Story Transcript:

Cy: Yr oedd modd clywed cân yr adar yn yr awyr glos o ddŵr pêr yn llifo drwy'r dywarchen.
En: The song of the birds could be heard in the close air, with pure water flowing through the turf.

Cy: Cafodd clychau'r Pasg eu clywed yn y pellter.
En: The bells of Easter were heard in the distance.

Cy: Ond, nid oedd popeth yma i'w weld yn dawel yn Nyffryn y Bannau.
En: But not everything here appeared peaceful in Nyffryn y Bannau (Valley of the Bannau).

Cy: Roedd rhywbeth yn annisgwyl yn trio torri'r heddwch, rhywbeth na allai neb ei egluro.
En: There was something unexpected trying to break the peace, something no one could explain.

Cy: Roedd Rhys yn gwraiddog ei gefn i'r man sicrwydd ble roedd wedi tyfu.
En: Rhys had strong roots in the place of security where he had grown up.

Cy: Aeth Rhys yn dwfn i'r dyffryn yn chwilio am yr atebion.
En: Rhys went deep into the valley searching for answers.

Cy: Nid oedd ei feddwl yn dawel ers i'w dad ddiflannu i mewn i'r gors tywyll blynyddoedd yn ôl.
En: His mind had not been at peace since his father disappeared into the dark moor years ago.

Cy: Bob tro yr aeth Rhys, fe'i denwyd gan y goleuni rhyfedd a ymddangosai ac yna diflannu.
En: Every time Rhys ventured out, he was drawn by the strange light that would appear and then vanish.

Cy: Roedd y marwol cynnen rhwng yr hen chwedl a realiti.
En: There was a mortal conflict between the old legend and reality.

Cy: "Dylai rhywun gadw'n glir o'r gors," meddai Gwen, ei ffrind.
En: "Someone should stay clear of the moor," said Gwen, his friend.

Cy: "Mae'n beryglus.
En: "It's dangerous."

Cy: ""A beth sy'n gwneud mor berchen â'r chwedl?
En: "And what makes the legend so relevant?"

Cy: " atebodd Ioan, cyflawn y methiant i weld yr ofn.
En: responded Ioan, completely missing the fear.

Cy: Ond penderfynodd Rhys wrth benderfynol fod yn rhaid mynd ac edrych dros y mynydd tywodlyd.
En: But Rhys decided with determination that he had to go and look over the sandy mountain.

Cy: Carcharodd gymaint ei meddyliau, achos ei awydd i ganfod ei dad neu hyd yn oed glywed yr un truth am yr oleuni.
En: His thoughts were imprisoned by his desire to find his father or even hear the truth about the light.

Cy: Aeth Rhys, Gwen ac Ioan heibio'r cymylau trwchus.
En: Rhys, Gwen, and Ioan passed by the thick clouds.

Cy: Y coed croffer, y gwichian gwater, a'r niwl yn eu lapio fel chwysting storom.
En: The gnarled trees, creaking branches, and the mist wrapped around them like a swirling storm.

Cy: 'Roedd diwrnod glos gyda'r codwm heb gyfeiriad yn gam hwylus i'r daith, mae'r pasg wedi hen fynd.
En: It was a close day with the descent without direction as a convenient step for the journey, Easter long past.

Cy: Ar y diwedd, dim ond cerddediad trwy'r wirionedd didrim.
En: In the end, there was just a walk through the bleak truth.

Cy: Daeth Rhys i'r llecyn cudd, i fan nad oedd yn gwybod ei fod.
En: Rhys came to the hidden spot, a place he didn't know about.

Cy: Mae'n naws yn lanerch ac yn lle tawel, a'r golau o lantern dlawd, yn chwilio'n ddystaw ar y mesur llwyd.
En: There was a serene atmosphere, a quiet place, and the light from a humble lantern, searching quietly over the gray measure.

Cy: Cafodd lantern hynafol, yr un i'w dad gael.
En: He found an ancient lantern, the...
