Cy: Mae haul yr haf yn disgleirio dros bentref Portmeirion, gan wneud y lliwiau yn y waliau Eidalaidd yn fwy disglair fyth.
En: The summer sun shines over the village of Portmeirion, making the colors on the Italianate walls even more vivid.
Cy: Wrth gerdded trwy'r strydoedd cul, gwelwyd Eira, artist mentrus, yn ymchwilio ar gyfer ei phrosiect newydd.
En: Walking through the narrow streets, Eira, a daring artist, was researching for her new project.
Cy: Cytunodd hi i gyfarfod â Gareth, hanesydd tawel a chariadus ar ddiwylliant Cymreig, am eu dyddiad cyntaf.
En: She had agreed to meet Gareth, a quiet historian with a passion for Welsh culture, on their first date.
Cy: Er bod Eira yn llawn cyffro a syniadau, roedd hi'n awyddus i ddod o hyd i ffyrdd newydd o ysbrydoli ei gwaith.
En: Although Eira was full of excitement and ideas, she was eager to find new ways to inspire her work.
Cy: Ar y llaw arall, roedd Gareth yn swil, ond yn llawn gwybodaeth am hanes Cymru.
En: On the other hand, Gareth was shy but full of knowledge about Wales' history.
Cy: Roedd yn gobeithio agor ei galon a rhannu ei gariad at hanes heb gael ei gysgodi gan natur hyddysg Eira.
En: He hoped to open his heart and share his love for history without being overshadowed by Eira's knowledgeable nature.
Cy: Roeddent yn crwydro'r pentref rhyfeddol hwn, yr adfeiliau Porth Meirion yn nofio mewn goleuni euraid.
En: They wandered through this marvelous village, the ruins of Porth Meirion bathed in golden light.
Cy: Dechreuodd Eira siarad yn frwdfrydig am y darn o jêd a'i swynodd, ond roedd Gareth yn tynnu'n ôl ychydig.
En: Eira began to speak enthusiastically about a piece of jade that fascinated her, but Gareth withdrew a little.
Cy: Roedd ofn wrthynt siarad yn rhydd.
En: He was afraid to speak freely.
Cy: Teimlai Eira ei fod yn gwthio rhy bell.
En: Eira felt she might be pushing too hard.
Cy: Stopiodd Gareth wrth un pwynt, o flaen golygfa hyfryd sy’n edrych dros aber yr Afon Dwyryd.
En: Gareth paused at one point, in front of a beautiful view overlooking the Afon Dwyryd estuary.
Cy: Gyda phanig tawel, penderfynodd Gareth gymryd cam dewr.
En: With quiet panic, Gareth decided to take a brave step.
Cy: "Dwi eisiau dweud stori am Lady Bronwen," meddai ef, ei lais yn dynn ond penderfynol.
En: "I want to tell a story about Lady Bronwen," he said, his voice tense but determined.
Cy: Cafodd ei eiriau effaith fawr ar Eira.
En: His words had a great effect on Eira.
Cy: Gwrandawodd hi'n astud, yn syllu ar ei lygaid yn bryderus.
En: She listened intently, gazing into his eyes with concern.
Cy: Esboniodd Gareth, gyda'i lais yn cryfhau wrth iddo fynd yn fwy cyfforddus, sut y daeth Bronwen o Gymru i Wermant y Dywysog, ac eu prosiectau yn dod â dau ddiwylliant at ei gilydd.
En: Gareth explained, his voice strengthening as he became more comfortable, how Bronwen came from Wales to the court of the Prince, and their projects that brought two cultures together.
Cy: Roedd y stori'n cyffwrdd Eira yn ddwfn.
En: The story touched Eira deeply.
Cy: Gwnaeth tristwch a chariad Bronwen ysbrydoli Eira i wneud rhywbeth newydd.
En: The sadness and love of Bronwen inspired Eira to do something new.
Cy: "Gadewch i ni greu rhywbeth cydgyfeiriol," atebodd Eira yn gwên.
En: "Let's create something collaborative," Eira replied with a smile.
