Story Transcript:

Cy: Yng nghanol y gwanwyn, roedd Snowdonia yn ei holl ysblander.
En: In the middle of spring, Snowdonia was in all its splendor.

Cy: Roedd Gareth a Cerys, dau ffrind, yn barod am antur arbennig yn y parc cenedlaethol godidog hwnnw.
En: Gareth and Cerys, two friends, were ready for a special adventure in that magnificent national park.

Cy: Roedd yr awyr yn las a'r blodau'n dechrau blodeuo, gyda'r eirthig yn rhuthro trwy'r awyr.
En: The sky was blue and the flowers were starting to bloom, with the larks rushing through the air.

Cy: Gareth oedd yn gyfrifol am y cynllun.
En: Gareth was responsible for the plan.

Cy: Roedd map manwl gyda fe, a phob cam wedi'i gynllunio'n ofalus.
En: He had a detailed map, with every step carefully planned.

Cy: Ond roedd Cerys, gyda'i meddwl bywiog, yn caru'r annisgwyl.
En: But Cerys, with her lively mind, loved the unexpected.

Cy: Yn aml, roedd hi'n hoffi dilyn ei thrwyn a sefyllfaoedd heb eu cynllunio.
En: Often, she liked to follow her nose and unplanned situations.

Cy: Wrth gerdded i fyny'r llwyfodol, dechreuodd cynhesrwydd y gwanwyn droi'n oerach, annisgwyl.
En: As they walked up the mountain path, the warmth of spring unexpectedly turned colder.

Cy: "Mae'r cymylau'n edrych yn frawychus," meddai Gareth yn ansicr, gan edrych ar y cymylau du yn casglu uwch ei ben.
En: "The clouds look ominous," said Gareth uncertainly, looking at the dark clouds gathering above.

Cy: "Nid yw hyn yn rhan o'r cynllun.
En: "This isn't part of the plan."

Cy: "Wrth iddi ddechrau glawio, gwnaethont eu ffordd yn galetach trwy'r llwybrau garw.
En: As it started to rain, they made their way harder through the rough paths.

Cy: "Gad i ni fynd drwy'r llwybr arall," awgrymodd Cerys, gan ddechrau teimlo bod yr amser yn dod yn brinnach.
En: "Let's go through the other path," suggested Cerys, beginning to feel the time grow shorter.

Cy: "Mae'n rhaid bod lle i gysgodi yno.
En: "There must be a place to shelter there."

Cy: "Pwysodd Gareth ei lygaid, yn paffio gyda syn yna'i gynllun ei hun, a'r methiant i gynllunio am hyn.
En: Gareth narrowed his eyes, wrestling with his own plan and the failure to plan for this.

Cy: Byddidwriaeth Cerys oedd seiliedig ar reddf ac roedd yn swnio'n gwbl danheddgar.
En: Cerys' intuition was based on instinct and sounded completely convincing.

Cy: Ond, teimlodd bod hi'n rhaid gwneud rhywbeth.
En: But, he felt that something had to be done.

Cy: Wrth i'r storm gryfhau, cyd-dynodd y ddau er mwyn dod o hyd i gysgod.
En: As the storm intensified, the two collaborated to find shelter.

Cy: Byddai Cerys yn arwain i ble y maen nhw'n gobeithio fydd cysgod da.
En: Cerys would lead to where they hoped there would be good shelter.

Cy: A dyna oedd, ei phenderfyniad gyda'r amser cywir.
En: And there it was, her decision at the right time.

Cy: Cuddiodd y ddau mewn ogof fach rhwng y creigiau, a roedd y sŵn rhedegog y gwynt yn troi'n adlais distaw, cysur y ogof mewn cyflwr.
En: The two hid in a small cave among the rocks, and the rushing sound of the wind turned into a quiet echo, the comfort of the cave in a state.

Cy: Wedi iddynt setlo, cuddiodd y ddau o dan eu pocedi, gan rannu straeon a gwres.
En: Once settled, the two huddled under their coats, sharing stories and warmth.

Cy: Roedd Gareth yn teimlo rhywbeth newydd: cyffro'r annisgwyl, y gwerth o edmygu pryd y mae'r cynllunio yn methu.
En: Gareth felt something new: the thrill of the unexpected, the value of appreciating when planning fails.

Cy: Yng ngŵydd Cerys, dysgodd am llinell gyfeillgar rhwng bod yn ystyriol a bod yn beiddgar.
En: In Cerys' presence, he learned about the friendly line between being considerate and being daring.

Cy: Roedd y storm yn cilio ac fe wnaethant adael y ogof wrth ymladd â'r eryri o ddim-lle.
En: The storm subsided and they left the cave, battling the snow of nowhere.

Cy: Roedd y wlad hynod wedi ei gweddnewid gan y storm.
En: The remarkable landscape had been transformed by the storm.

Cy: Roedd Snowdonia yn edrych yn wahanol, bron fel pe bai'r byd i gyd yn newydd.
En: Snowdonia looked different, almost as if the entire world was new.

Cy: Ar ben y mynydd, roedd Gareth a Cerys yn sefyll gyda'i gilydd.
En: At the top of the mountain, Gareth and Cerys stood together.

Cy: Gwelai Gareth nawr, bod y gwelliantau a'r annisgwyl wedi dysgu iddo'r gwerth o newid.
En: Gareth could now see that the improvements and the unexpected had taught him the value of change.

Cy: A phlygodd Cerys i beryglon y dull cynnig, gan ddeall na allai pob syniad fod o fudd.
En: And Cerys bent to the hazards of the offered approach, understanding that not every idea could be beneficial.

Cy: Dychwelodd y ddau i lawr, yng nghwmni'r gwanwyn a phenselau newydd a hynod hyfryd, wrth deimlo eu bywydau'n rhannu'n ddyfnach nag o'r blaen.
En: The two returned down, in the company of spring and beautifully new pencils, feeling their lives intertwine more deeply than before.

Cy: Roedd Snowdonia yn llawn syndod hefyd.
En: Snowdonia was full of surprise as well.

Cy: Byddai hynny yn ei gadw yn eu calonnau am byth.
En: That would keep it in their hearts forever.
