countless members to a peaceful home filled with stories, tales, and laughter.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Golau’r haul haf oedd yn disgyn yn feddal ar erddi’r hen blasty sy’n edrych dros y môr ym Mhenrhyn Gŵyr.
En: The summer sun's light fell softly on the gardens of the old mansion overlooking the sea in the Penrhyn Gŵyr (Gower Peninsula).

Cy: Roedd y teulu wedi dod ynghyd i fwynhau prynhawn gyda chyfeillgarwch a sgwrs.
En: The family had gathered to enjoy an afternoon of companionship and conversation.

Cy: Mewn cornel, safai Eira, y chwaer ieuengaf, yn edrych yn ofalus ar lyfrau'r llyfrgell deuluol.
En: In a corner stood Eira, the youngest sister, carefully looking at the family library's books.

Cy: Roedd gan y teulu drysor gwerthfawr, tlws teuluol oedd wedi bod gyda nhw ers cenedlaethau.
En: The family had a valuable treasure, a family heirloom that had been with them for generations.

Cy: Heddiw, roedd wedi diflannu.
En: Today, it had vanished.

Cy: Roedd y tlws ar goll, a phawb yn troi i Eira gyda golwg drwgdybus.
En: The heirloom was missing, and everyone turned to Eira with a suspicious glance.

Cy: Roedd Eira wedi’i ddal yn ceisio profi bod yn gyfrifol.
En: Eira found herself trying hard to prove she was responsible.

Cy: Roedd hi’n benderfynol o’i ddod o hyd.
En: She was determined to find it.

Cy: “Fe wna i ddarganfod beth ddigwyddodd,” meddai Eira, ei llais yn benderfynol ond calon yn curiad cyflym.
En: "I will discover what happened," said Eira, her voice determined but her heart beating fast.

Cy: Gareth, ei brawd hynaf, a oedd yn aml yn anniddig gyda’i chwaer ifancach, edrychodd ar Eira gydag amheuaeth.
En: Gareth, her eldest brother, who was often impatient with his younger sister, looked at Eira with doubt.

Cy: “Ti’n gwybod bod hyn yn fwy na all dy fryd bach di ddelio â?
En: "You know this is more than your little mind can handle?"

Cy: ” gofynnodd Gareth, gan bwyso ar ffrâm y drws.
En: asked Gareth, leaning on the door frame.

Cy: Ond ni wnaeth Meredith, ei chyfnither doeth a thawel, ddim ond gwenu'n dyner.
En: But Meredith, their wise and quiet cousin, simply smiled gently.

Cy: “Rhaid i ni roi cyfle iddi,” dywedodd Meredith, yn cynnig cymorth hudolus yn ei bresenoldeb.
En: "We must give her a chance," said Meredith, offering a magical support with her presence.

Cy: Aeth Eira ati i wneud ei hymchwiliadau.
En: Eira set off on her investigation.

Cy: Cafodd hyd i dystiolaeth, gwasgariad o weddillion papurau oedd yn sbri i’r gwynt ar ben y desg.
En: She found evidence, a scattering of paper remnants that were blowing in the wind on the desk.

Cy: Roedd y wybodaeth o aren o help, ond roedd llawer o waith yn dal i’w wneud.
En: The information was somewhat helpful, but there was still much work to be done.

Cy: Treuliodd oriau hir yn chwilio, gwrando am straeon, a thynnu lluniau yn ei meddwl.
En: She spent long hours searching, listening to stories, and drawing pictures in her mind.

Cy: Yna ryw awr neu ddwy ar ôl amser cinio, daeth Eira ar draws rhywbeth diddorol: adarnod bach ar ochr silff lyfrau hen, a oedd wedi mynd yn angof ers tro byd.
En: Then, an hour or two after lunch, Eira came across something interesting: a small knob on the side of an old bookshelf that had long been forgotten.

Cy: Wrth rybedio bwtwm cudd, agorodd Eira gympartmant dirgel yn y silff lyfrau.
En: By pressing a hidden button, Eira opened a secret compartment in the bookshelf.

Cy: Yn yno, amrywiwyd glain iach o liw ac aur.
En: Inside, there was a healthy glow of beads of color and gold.

Cy: Safai yn fud.
En: She stood speechless.

Cy: Y tlws!
En: The heirloom!

Cy: Roedd rhywun wedi’i guddio yn fwriadol, ond pam?
En: Someone had intentionally hidden it, but why?

Cy: Gollyngodd lonc llyffethair o ganol torf y teulu, ond cyn iddynt fynd yn rhy bell gyda dychmygu, camodd yr hen ewythr Jac ymlaen.
En: A gasp rose from the family crowd, but before they could delve too deep into speculation, old Uncle Jac stepped forward.

Cy: "Rwy’n ddrwg gen i," cyfaddefodd, wyneb i lawr.
En: "I am sorry," he admitted, looking down.

Cy: "Fel plant ni, roeddwn am weld fflach y rhithgor mwyn i’r un olaf unwaith yn rhagor.
En: "Like when we were kids, I wanted to see the gleam of the beloved heirloom one last time."

Cy: "Ar unwaith, eisteddfodd y teulu ar y bwrdd coffi.
En: Instantly, the family sat around the coffee table.

Cy: Cafodd dyddiau hanes y tlws eu rhannu tra roedd teimladau amrywiol yn cylchdroi, o sioc i hawddfyd.
En: The days of the heirloom's history were shared while various emotions swirled, from shock to relief.

Cy: Mewn un (math o) fan a’r tof, sylweddolais bod y dyn wedi methu’n llwyr.
En: In a moment, I realized the man had utterly failed.

Cy: Amser hir o fynd a dod, eisteddodd teulu ac gwrando ar Eira tra'n derbyn ymddiheuriadau a pharch newydd.
En: After a long time of coming and going, the family sat back and listened to Eira while accepting apologies and newfound respect.

Cy: Roedd Gareth wedi dysgu bod ei fyfyrdodau anghywir, a dechreuodd weld ei chwaer mewn golau newydd.
En: Gareth learned that his previous assumptions were wrong, and he began to see his sister in a new light.

Cy: Wrth i’r haul suddo dros y gorwel, roedd Gŵyr wedi profi i Eira fod yn arwr, ac unwaith eto roedd ysblander y teulu’n disgleirio gyda golau newydd.
En: As the sun set over the horizon, Gŵyr had proven Eira to be a hero, and once again, the splendor of the family shone with new light.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Ym Mharc Cenedlaethol Eryri, roedd y siop offer mynydda yn llawn cymeriad, wedi ei wreiddio ym mywyd y bryniau a'r mynyddoedd o'i chwmpas.
En: In Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri, the mountaineering equipment store was full of character, rooted in the life of the surrounding hills and mountains.

Cy: Roedd Emlyn, Carys, a Gwyn wedi ymgasglu yno ar fore braf o haf.

Cy: Roedd angen iddo sicrhau bod ganddo bob darn o offer angenrheidiol.
En: He needed to ensure he had every necessary piece of equipment.

En: As someone with a lot of experience, he was aware of the importance of safety, but he also wanted the trip to be fun.

Cy: Yn y siop, roedd Carys yn egnïol, yn codi eitemau a chanmol eu defnydd.
En: In the store, Carys was energetic, picking up items and praising their use.

Cy: "Dyma'r esgidiau mwyaf ysgafn y cawn ni," meddai hi yn llawn hyder.
En: "These are the lightest shoes we can find," she said with confidence.

Cy: "Pwy sydd angen mwy na gwrthrychau hanfodol?"
En: "Who needs more than the essential items?"

Cy: Gwyn, yn wahanol, oedd un manwl a pheidiwl.
En: Gwyn, in contrast, was meticulous and cautious.

Cy: "Mae angen paratoi'r gorau posib," ochneidiodd Gwyn.
En: "We need to prepare as best as possible," sighed Gwyn.

Cy: "Dylem brynu map, cwmpawd, sbectol haul, a defnydd dioddwr."
En: "We should buy a map, compass, sunglasses, and waterproof material."

Cy: Roedd Emlyn yn teimlo'n rhwyg rhwng dau syfrdan.
En: Emlyn felt torn between two extremes.

Cy: Roedd Carys yn cynnig symlrwydd, tra roedd Gwyn yn galw am ragofalu manwl.

Cy: Roedd angen i Emlyn gymryd dewis doeth.

Cy: Roedd y siop yn gysgodol â grisialau pren a'r arogl o goed sypyn, yn rhoi lle i feddwl.

Cy: Wrth sefyll yno, sylweddolodd Emlyn bod ateb yn y canol.
En: As he stood there, Emlyn realized there was an answer in the middle.

Cy: Pam ddim dilyn ei rai ei hun?
En: Why not follow his own approach?

Cy: Gan ystyried y ddau safbwynt, penderfynodd Emlyn gymryd pethau amrywiol.
En: Considering both perspectives, Emlyn decided to take a variety of things.

Cy: Dewisodd bag cefn sydd yn hawdd ei gario ond hefyd yn daladwy, map cywir a theclyn llaw sobrach.
En: He chose a backpack that was easy to carry but also durable, an accurate map, and a handy pocket tool.

Cy: Gofynnodd i'r siopwr am gynghorion. A phrynodd dwb gymorth cyntaf fach hefyd.
En: He asked the shopkeeper for advice and also purchased a small first aid kit.

Cy: Roedd yn bwysig i'w saff ystyried, ond nid yn ormodol.
En: It was important to consider safety, but not excessively.

Cy: Roedd Carys a Gwyn yn edrych ar Emlyn gydag uchelgyfrif fel y cafodd ei ddetholion.
En: Carys and Gwyn looked at Emlyn with high regard for his selections.

Cy: "Rydyn ni'n ymddiried yn dy brofiad," meddai Carys, yn gwenu.
En: "We trust your experience," said Carys, smiling.

Cy: Gyda phawb yn barod, gadawon nhw siop y mynyddoedd.

Cy: Dysgodd Emlyn i ymddiried yn ei farn ei hun ac i ddod o hyd i gydbwysedd rhwng ofal a hwyl.
En: Emlyn learned to trust his own judgment and to find a balance between caution and fun.

Cy: Roedd yntau, Carys, a Gwyn yn wynebu eu hantur gyda sicrwydd a hapusrwydd.
En: He, Carys, and Gwyn faced their adventure with confidence and happiness.

Cy: Roedd eu camau cyntaf tuag at y mynydd yn obeithiol.
En: Their first steps toward the mountain were hopeful.

Cy: Roedd y daith a'r cwmnïaeth yn addo llawer.
En: The journey and the companionship promised much.

Cy: Ynghanol harddwch Eryri, roedd ganddyn nhw haul ar eu wyneb a phwrw ar eu dydd.
En: Amid the beauty of Eryri, they had the sun on their faces and brightness in their day.

Cy: Roedd popeth yn berffaith ar y dyddiau tanllyd hynny.

Cy: Drwy'r niwl trwchus yn y Gwap Caenig, roedd y farchnad wedi deffro i fywyd unwaith eto.
En: Through the thick mist in the Gwap Caenig, the market had come to life once again.

Cy: Roedd Bronwen, â gwên fawr ar ei hwyneb, wedi gosod ei stondin ger coeden helyg enfawr.
En: Bronwen, with a big smile on her face, had set up her stall near a huge willow tree.

Cy: Ar ei bwrdd roedd potiau a phlanhigion o wahanol siapau a meintiau, ond y dydd hwnnw 'roedd ei hymffrost ychwanegol yn deillio o wlad brenhinol, neu felly 'roedd hi'n credu.
En: On her table were pots and plants of various shapes and sizes, but that day her additional pride derived from a royal land, or so she believed.

Cy: "Dyma llysiau'r dywysoges," meddai Bronwen yn llawen, yn ogystal â cheisio denu sylw Emrys, a oedd yn arwain taith arall o amgylch y gwlypdir gleision.
En: "Here are the princess's herbs," said Bronwen cheerfully, also trying to catch the attention of Emrys, who was leading another tour around the green wetlands.

Cy: Roedd ei frychau piwis yn dangos ei ddiddordeb wrth iddo wenu yn ôl arni.
En: His freckled face showed his interest as he smiled back at her.

Cy: Ond roedd Gwilym yn syllu, ei fysedd yng ngliniau'n gorweddol.
