Transcript:Cy: Pan ddaw'r gaeaf i fynyddoedd Eryri, mae'r byd natur yn gwisgo mwgwd o hud.En: When winter comes to the mountains of Eryri, the natural world wears a mask of magic.Cy: Mae'r eira'n tywynnu'n wyn ar draws y copaon, a'r awyr gan ddisgleirio'n las fel lliw'r môr dwfn.En: The snow gleams white across the peaks, and the sky shines blue like the deep sea.Cy: Dyma'r olygfa a groeso Rhys a Eira wrth iddynt gyrraedd mynedfa Rheilffordd Mynydd Yr Wyddfa.En: This is the scene that welcomes Rhys and Eira as they arrive at the entrance of the Snowdon Mountain Railway.Cy: Yr awyr dwymgalon o fwrlwm y Nadolig oedd yn llenwi'r gorsaf gyda siarad a chwerthin, ynghyd â'r hoelen o win cynnes nadoligaidd.En: The station is filled with the warm atmosphere of Christmas cheer, with chatter and laughter, along with the aroma of warm Christmas wine.Cy: Rhys oedd yn sefyll wrth ymyl y ffenestr, ei galon yn ymdopi â'r awydd i gael tawelwch.En: Rhys stood by the window, his heart yearning for quietness.Cy: Roedd yn wylt natur syml o'r dinas, gobeithio dianc am ysbaid o loni dinasoedd mawr.En: He was a simple nature-lover from the city, hoping to escape the hustle of the big cities for a while.Cy: Yn sydyn, fe gododd y tren, ac ymhellach iddo, eisteddodd Eira, llawn brwdfrydedd a'r awydd i weld y byd a oedd yn ei hamgylchynu gydag optimistiaeth.En: Suddenly, the train departed, and across from him, Eira sat, full of enthusiasm and a desire to see the world around her with optimism.Cy: "Ewch chi o amgylch y mynyddoedd yma'n aml?En: "Do you come around these mountains often?"Cy: " gofynnodd Eira yn llon, troi ei harddull ddigu a chandda'i un brwdfrydedd.En: asked Eira cheerfully, her carefree style accompanied by her vibrant enthusiasm.Cy: "Ydw," atebodd Rhys, llai dwys, wrth i'w edrych adael ei ffenestra fawr.En: "Yes," replied Rhys, less intensely, as his gaze left the large window.Cy: "Mae'r mwynhau'r distawrwydd.En: "I enjoy the silence."Cy: "Efallai roedd rhywbeth yn y llais tawel hwnnw a dynnodd Eira ychydig yn agosach.En: There was perhaps something in that quiet voice that drew Eira a little closer.Cy: Gydag amser, fe wnaethon nhw ddechrau rhannu straeon.En: In time, they began to share stories.Cy: Wrth i'r tren gwubanu drwy'r eira a rhew, rhannodd Rhys golygfa o ben y mynydd lle byddai'r haul yn diflannu i'r gorwel, ac roedd Eira yn crwydro'n ddiddiwedd yn ei dychymyg, breuddwydio am anturiaethau.En: As the train whistled through the snow and ice, Rhys shared a view from the top of the mountain where the sun would disappear into the horizon, and Eira wandered endlessly in her imagination, dreaming of adventures.Cy: "Dwi'n gobeithio ffeindio'r heddwch fan hyn," meddai Rhys yn y diwedd.En: "I hope to find peace here," said Rhys at last.Cy: "Dwi'n chwilio am ffordd i ymlacio.En: "I'm looking for a way to relax."Cy: ""Dwi angen cysylltiadau newydd," cyfaddefodd Eira wrth iddo orffwys ei llaw ysgafn ar ffenest oer.En: "I need new connections," admitted Eira as she rested her light hand on the cold window.Cy: "Rhwng poblogrwydd y Nadolig a'r gwyntoedd newydd, mae'n amser da i ddechrau eto.En: "Amid the popularity of Christmas and the new winds, it's a good time to start again."Cy: "Wedi rhai awr yn rhannu straeon ac edmygu'r golygfeydd cyfagos, daeth yr amser i weld y llenni sneig yn gwasgu tu allan, ei dân yn cynhesu'r llawr cyfagos.En: After some hours sharing stories and admiring the surrounding scenery, it was time to see the snow curtains pressing outside, its warmth heating the nearby ground.Cy: Gyda'u calon yn agor i bethau newydd, rhannodd Rhys helyntion o'r gorffennol, tra bod Eira yn gwenu, annog i feddwl mwy agored.En: With their hearts open to new things, Rhys shared past adventures while Eira smiled, encouraging a more open mind.Cy: "Meddyliais na fyddwn byth yn ymddiried mewn un arall eto," mynnodd Rhys, ei lygaid yn pefrio yng ngolau'r ddydd.En: "I thought I would never trust anyone again," insisted Rhys, his eyes sparkling in the daylight.Cy: "Tydw i erioed wedi gwybod rhywun fel ti," winciai Eira.En: "I've never known anyone like you," winked Eira.Cy: Roedd agoriad y tren yn nesau ar ddiwedd eu taith am y tro, ond roedd calon y ddau'n parhau i lynu wrth y syniad o fynd gyda'i gilydd, heibio'r copaon a chyfleu eu stori.En: The train's opening approached the end of their journey for now, but both of their hearts remained attached to the idea of continuing together, beyond the peaks and conveying their story.Cy: Pan stopiodd y tren, daeth eiliad bleth rhwng y ddau.En: When the train stopped, there was a moment of pause between the two.Cy: Roedd y tyndra tywyll ar y cornelau o'r tren wrth iddynt gamu ymlaen gyda'i gilydd, systemol i lawr y brif lwybr, y banciau'n lle'r eira ar y ddaear.En: The dark tension lingered in the train's corners as they stepped forward together, systematically down the main path, the banks replacing the snow on the ground.Cy: Dodrefn mawr y golau haenog, ac i lawr eu llwybr, dyma lle y mae rhwydwaith o rwydlyd fflam yn sblashio oer, lle roeddent yn cysylltu â'r un am ddim.En: The large furnishings of layered light, and down their path, a network of radiant flame splashed cold, where they connected to the one for free.Cy: Fe adawodd y ddau'r tren yn gyffroes, y cynlluniau newydd o antur yn eu chalon, trieith o fyd hefyd.En: The two left the train excitedly, with new plans for adventure in their hearts, a touch of the world too.Cy: Roedd eu calon yn gwresogi, wedi agor i'r mwynhau byd newydd o antur, yn y mynyddoedd, gyda gobaith a thraddodion newydd bob dydd.En: Their hearts were warming, opened to enjoying a new world of adventure, in the mountains, with new hope and traditions each day.

more:fluentfiction.com/cy/episode/2025-12-13-08-38-20-cy Story Transcript:Cy: Roedd y noson yn oer, gyda'r eira yn taflu pinau sy'n gleuog ar draws y strydoedd cul o dde Cymru.En: The night was cold, with the snow casting shimmering pins across the narrow streets of South Cymru.Cy: Yng nghalon y tŷ oedd Rhys a Carys, eu teulu yn rhesi o amgylch y bwrdd pryd te.En: In the heart of the house were Rhys and Carys, their family seated in rows around the dining table.Cy: Addurniadau Nadoligaidd yn addurno'r ystafell byw gul, tinsel yn llithiau'r wal a'r goleuadau yn fflachio'n braf.En: Christmas decorations adorned the narrow living room, tinsel glistening on the wall and lights flashing pleasantly.Cy: Yr arogliad o ginio rhost yn llenwi'r aer, yn cymysgu'n gyffrous â'r tensiwn teuluol anweledig.En: The aroma of a roast dinner filled the air, mixing excitingly with the invisible family tension.Cy: Roedd Rhys yn eistedd yn dawel, ei lygaid yn chwilota am achos ei chwilfrydedd yn y gwefusau disglair ei rieni.En: Rhys sat quietly, his eyes searching for the reason for his curiosity in the bright gaze of his parents.Cy: Roedd am wybod am y sïon.En: He wanted to know about the rumors.Cy: Roedd stori wedi bod yn crwydro'r teulu ers blynyddoedd, un nad oedd neb eisiau siarad amdani.En: There was a story that had been roaming the family for years, one that no one wanted to talk about.Cy: Carys, ei chwaer, yn llawer mwy siaradus, yn benderfynol i ddod o hyd i'r atebion.En: Carys, his sister, much more talkative, was determined to find the answers.Cy: Roedd y ddau yn teimlo'r dirgryniad dirgelion heb ei ddweud.En: Both of them felt the vibration of untold secrets.Cy: Wrth i'r gwin llifo'n rhydd, cymerodd Rhys gam i herio ei rieni.En: As the wine flowed freely, Rhys took a step to challenge his parents.Cy: Roedd yn gwybod mai tynnu hen atgofion oedd y ffordd i agor eu cegau.En: He knew that stirring up old memories was the way to open their mouths.Cy: "Beth sy'n digwydd gyda'r hen lythyr, Dad?En: "What's happening with the old letter, Dad?Cy: Rwy wedi clywed ambell air amddo," chwythodd Rhys, ei lais yn calm ond yn benderfynol.En: I've heard a word or two about it," Rhys called out, his voice calm but determined.Cy: Gwnaeth y gair 'llythyr' cyfnewid ystafell lun fel throb o wastad sydyn o oerfel.En: The word 'letter' shifted the room's atmosphere like a sudden chill.Cy: Aeth llygad Carys ar bennau chwaewr hi.En: Carys's eyes fixed on her brother.Cy: "Rhywbeth roedd Dad-cu bob amser yn cyfeirio at?En: "Something Grandpa always referred to?Cy: Rydyn ni eisiau gwybod," ychwanegodd Carys.En: We want to know," added Carys.Cy: Yn swrth, ar ôl peth trydaneiddio, cyrhaeddodd henail iddi glust Rhys, yn ei ddwylo llythyren wedi'i lapio'n dafarn gan amser.En: Reluctantly, after some tension, an envelope reached Rhys's ear, in his hands a letter wrapped in the tavern of time.Cy: "Mae'r hen glydwr yma wedi bod yma dros hanner can mlynedd," meddai Mamgu, ei llais yn berwi o gymysg symudiadau.En: "This old chestnut has been here for over fifty years," said Mamgu, her voice boiling with mixed emotions.Cy: Pan agorodd Rhys y llythyr, dadorchuddiwyd gwirionedd noeth.En: When Rhys opened the letter, bare truth was unveiled.Cy: Roedd y llythyr yn cario hanes teulu nad oedd neb wedi croesi'r llinellau yn agored.En: The letter carried a family history no one had openly crossed the lines of.Cy: Rhesymau i symud, rhesymau i gadw cyfrinach.En: Reasons to move, reasons to keep secrets.Cy: Er bod rhai o'r teulu'n anghysurus, dechreuodd Rhys a Carys weithio gyda'i gilydd i gydosod darnau aflan y stori.En: Although some of the family were uncomfortable, Rhys and Carys began working together to piece together the disjointed parts of the story.Cy: Roedd twyll, aberth a cariad cuddiedig.En: There was deceit, sacrifice, and hidden love.Cy: Roedd mam-mam a dad-dad yn wynebu cymysgyddasau ddwyster, roedd Rhys yn enedigaeth newydd o ddealltwriaeth am eu natur a'u hymestres.En: Mom and Dad faced intense emotions, as Rhys experienced a new birth of understanding about their nature and struggles.Cy: Er bod llonyddwch o tu ôl i'r dinod hon Anghytgord teuluoedd, fe ddaeth yr wythnosau dilynol yn llwyth o gydsynio heddlo.En: Though there was a quiet behind the façade of this family discord, the following weeks were filled with peaceful reconciliation.Cy: I Rhys a Carys, roedd hyn yn frwydr a wrthodwyd i ennill gwybodaeth i ddeall, tipyn yn ddwysach, y storyll llawn llanast mae pob teulu'n ei hennill ei hun, ac felly ugeinau truggaredig byddai i gydau, fel annwyl yw ein teuluoedd.En: For Rhys and Carys, this was a battle refused, to win knowledge to understand, somewhat more deeply, the messy stories every family owns, and thus countless gracious moments shared, for as dear as our families are.Cy: Ond roedd ymgais Carys a Rhys i ddatgloi cyfrinach o'r gorffennol o'r diwedd yn sicr o ddod â'i effaith, naill ai o gael dwys gysonder o'u teulu neu rhoi heddiw draw rhywun i fyw heb unrhyw ymddi.En: But Carys and Rhys' attempt to unlock a past secret was surely bound to make its impact, either by deepening the bond of their family or by allowing someone to live today without any apology.Cy: A gadawodd y Nadolig hwn gyda newid cuddiedig i wenu a drwsio rhwng teuluoedd.En: And this Christmas left with a hidden change to smile and mend between families.

Story Transcript:Cy: Wedi'r prynhawn oer yn Abertawe, roedd yr Ardd Môr Genedlaethol o dan ddylanwad hud y Nadolig.En: On the cold afternoon in Abertawe, the National Marine Garden was under the influence of Christmas magic.Cy: Roedd addurniadau yn llenwi pob cornel, ac roedd llawnder gaeafol yn teimlo yn yr awyr.En: Decorations filled every corner, and a wintry fullness was felt in the air.Cy: Roedd Gwyn yn sefyll yng nghanol y bwrlwm, yn edrych ar y tanciau melyn gan wybod bod cynllun mawr o'i blaen.En: Gwyn stood amidst the bustle, gazing at the yellow tanks, knowing a big plan lay ahead.Cy: Roedd Gwyn, biolegydd morol mewn ei 30au cynnar, wedi gweld ei chyfle i greu rhywbeth arbennig.En: Gwyn, a marine biologist in her early 30s, had seen her opportunity to create something special.Cy: Roedd hi'n gwybod y gallai yn ystod y tymor Nadolig wneud mwy na dim ond addurno'r tanciau gyda goleuadau.En: She knew that during the Christmas season, she could do more than just decorate the tanks with lights.Cy: Roedd y gymuned yn dyheu am rhywbeth unigryw.En: The community longed for something unique.Cy: Roedd y rheolwyr am weld mwy o bobl yn dod drwy'r drysau, ac roedd Gwyn yn gobeithio y buasai ei newidiadau'n denu cyllid ar gyfer prosiect cadwraeth.En: The managers wanted to see more people coming through the doors, and Gwyn hoped her changes would attract funding for a conservation project.Cy: "Dwi'n gwybod!En: "I know!"Cy: " meddai Gwyn wrth Meredith, ei chydweithiwr ac ymchwilydd o fri.En: said Gwyn to Meredith, her colleague and esteemed researcher.Cy: "Byddwn ni'n defnyddio'r jeli uchelars sy'n aros yma!En: "We will use the highlighter jellyfish that reside here!"Cy: "Roedd sglein uwchddyngedig y jeli uchelars yn syniad Gwyn i greu arddangosfa Nadoligaidd.En: The phosphorescent glow of the highlighter jellyfish was Gwyn's idea to create a Christmas exhibit.Cy: Roedd eu gallu i ddisgleirio mewn lliwiau trawiadol yn gymorth, ond roedd angen amodau penodol arnynt i wneud hyn yn naturiol – golau, tymheredd, hyd yn oed y cyfyngiadau dŵr.En: Their ability to shine in striking colors was helpful, but specific conditions were needed for them to do this naturally—light, temperature, even water parameters.Cy: Doedd dim llawer o amser.En: There wasn't much time.Cy: "Dylwn ni ofalu na fyddwn ni'n ymyrryd yn ormodol," rhybuddiodd Dylan, cyfaill Gwyn a pherthyfwr y systemau dŵr.En: "We should be careful not to interfere too much," warned Dylan, Gwyn's friend and water systems expert.Cy: Roedd merched Gwyn a Dylan yn annog hi i gadw'r cydbwysedd rhwng harddwch weledol ac uniondeb wyddonol.En: Gwyn and Dylan's teammates encouraged her to maintain a balance between visual beauty and scientific integrity.Cy: Ar ddiwrnod olaf gorsed y Nadolig, roedd yr awyrgylch yn drydanol.En: On the last day of the Christmas exhibit, the atmosphere was electric.Cy: Dechreuodd y jeli uchelars, fel petaent yn ymateb i'r alwad o Nadolig, ddisgleirio mewn lliwiau lliwgar.En: The highlighter jellyfish, as if responding to the call of Christmas, began to shine in vibrant colors.Cy: Roedd ymwelwyr yn synnu wrth weld y sioe weledol.En: Visitors were amazed at the visual show.Cy: Roedd sawl un yn tynnu lluniau, ac roedd y cyfryngau lleol yn orlawn balchder.En: Many took pictures, and local media brimmed with pride.Cy: Ond sylweddolodd Gwyn bod rhywbeth aflwyddiannus wedi digwydd.En: But Gwyn realized something had gone awry.Cy: Roedd y jeli uchelars yn ymddwyn yn anarferol, yn soffrio mwy nag roedd hi wedi'i feddwl.En: The highlighter jellyfish were behaving unusually, suffering more than she had anticipated.Cy: Roedd Gwyn wedyn yn gwybod y buasai'n rhaid iddi bwyllo.En: Gwyn then knew she would have to reflect.Cy: Daeth y digwyddiad eleni â chyfle iddi sôn am bwysigrwydd diogelu cynefinoedd naturiol.En: This year's event provided her with the opportunity to speak about the importance of protecting natural habitats.Cy: Yn eglurder, rhannodd Gwyn yr hyn a ddysgodd am effaith newidiadau i'r cydbwysedd ym myd natur.En: Clearly, Gwyn shared what she learned about the impact of changes on the balance of nature.Cy: "Mae'n rhaid i ni ddysgu gwerthfawrogi natur fel ag y mae, gan osgoi'r temtasiwn i'w wau am ein pleser," meddai hi i'r torfeydd yn ystod cyhoeddiad cyhoeddus.En: "We must learn to appreciate nature as it is, avoiding the temptation to manipulate it for our pleasure," she said to the crowds during a public announcement.Cy: Yn y diwedd, roedd yr ymchwil wyddonol yn ei wynebau, ond roedd hefyd yn golygu cyfle i ddod â'r gymuned yn agosach i’r natur.En: In the end, the scientific research faced challenges, but it also meant an opportunity to bring the community closer to nature.Cy: Roedd Gwyn wedi dysgu drwy'r profiad — fel arweinydd, fel siaradwraig, fel cyfaill i bawb sy'n credu mewn dyfodol ble mae gwarchod natur yn cael ei werthfawrogi.En: Gwyn had learned through the experience—as a leader, as a speaker, as a friend to all who believe in a future where nature conservation is valued.Cy: Yn y nosuan dawel honno, gyda'r golau coch a gwyrdd yn dal i oddef y tanau tân a gwin cynnes yn y dwr, roedd Gwyn yn gwybod y buasai hi'n parhau’n lion newydd ar gyfer natur a’i diogelu.En: On that quiet evening, with the red and green lights still enduring the firelight and warm wine in the air, Gwyn knew she would continue as a new champion for nature and its preservation.
