En: It was a lovely summer day in Caerdydd. Cy: Roedd y stryd yn llawn dop o bobl yn mwynhau'r hen dreflan. En: The street was packed with people enjoying the old town. Cy: Yng nghanol y dorf roedd Gareth, dyn golau galon ond braidd yn anghofus. En: Among the crowd was Gareth, a cheerful but somewhat forgetful man. Cy: Roedd ei fryd ar weld y dewin stryd fel arfer. En: His intention was to see the street magician as usual. Cy: Roedd awyr yr haf yn cario arogl caféo reis gorffenedig o'r caffis gerllaw, ac roedd siopau lliwgar yn gwenu ar y cerddwyr heibio. En: The summer air carried the scent of finished rice cakes from the nearby cafes, and colorful shops smiled at the passing pedestrians. Cy: Gareth, wedi'i swyno gan berfformiad y dewin, roedd wedi anghofio'r amser. En: Gareth, enchanted by the magician's performance, had lost track of time. Cy: Roedd straeon hudol, sioe gwirioneddol, ac ar unwaith roedd wedi colli ei hun ym myd byd arall. En: The captivating stories and truly entertaining show had immediately transported him to another world. Cy: Ond oedd problem. En: But there was a problem. Cy: Roedd gareth yn dyddio Megan heddi' wrth ginio. En: Gareth had a lunch date with Megan today. Cy: Ei swyddogaeth: dod o hyd i'w gar a chyrraedd ar amser. En: His task: find his car and arrive on time. Cy: Wrth geisio cofio lle parciodd, roedd Gareth yn cael ei wynebu gan llinellau hir o geir, pob un yn edrych yr un fath. En: While trying to remember where he had parked, Gareth was faced with long rows of cars, each looking the same. Cy: Roedd pob adran golygdd yn ymddangos yn ddi-ddiwedd o sefyllfa o chwith. En: Every parking section seemed like an endless puzzle. Cy: "O, diolch yn fawr," meddai Gareth drist, "ia, mi fydd rhaid i mi wneud rhywbeth am hyn." En: "Oh, thank goodness," Gareth said sadly, "yes, I'll have to do something about this." Cy: Penderfynodd Gareth fynd yn ôl i lle roedd e. En: Gareth decided to go back to where he was. Cy: Diddanwyd ei atgof gan gân y dewin. En: His memory was delighted by the magician's song. Cy: Roedd y môr o geir yn llai o ofn wrth iddo ganu'r gân: "Tacsi drwco, tacsi blown, padell hud, llawent bron." En: The sea of cars became less daunting as he sang the song: "Tacsi drwco, tacsi blown, padell hud, llawent bron." Cy: Gyda'r alaw, hir beichus, oedd côn yn wain i'w galon, fe gododd cynhyrfu. En: With the long, burdensome melody, a cone warmed his heart, and he became excited. Cy: Wrth fegalu, roedd atgof melys o eiriau hudol yn glir ac amlwg: "Adran Dodd." En: Murmuring, the sweet memory of magical words became clear and evident: "Adran Dodd." Cy: Amheuaeth a dygiad yn ddibynol, cofiodd Gareth y cerdyn gyda'r enw hefyd, ac mewn congl bell o adran honno, aeth cer y cyfarwydd. En: With a blend of suspicion and conviction, Gareth remembered the card with the name too, and in a far corner of that section, he went toward the familiar car. Cy: Heb golli amser, aeth Gareth at ei ffôn, galwodd Dylan, ei ffrind go iawn, i lywio allan o'r lot brysur. En: Wasting no time, Gareth took out his phone and called Dylan, his true friend, to guide him out of the busy lot. Cy: "Gareth!" beichiodd Dylan, "Ble wyt ti?" En: "Gareth!" yelled Dylan, "Where are you?" Cy: "Gwgwn o'r parcio," meddai Gareth, cloch i chi glywed yr helpiant gyfagos. "Dinistr brysur Wyatt!" En: "Confused about the parking," said Gareth, with relief at the nearby assistance. "Busy destruction Wyatt!" Cy: Gyda chymorth Dylan, llwyddodd i lywio drwy'r cerbydau, a daeth Gareth allan gyda gwynt ei lygaid ar yr awyr goch. En: With Dylan's help, he managed to navigate through the vehicles, and Gareth emerged with the wind in his eyes on the red air. Cy: Cawsant galon o wyrdd ar y diwedd, gyda gan Megan clinigol o gymysgu a darganfod rhywbeth newydd. En: They found a heart of green in the end, with Megan clinically mixing and discovering something new. Cy: Roedd Megan yn aros, yn gwenu. "Ble'r oeddet ti? Straeon, gareth," hi'n golchi. En: Megan was waiting, smiling. "Where were you? Stories, Gareth," she teased. Cy: "Ah, Megan,” atebai Gareth, yn colli, y swynot haws. "Roedd dewin... a cherdyn yn dod ac ireiddio. Mae'r magiau yma, ti'n deall." Trwyddai hi chwerthin, a mwy unrhyw fwy oedd hanes iddo. En: "Ah, Megan," replied Gareth, loosening, the charm easier. "There was a magician... and a card appeared and energised. The magic is here, you see." She laughed, and more than anything, it was a tale for him. Cy: Roedd yn wybodaeth maith ar gael ar bwysigrwydd bysedd. En: It was a long-gathered awareness of the importance of fingers. Cy: Cynnar nawr, addawodd Gareth geisio dyfroedd a golygiad newydd. En: Early on now, Gareth promised to try new directions and editing. Cy:
