    Story Transcript:

    Cy: Y lle a fyddai lleoliad y stori hon oedd Portmeirion, pentref bach hudolus yng Ngogledd Cymru.
    En: The setting of this story was Portmeirion, a charming little village in North Wales.

    Cy: Pan gyrhaeddodd yr haf, roedd y golygfeydd yn fyw gyda lliwiau'r gwanwyn newydd.
    En: When summer arrived, the scenery was alive with the colors of the new spring.

    Cy: Roedd y blodau'n blodeuo'n aruthrol, gan wahodd pobl i deimlo'r amrywiol arogleuon yn yr awyr clir.
    En: The flowers bloomed magnificently, inviting people to experience the various scents in the clear air.

    Cy: "Mae'r ysgol wedi trefnu taith i Portmeirion," meddai Carwyn yn gyffrous wrth Elin wrth i'r bws fynd lawr y ffordd droellog tuag at y pentref.
    En: "The school has organized a trip to Portmeirion," Carwyn said excitedly to Elin as the bus wound its way down the twisting road towards the village.

    Cy: Roedd ganddo lysnafedd oddi tano a chwerthin di-stop.
    En: He was bubbling with energy and unstoppable laughter.

    Cy: "Wyt ti'n gwybod bod yna gerddi cudd yma?"
    En: "Do you know there are hidden gardens here?"

    Cy: Gwelir yr wynebau cyfarwydd wrth iddynt gerdded gyda'r guryn.
    En: Familiar faces were seen as they walked with the group.

    Cy: Roedd Elin yn gwneud ei gorau i ddim edrych mor bryderus wrth iddi ddal llygaid Carwyn.
    En: Elin was doing her best not to look too anxious as she caught Carwyn's eye.

    Cy: Roedd rhywbeth o'i gyfaredd yn ei llais, ac roedd ei chalon yn chwalu â chyffro posib.
    En: There was something enchanting in his voice, and her heart was pounding with the possibility of excitement.

    Cy: "Efallai yfory," addawodd Elin wrtho ef, er bod teimlad egnïol o antur yn pwyso ar ei chof.
    En: "Maybe tomorrow," promised Elin to him, although an energetic feeling of adventure weighed on her mind.

    Cy: Roedd hithau'n gwybod pa mor wael oedd y perygl o fynd i drafferthion, ond roedd ei ddyhead am wybodrwydd yn drech na hynny.
    En: She knew how dangerous it could be to get into trouble, but her desire for knowledge overcame that.

    Cy: Wrth iddyn nhw gerdded trwy'r pentref, edrychodd Elin dros y cyrion y tŷ lliwgar, bach – roedd popeth yn edrych mor swyngyfareddol.
    En: As they walked through the village, Elin looked over the edges of the small, colorful houses – everything looked so magical.

    Cy: Roedd yr adeiladau fel pethau o blaned arall, a'r cerdded troi a throelli oedd yn frawychus i weld drostynt.
    En: The buildings seemed like something from another planet, and the winding paths led to breathtaking views.

    Cy: "Ni ddylai’w colli’r cyfle hwn," meddai Carwyn yn dawel wrth Elin, gan dynnu ei llaw i ffwrdd o'r grŵp.
    En: "We shouldn't miss this opportunity," Carwyn said quietly to Elin, pulling her hand away from the group.

    Cy: Roedd Elin yn araf, ond yn sicr, yn dilyn.
    En: Elin slowly, but surely, followed.

    Cy: Dechreuodd y ddau symud i ffwrdd, waned felysched Portmeirion dros eu penelinoedd.
    En: The two began to move away, with the sweetness of Portmeirion waning over their shoulders.

    Cy: Trwy giatiau cul a lonydd byth gwybodadwy, cyrhaeddon nhw wal uchel rwbel, gyda phorth bach tarwll.
    En: Through narrow gates and unknowable lanes, they arrived at a high stone wall with a small archway.

    Cy: "Edrychwch ar y lle yma," meddai Carwyn yn ffrwd llanw, wrth iddo ddangos gerddin cudd iddi.
    En: "Look at this place," Carwyn said in a rush, as he showed her the hidden garden.

    Cy: Yng nghanol y dirgeledigaeth, roedd blodau a ddiddorol yn dawnsio yn y gwynt bychan o'u cwmpas.
    En: In the midst of the secrecy, intriguing flowers danced in the slight breeze around them.

    Cy: Roedd yn lle unigryw lle na ellid dianc.
    En: It was a unique place from which escape was impossible.

    Cy: Ond, tra na allent syrthio i'r byd o'u cwmpas, cafodd Elin weld yn union am beth oedd hi wedi gobeithio – byd y tu hwnt i’r cyfarwydd.
    En: But, while they couldn't fall into the world around them, Elin saw exactly what she had hoped for – a world beyond the familiar.

    Cy: Dyna pan glywson nhw lais y curyn yn galw yn eu cyfeiriad.
    En: That's when they heard the voice of the group leader calling in their direction.

    Cy: Cynt, heb wario mwy o amser, mudwch nhw’n ôl at y grŵp gyda’i gallu gorau.
    En: Quickly, without spending more time, they hurried back to the group with their best effort.

    Cy: Pan ddychwelsant heb i'w absenoldeb sylwi ar unrhyw un, roedd Carwyn gyda’r syniad y byddai cael ffrind i’w dewis dros yr wyneb mwyaf; roedd yn werth pob eiliad.
    En: When they returned without anyone noticing their absence, Carwyn had the idea that having a friend choose you over the biggest opportunity was worth every second.

    Cy: Ac ar y pryd, teimlai Elin na allai ddod yn ôl at ei bywyd arferol yr un fath â phan y cafodd ei adael.
    En: And at the moment, Elin felt that she couldn't return to her ordinary life the same as when she left it.

    Cy: Yn y daith adref roedd Elin yn gwên ysgafnach nag erioed.
    En: On the journey home, Elin was smiling lighter than ever.

    Cy: Roedd becduro fechan honno melys i'r plant a dyhead ei chalon am oresgyn wedi'i chyflymu, gorffenwyd gyda llawenydd a rhinwedd.
    En: That little adventure sweetened her growth, and her heart's desire for conquest had accelerated, ending with joy and virtue.

    Cy: Roedd y penderfyniad wedi dangos iddi rywbeth y tu hwnt i'r amseroedd arferol.
    En: The decision had shown her something beyond ordinary times.

    Cy: Roedd yn gobaith am y farn fod personiaeth y dyfodol yn oesau ei jiwbili.
    En: It was hope for the belief that the future's personality would be the age of her jubilee.

    Cy: Castell Henllys oedd man lle gosododd y gorffennol a'r presennol ei gilydd mewn eglurder.
    En: Castell Henllys was a place where the past and present met each other in clarity.

    Cy: Yno, ger y llys hynafol, roedd Rhys, Elin, a Gareth yn cyfarfod.
    En: There, near the ancient court, Rhys, Elin, and Gareth met.

    Cy: Roedd Rhys yn archeolegydd brwdfrydig, bob amser yn chwilio am yr hyn oedd wedi ei golli yn hanes hindreuliedig.
    En: Rhys was an enthusiastic archaeologist, always searching for what had been lost in weathered history.

    Cy: "Rydyn ni'n anelu at gael hyd i arteffact chwedlonol," meddai Rhys, ei lygaid yn llawn gyda sglein antur.
    En: "We are aiming to find a legendary artifact," said Rhys, his eyes sparkling with the light of adventure.

    En: Elin, a local girl and Rhys's friend, was concerned about the weather that was turning.

    Cy: "Mae storm ar y gweill," dywedodd hi, y gwynt yn cyflwyno ei eiriau i'r coed oedd yn ysgwyd.
    En: "There is a storm coming," she said, the wind carrying her words to the shaking trees.

    En: Gareth was the newcomer, not entirely sure of the relevance of the search.

    Cy: "Ydych chi wir yn meddwl fod arteffact yma?
    En: "Do you really think there's an artifact here?"

    En: he asked, his face showing doubt.

    Cy: Ond, cafodd ei dynnu i mewn i'w brwdfrydedd.

    En: With gray clouds lighting up the sky, they knew there wasn't much time left.

    Cy: "Does dim Edmyg yn troi nôl," meddai Rhys, gan ddechrau cerdded tuag at y lle ansicr.
    En: "There's no turning back," said Rhys, starting to walk toward the uncertain place.

    Cy: Yn fewndirol, roedd yn teimlo bod rhywbeth pwysig iawn yn aros iddo yno.
    En: Internally, he felt that something very important was waiting for him there.

    Cy: Ymdrechodd y tri ymlaen drwy'r llwyni, gan anwybyddu'r cawodyd oedd yn dechrau gorberth eu dillad.
    En: The three pushed on through the thickets, ignoring the showers that began to soak their clothes.

    Cy: Yn olaf, cyrhaeddon nhw hen ddrws congliedig.
    En: Finally, they reached an old, rickety door.

    Cy: Wrth i'r gwynt chwythu'n gryfach, helpodd Elin ac Gareth Rhys i gloddio'n gyflym drwy'r llifddwr a'r pridd.
    En: As the wind blew stronger, Elin and Gareth helped Rhys to quickly dig through the flood and earth.

    Cy: Yn naturiol, cafodd y storm ei gafael ar y tir.
    En: Naturally, the storm took hold of the land.

    Cy: "Brysia, Rhys!
    En: "Hurry, Rhys!"

    Cy: " gwaeddodd Gareth dros y twrw.
    En: shouted Gareth over the noise.

    Cy: Ac yno, yn y golau llachar, gwelodd Rhys ei feddwl: y dlysau, yn llawn darluniau o'r gorffennol.
    En: And there, in the bright light, Rhys saw his thoughts: the treasures, full of depictions of the past.

    Cy: Gyda ofn a braint, tynnodd yr hen darn i'r golledfa.
    En: With fear and honor, he pulled the ancient piece into the openness.

    Cy: "Rydyn ni wedi ei gael!
    En: "We found it!"

    Cy: " roedd gwisg Rhys mewn llwyddiant, ond mae'r gwynt yn eu rhuthro i adael.
    En: Rhys's clothes were filled with success, but the wind urged them to leave.

    Cy: Diolch i berllannau Gareth, fe wnaethon nhw dynnu Rhys i ddiogelwch, gan edrych dros eu hysgwyddau wrth i'r hen fynedfa ddod yn llawn o bridd.
    En: Thanks to Gareth's strength, they pulled Rhys to safety, looking over their shoulders as the old entrance filled with earth.

    Cy: Wrth i'r tri eistedd o dan goeden, natur yn tanio gyda'r teimlad o faddeuant, roedd Rhys yn edrych ar ei ddau ffrind newydd gyda diolchgarwch.
    En: As the three sat under a tree, nature alight with the feeling of forgiveness, Rhys looked at his two new friends with gratitude.

    Cy: Nid tywod athronyddol ei hun oedd ei dyddiau, ond tair eiliad euraid o gymrodoriaeth priodol.
    En: His days were not just philosophical sands, but three golden moments of fitting camaraderie.

    Cy: "Dw i'n meddwl fy mod i'n deall," meddai yn dawel.
    En: "I think I understand," he said quietly.

    Cy: Roedd y darganfyddiad wedi rhoi mwy iddo na dim ond hanes – roedd e wedi derbyn gwers.
    En: The discovery had given him more than just history – he had received a lesson.

    Cy: Ar noson gainc yn gynnar yn y gwanwyn, roedd golau'r lleuad yn llawenhau'r traeth yn Sir Benfro.
    En: On an early spring night, the moonlight was illuminating the beach in Sir Benfro.

    Cy: Daw'r tonnau i lan a gwrthdaro yn y golau serennog, gyda'r caban bach yn cadw llygad dros y môr.
    En: The waves came crashing to the shore under the starry light, with the little cabin keeping a watchful eye over the sea.

    Cy: Grym bodolaeth yr eiddo hwn ar y teulu unwaith eto oedd gwir ysbryd ei wraidd henaint, Nain.
    En: The essence of this property being in the family once again was the true spirit of its ancient roots, Nain.

    Cy: Roedd Gareth a Carys, brodyr a chwiorydd, yn cerdded ar hyd y traeth.
    En: Gareth and Carys, siblings, walked along the beach.

    Cy: Yn dal yn eu galar am eu nain annwyl, roedden nhw'n adrodd straeon am ei bywyd a'r dyddiau pan fyddai'r teulu'n ymgynnull yn y caban.
    En: Still grieving their dear grandmother, they recounted stories of her life and the days when the family would gather at the cabin.

    Cy: Gareth, gyda'i ymarferoldeb, meddwl am ddyfodol gyda llai o dreth ac ofni'r dyfodol ariannol.
    En: Gareth, with his practicality, thought about a future with fewer taxes and feared the financial future.

    Cy: Ond Carys, â'i natur freuddwydiol, mari-sefydliad ar atgofion a thraddodiadau, na allai ddychmygu gwyro'r llog ar y caban.
    En: But Carys, with her dreamy nature, held fast to memories and traditions, unable to imagine letting go of the cabin's charms.

    Cy: "A ddylwn ni wir werthu'r lle hwn?" Gofynnodd Gareth. "Byddai llawer yn awgrymu hynny."
    En: "Should we really sell this place?" Gareth asked. "Many would suggest that."

    Cy: "Ni allwn, Gareth," atebodd Carys.
    En: "We can't, Gareth," Carys replied.

    Cy: "Heb y caban hwn, byddai'r atgofion yn dechrau pylu a'r teulu yn preyfalu. Roedd Nain yn rhannu pob St. David's Day fan hyn, yn talu cariad i'r gorffennol."
    En: "Without this cabin, the memories would start to fade and the family would drift apart. Nain spent every St. David's Day here, paying tribute to the past."

    Cy: Wrth iddyn nhw fynd i mewn i'r caban, daliodd golau'r lleuad ystafell liwgar o atgofion.
    En: As they entered the cabin, the moonlight captured a colorful room of memories.

    Cy: Gwnaeth y crac preswyl rhwng y lloriau'w teimlo'n siomedig eu bod ar wahân.

    Cy: Roedd clustogau heb eu symud llawn cysur, ac roedd arogl discret o flodau gwyllt Nain yn deffro hen freuddwydion.

    Cy: Darganfuon nhw hen boced o dan wely'r nenfwd, lle'r oedd llythyr wedi'i guddio.
    En: They discovered an old pocket under the attic bed, where a letter had been hidden.

    Cy: "Ewch yma, Gareth," galwodd Carys wedi'i hysgafnu ganddo.
    En: "Come here, Gareth," Carys called, lightened by its presence.

    Cy: "Mae llythyr o Nain!"
    En: "There's a letter from Nain!"

    Cy: Gyda llaw trem, agorodd Gareth y llythyr.
    En: With a trembling hand, Gareth opened the letter.

    Cy: "Annwyl blant,” darllenodd yn uchel, ei llais yn disgleirio yn y tawelwch.
    En: "Dear children," he read aloud, his voice shimmering in the silence.

    Cy: "Roeddwn i'n gwybod y gallech chi deffro yma.

    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.
