Story Transcript:
Cy: Ar fore llwyd o hydref, roedd y gwynt yn chwythu drwy goedwig Snowdonia.
En: On a gray autumn morning, the wind was blowing through the forests of Snowdonia.
Cy: Roedd Ioan, Carys, a Gwen yn paratoi i gychwyn ar daith maes i safle hanesyddol.
En: Ioan, Carys, and Gwen were preparing to set off on a field trip to a historical site.
Cy: Roedd Ioan yn edrychog, ond yn cadw ei ofnau am y mynyddoedd yn gyfrinach.
En: Ioan appeared calm, but kept his fears about the mountains a secret.
Cy: Roedd ei atgofion o ddamwain yn y gorffennol yn dal ar ei meddwl.
En: His memories of a past accident were still on his mind.
Cy: “Ti’n barod?” holodd Carys, ei wyneb yn llawn cyffro.
En: "Are you ready?" asked Carys, her face full of excitement.
Cy: Gwenu roedd hi bob amser wrth feddwl am ddiwrnodau fel hyn.
En: She always smiled when thinking of days like this.
Cy: “Ydw, wrth gwrs,” atebodd Ioan, gan guddio ei bryder tu mewn ei lais.
En: "Yes, of course," replied Ioan, hiding his anxiety behind his voice.
Cy: Roedd Carys yn ei gefnogi heb sylwi ar ei ofn.
En: Carys supported him without noticing his fear.
Cy: Gwen, eu hathrawes hanes, oedd yn arwain y grŵp.
En: Gwen, their history teacher, was leading the group.
Cy: "Byddwn ni’n dysgu am y bryniau uchel lle’r oedd y rhufeiniad yn edrych dros Gymru," eglurodd Gwen wrth iddynt ddechrau cerdded.
En: "We’ll be learning about the high hills where the Romans looked over Wales," explained Gwen as they began walking.
Cy: Roedd hi’n ddynes garedig ac addysgiadol, bob amser yn gwneud yn siŵr bod ei myfyrwyr yn dysgu rhywbeth newydd.
En: She was a kind and educational woman, always making sure her students learned something new.
Cy: Wrth i'r llwybr fynd yn fwy serth, dechreuodd Ioan deimlo ei galon yn curo'n gyflymach.
En: As the path grew steeper, Ioan began to feel his heart beat faster.
Cy: Roedd y bryniau hyn yn paratoi her iddo.
En: These hills posed a challenge for him.
Cy: Credai ei fod yn hoffi hanes, ond roedd y ffordd i'r safle yn adgofio'r ddamwain tal dirgel o’i orffennol.
En: He believed he liked history, but the path to the site reminded him of the mysterious accident from his past.
Cy: Cyrraedd y dewis— dyma’r tro lle roedd yn gorfod wynebu ei ofn.
En: Arriving at a decision—this was the point where he had to face his fears.
Cy: Arosai Ieir fel arfer mewn man diogel, ond roedd y cyfle i archwilio safle cyfoethog mewn hanes yn ei demtio.
En: He usually stayed in a safe place, but the opportunity to explore a site rich in history tempted him.
Cy: Roedd Carys yn gwylio Ioan gydag awydd i’w helpu.
En: Carys watched Ioan with a desire to help.
Cy: "Ti’n iawn, Ioan?" gofynnodd hi'n bwyllog.
En: "Are you okay, Ioan?" she asked calmly.
Cy: “Ydw,” meddai Ioan o’r diwedd, “Dw i am roi cynnig ar hwn.”
En: “Yes,” said Ioan finally, “I want to give this a try.”
Cy: Gyda hynny, dechreuodd ddilyn Gwen a'r grŵp i fyny’r llethrau serth.
En: With that, he began to follow Gwen and the group up the steep slopes.
Cy: Gwen yn arwain, a stori Ion yn dechre meddwl, roedd Ioan yn cofio ei barch tuag at hanes Cymru.
En: With Gwen leading, and the story beginning to unfold in his mind, Ioan recalled his respect for the history of Wales.
Cy: Roedd pob cam yn uchel a phob ongl yn her, ond roedd ei benderfyniad yn parhau.
En: Each step was high and each angle a challenge, but his determination remained.
Cy: Wrth iddynt gyrraedd copa'r bryn, roedd y golygfeydd yn wefreiddiol.
En: As they reached the top of the hill, the views were breathtaking.
Cy: Roedd y cymylau'n symud yn gloi wrth eu traed a’r bryniau’n llawn hanes o’u blaen.
En: The clouds moved swiftly at their feet and the hills full of history lay before them.
Cy: Roedd pwynt hanesyddol Gwen yn dweud stori.
En: The historical point that Gwen explained told a story.
Cy: “Gallwch chi weld lle roedd yr hen wersylloedd?” sialensiodd Gwen.
En: “Can you see where the old camps were?” challenged Gwen.
Cy: “Ar y dyddiau glir, gallai y rhufeiniad weld pob ciwbl o ardal yn rhyfeddol.”
En: “On clear days, the Romans could see every inch of the area remarkably.”
Cy: Yn sydyn, teimlai Ioan yn ddiogel ac wedi’i gryfhau.
En: Suddenly, Ioan felt safe and strengthened.
Cy: Roedd wedi wynebu ei ofn ac wedi pasio drwy gystadleuaeth ei feddyliau.
En: He had faced his fears and passed through his mental battles.
Cy: Gan eu profiad, roedd wedi dysgu y gall gwynebu ofnau ddod â theimlad difyr o gyflawniad.
En: Through this experience, he had learned that facing fears can bring a thrilling sense of accomplishment.
Cy: Doedd Carys ddim ond yn edrych gyda balchder, “Dwi wastad yn gwybod y gallet ti wneud e, Ioan,” meddai gyda chariad yn ei llais.
En: Carys just looked on with pride, "I always knew you could do it, Ioan," she said with love in her voice.
Cy: A dyna lle roedd eu taith hanesyddol yn dod i ben, gyda Ioan nawr yn gwybod bod camu allan o’i barth cysur yn gallu arwain at ddarganfyddiadau bendigedig.
En: And so their historical journey came to an end, with Ioan now knowing that stepping out of his comfort zone could lead to wonderful discoveries.
Cy: Roedd ein broydd yn llawn straeon a chyflawniadau newydd i’w cael.
En: Our regions are full of stories and new achievements to uncover.

Cy: Roedd awel oer yn cario arogl mwsogl a duonbicyllawr, gan fywiogi'r llwybrau.
En: A cold breeze carried the scent of moss and bilberries, invigorating the paths.
Cy: Teimlodd Eira fod hyn yn dynged, amser y penwythnos Calan Gaeaf i wneud iawn am y blynyddoedd rhwng hi a'i brawd, Llyr.
En: Eira felt this was destiny, the time of the Halloween weekend to make up for the years between her and her brother, Llyr.
Cy: Trodd Llyr ei lygaid i'r sgrin ffôn yn ei law a dilyn ei chwaer heb fwriad i ddechrau sgwrs.
En: Llyr turned his eyes to the phone screen in his hand and followed his sister without intent to start a conversation.
Cy: Telgodd Eira wynt fychan trwy ei thrwyn, teimlodd angen mawr i geisio troi’r tawelwch yn rhywbeth gwell.
En: Eira exhaled slightly through her nose, feeling a strong need to try to turn the silence into something better.
Cy: Roedd hi eisiau cysylltu â Llyr, nid dim ond cerdded ochr yn ochr mewn tawelwch.
En: She wanted to connect with Llyr, not just walk side by side in silence.
Cy: “Oes, ddylet ti weld hyn o bryd, Llyr, yng nghanol yr hydref?
En: "Shouldn't you be seeing this now, Llyr, in the midst of autumn?"
Cy: ” cychwynnodd hi, gan edrych dros ei hysgwydd ar y golygfeydd.
En: she began, looking over her shoulder at the views.

Cy: Gobeithiodd na fyddai’n anwybyddu’r alwad am hir.
En: She hoped he wouldn't ignore the call for long.
Cy: Roedd gan Eira gynllun, dull a fyddai, gobeithio, yn arwain at wyneb-i-wyneb ag ymladdgar Lÿr.
En: Eira had a plan, an approach that would, hopefully, lead to a face-to-face with the combative Llyr.
Cy: Wrth eu troed, dechreuodd y cawod o law ddiysgol a gwaeddodd Eira wrth deimlo mabigliad oer yn llifo’n daear eu harafau.
En: At their feet, a sudden shower began, and Eira shouted as she felt cold trickles running over their paths.
Cy: “Mae’n well i ni ffindio lloches arnyn ni’n barod,” a allai hi.
En: "We should find shelter, ready or not," she managed.
Cy: Llyr yn synnu nawr, ac awgrymodd: “Ydy hynny wir angenrheidiol?
En: Llyr was surprised now and suggested, "Is that really necessary?"
Cy: ”Penderfynodd Eira bod angen gwneud mwy nag awgrymu nawr.
En: Eira decided more than a suggestion was needed now.
Cy: “Llyr, mae angen i ni siarad,” dywedodd yn rheubad neges.
En: "Llyr, we need to talk," she said in a direct message.
Cy: “Mae’n amser wynebu ein gorffennol.
En: "It's time to face our past."
Cy: ” Roedd Llyr yn ngadael y ffôn ei law am yna, ei wyneb yn datgan synnwyr o agorededd.
En: Llyr let the phone drop from his hand then, his face expressing a sense of openness.
Cy: Mewn llonyddwch ystyriaeth, roedd y ddau yn edrych ar ei gilydd.
En: In the quiet of the moment, they looked at each other.
Cy: Gofynnodd Eira'n gynnil: “Pa mor hir byddwn ni’n gadael pethau heb gael eu dweud?
En: Eira gently asked, "How long will we leave things unsaid?"
Cy: ”Wrth iddyn nhw aros y cawod i ffrwyno, cychwynnodd Llyr siarad, ei lais yn drwm â gyfriniol: “Byddai'n gorau i ddod â phopeth i'r wylofain, yn hytrach nag hyd yn hir.
En: As they waited for the shower to relent, Llyr began to speak, his voice heavy with meaning: "It would be best to bring everything to the open, rather than let it linger."
Cy: ” Roedd geiriau Llyr yn arwydd o’r llun haul newydd yn eu perthynas.
En: Llyr's words were a sign of a new dawn in their relationship.
Cy: Pan wnaeth Llyr gamgymeriad ar drawiad llithrig, dalodd Eira gyflym, gan achub ei ddisgyniad.
En: When Llyr slipped on a slippery patch, Eira quickly caught him, preventing his fall.
Cy: “Diolch i ti am hynny,” meddodd Llyr, gan edrych arno’n ddiolchgar ac yn newydd.
En: "Thank you for that," Llyr said, looking at her gratefully and anew.
Cy: Roedd yn foment lle nad oedd angen mwy o eiriau - dealltynt.
En: It was a moment where no more words were needed—they understood.
Cy: Roedd rhwystriau yn dod i ben.
En: Barriers were falling.
Cy: Wedi i'r cawod sefyll, dechreuant ychydig yn fwy ysgafn, eu sgwrsion bellach yn llawn dealltwriaeth newydd ac undod.
En: As the shower stopped, they began to walk a little lighter, their conversations now full of new understanding and unity.
Cy: Wrth droi’r gornel ar y llwybr, oedd y golygfeydd tuag at fynyddoedd yn croesawu â gwlithen haul - fel dechreuadau newydd yn cyfeirio atynt.

Story Transcript:
Cy: Roedd awel arogli coffi yn llenwi'r rostir yng Nghaerdydd.
En: A breeze smelling of coffee filled the rostir in Caerdydd.
Cy: Roedd yn amser prysur, fel bob amser, gyda'r ystaff ymlaen ag addurno'r safle ar gyfer Calan Gaeaf.
En: It was a busy time, as always, with the staff forward in decorating the site for Calan Gaeaf.
Cy: Emrys ac Carys, brawd a chwaer, oedd wedi gweithio yno dros y blynyddoedd ers diwedd eu tad.
En: Emrys and Carys, brother and sister, had worked there over the years since the end of their father.
Cy: Ond heddiw, roedd rhywbeth anarferol wedi digwydd.
En: But today, something unusual had happened.
Cy: Yn y bore, wrth i Emrys glirio blwch llyfrau hen a erledig o'r oriel ieuengaf, cafodd lythyrau wedi’u lapio mewn rhuban o liw gwin cyfoethog.
En: In the morning, as Emrys cleared a box of old and hunted books from the youngest gallery, he found letters wrapped in a ribbon of rich wine color.
Cy: "Carys, edrych ar hwn!" ebe Emrys, ei lais yn ysgytiog rhwng sioc a chwilfrydedd.
En: "Carys, look at this!" said Emrys, his voice shaky between shock and curiosity.
Cy: Daeth Carys ymlaen, ei llygaid yn ymestyn.
En: Carys came forward, her eyes widening.
Cy: "Llythyrau? O ble?" Ei dannedd yn fflachio mewn gwên frwdfrydig.
En: "Letters? From where?" Her teeth flashed in an enthusiastic grin.
Cy: "Mae'n siŵr bod marciau arnynt... Mmm, edrych!"
En: "There must be marks on them... Mmm, look!"
Cy: Roedd y llythyrau wedi'u hysgrifennu mewn llaw ysgrifen dirgel, yn trafod dirwriaethau teuluol ac anturiaethau a oedd yn ymddangos yn anghyfarwydd iddynt.
En: The letters were written in a mysterious handwriting, discussing family intricacies and adventures that seemed unfamiliar to them.
Cy: Emrys, priod â rhesymeg crafog, ysgwyd ei ben.
En: Emrys, married to razor-sharp logic, shook his head.
Cy: "Mae'n rhaid bod hen straeon ydy'r rhain."
En: "These must be old stories."
Cy: Ond roedd Carys, nug enaid wiwer, yn fentro i'r dirgelion hynny, ymestyn llaw i annog ei brawd.
En: But Carys, a squirrel's soul, ventured into those mysteries, reaching out to urge her brother.
Cy: "Emrys, dyma ein cyfle! Bydd hyn yn datgloi ein gorffennol."
En: "Emrys, this is our chance! This will unlock our past."
Cy: Roedd Emrys yn amheus.
En: Emrys was skeptical.
Cy: "Beth os yw hyn yn cyflwyno trafferthion newydd? Mae ein bywydau'n iawn fel ag y maen nhw."
En: "What if this brings new troubles? Our lives are okay as they are."
Cy: Daeth yr otsiad dyddiau lawer o siwrne heb fentro cesail Emrys ymlaen, ond diddordeb a dyfalbarhad Carys yn ennill.
En: The urging of many days of untouched journeys did not venture beyond Emrys's protective arm, but Carys's interest and perseverance won out.
Cy: Fe wnaethant ddechrau tynnu rhanau o leinau dirgel a allai arwain at leoliad hudol.
En: They began to draw parts of mysterious threads that could lead to an enchanting location.
Cy: "Llythrennol dyn ni dal yn atgofion plentyndod," meddai Emrys, yn plygeinio i'r antur sydd leiafrifol.
En: "Literal leftovers of our childhood," said Emrys, reluctant to delve into the adventurous minority.
Cy: Un prynhawn, wrth iddi wawrio dros Gaeaf, fe ddechreuon nhw fynd i fan oedd yn gysylltiedig â’u hatgofion plentyndod.
En: One afternoon, as it dawned over Winter, they began to go to a place linked to their childhood memories.
Cy: Lle maes chwarae unig a hen adeilad i blant oedd yno.
En: A solitary playground and an old building for children were there.
Cy: Ond yn ei hanes cudd, roedd cyfrinach.
En: But in its hidden history, there was a secret.
Cy: Roeddent yn disgwyl, amneidio calonog, a gweld a oedd gadael neu fynd heibio i'r dim.
En: They waited, nodding heartened, to see whether they would leave or pass by the nothingness.
Cy: Fe gurodd eu calonnau'n gyflym.
En: Their hearts beat quickly.
Cy: Yr hyn gawsant oedd trysor heb ei gydnabod.
En: What they found was an unrecognized treasure.
Cy: Absenoldeb athrylith neu dealltwriaeth o bwrpas gwych, ond deallasant y cysylltiad oedd wedi creu â'u tad nawr wedi esgus y cyffiniau llechu.
En: The absence of genius or understanding for a great purpose, but they understood the connection that had been created with their father now, disguising the lurking outskirts.
Cy: Fel Emrys a Carys yn sefyll y tu hwnt i'r waliau distaw, roeddent yn darganfod dealltwriaeth newydd o'u teulu, tawelwch newydd o undod.
En: As Emrys and Carys stood beyond the silent walls, they discovered a new understanding of their family, a new peace of unity.
Cy: Pan cerddwyd o'r safle, Emrys am y tro cyntaf yn sylweddoli mawreddi'r anhysbys.
En: When they walked away from the site, Emrys for the first time realized the majesty of the unknown.
Cy: A chyda chryfder newydd, eisteddodd ei sorod arno fo a dywedodd, "Rydw i'n falch ein bod yn mentro, Carys."
En: And with new strength, his sister sat beside him and said, "I'm glad we ventured, Carys."
Cy: Roedd y cyfan yn cynnig cudd-wybodaeth ar eu dynoliaeth, a dyna oedd dechrau'n wir o gyfrinachau eraill i ddod.
En: It all offered hidden wisdom on their humanity, and that was truly the beginning of other secrets to come.
