Story Transcript:

Cy: Roedd Gareth yn sefyll yn ymyl carreg fawr yn y Brecon Beacons.
En: Gareth was standing next to a large stone in the Brecon Beacons.

Cy: Roedd yr awyrgylch yn llawn arogl dail sychion, a'r gwynt yn symud trwy'r coed fel cân hud.
En: The atmosphere was filled with the scent of dry leaves, and the wind moved through the trees like a magical song.

Cy: Roedd y mynyddoedd yn eu harddwch yn ymestyn dros y moelni, a rhoddai'r darlun ysblennydd gyfle i Gareth ddangos wrth ei fyfyrwyr harddwch hanes Cymru.
En: The mountains, in their beauty, stretched across the barren land, and the splendid picture provided Gareth the opportunity to show his students the beauty of Wales's history.

Cy: "Mae yna lawer i'w ddysgu yma," meddai Gareth yn frwdfrydig wrth y grŵp bach o blant.
En: "There's a lot to learn here," said Gareth enthusiastically to the small group of children.

Cy: Crëodd hanes ei famgu, a llawer o hanesion eraill, ddelwedd yn ei feddwl.
En: His grandmother's history, along with many other tales, painted an image in his mind.

Cy: "Dyma le lle roedd sawl digwyddiad hynod wedi digwydd.
En: "This is a place where many remarkable events have happened."

Cy: "Ond roedd Eira, oedd yn edrych yn ddiog ac yn syllu ar ei ffon drwy'r amser, yn anwybyddu'i ymroddiad.
En: But Eira, who looked bored and was staring at her phone all the time, ignored his dedication.

Cy: Roedd golwg o ddiflastod ar ei hwyneb, a ni chafodd Gareth ond ysgafn siom ohoni.
En: There was an expression of boredom on her face, and Gareth felt only mild disappointment in her.

Cy: Roedd am iddi deimlo nerth hanes.
En: He wanted her to feel the power of history.

Cy: Roedd rhywbeth yn y Beacons yma a allai newid ei barn, os byddai'n gwrando.
En: There was something in these Beacons that could change her mind, if she listened.

Cy: Wrth i'r niwl trwchus ymgasglu dros y tir, roedd llawer o'r myfyrwyr yn dechrau teimlo yn nerfus.
En: As the thick mist gathered over the land, many of the students began to feel nervous.

Cy: Penderfynodd Gareth gymryd grŵp bach, sy'n cynnwys Eira, i gadnoddau cuddiedig ar y safle.
En: Gareth decided to take a small group, including Eira, to hidden hollows on the site.

Cy: Roedd yn bwriadu rhannu stori arbennig am gysylltiad personol ag un o'r hanesion hynaf.
En: He intended to share a special story about a personal connection to one of the oldest tales.

Cy: "Dewch, mae'n rhaid i chi weld hwn," aeth ymlaen, gan annog Eira i sefyll wrth ei ochr.
En: "Come on, you have to see this," he went on, encouraging Eira to stand by his side.

Cy: Gyda phob cam, roedd mwy i'w ddarganfod.
En: With every step, there was more to discover.

Cy: O dan glymu cwrlid o blanhigion y gellid gweld clwydi hen eu dydd, weddillion cartrefi ei hynafiaid.
En: Under a carpet of plants, one could see relics of old gates and the remnants of his ancestors' homes.

Cy: Roedd Gareth wedi dysgu o dair siwrnai ac mae effaith ei eiriau yn gallu bod yn gryf iawn.
En: Gareth had learned from three trips, and the impact of his words could be very powerful.

Cy: Ond roedd rhaid iddo wneud Eira deall.
En: But he needed to make Eira understand.

Cy: "Yma," dechreuodd Gareth a hisian yn rhyfedd i'r niwl.
En: "Here," began Gareth, whispering strangely to the mist.

Cy: "Dyma lle lleiafrifol deulu fi oedd yn byw, mewn...
