Story Transcript:

Cy: Goleuadau canhwyllau oedd yr unig ffynhonnell goleuni wrth gerdded i fyny'r llwybr coblog. En: Candle lights were the only source of illumination as one walked up the cobblestone path.

Cy: Mae'r llwybr yn tywys i fyny at driog fawr y meithrinfa drytachau yma yng nghefn gwlad Cymru. En: The path led up to the grand edifice of the dragon nursery here in the Welsh countryside.

Cy: Roedd yr hydref wedi cwmpasu'r ardd gyda lliwiau gwych - aur, coch, a brown. En: Autumn had cloaked the garden with brilliant colors - gold, red, and brown.

Cy: Awyrgylch hudolus oedd yma, oedd wedi'i ddehongli'n fwy serth ar noson Calan Gaeaf. En: There was a magical atmosphere here, made even more enchanted on All Hallows' Eve.

Cy: Mewn un o'r ystafelloedd, roedd Gareth yn llywio drwy'r llyfrgell. En: In one of the rooms, Gareth was navigating through the library.

Cy: Roedd yn berson tawel, ystyriol, ac yn aml â'i drwyn mewn llyfr. En: He was a quiet, thoughtful person, often with his nose in a book.

Cy: Roedd ei fwriad yn glir dros noswaith y gystadleuaeth: ennill cystadleuaeth stori Calan Gaeaf a chwmpasu'r gweddillion ei ofnau. En: His intention for the night of the competition was clear: to win the Halloween story competition and to conquer the remnants of his fears.

Cy: Gallai'r fuddugoliaeth ddenu sylw teulu digon caredig i'w fabwysiadu. En: Victory could attract the attention of a kind enough family to adopt him.

Cy: Ond roedd Gareth yn ansicr am ei allu i ddifyrru 'r gynulleidfa. En: But Gareth was uncertain about his ability to entertain the audience.

Cy: Roedd ei hunan-amheuaeth yn gwasgu ar ei ysgwyddau Heepsango. En: His self-doubt weighed heavily on his shoulders, Heepsango.

Cy: Ond, heddiw, wrth fynd drwy lyfrau'r llyfrgell haddeilad, daeth o hyd i hen lyfr wedi'i gladdu dan lwch. En: But today, as he went through the library's rebuilt collection, he came across an old book buried under dust.

Cy: Roedd yn gorlifo gyda chwedlau traddodiadol Cymru - penlini yn tarodd. En: It overflowed with traditional Welsh tales - his knees trembled.

Cy: Darganfod am Ddinas Goll Cantre'r Gwaelod a hanesion am y Tylwyth Teg. En: Discovering about the Lost City of Cantre'r Gwaelod and stories about the Tylwyth Teg.

Cy: Syniadau'n dechrau llifo. En: Ideas began to flow.

Cy: Y noson gystadleuaethol, roedd pawb yn barod. En: On the night of the competition, everyone was ready.

Cy: Gorau Sioeau, Mi mae i'w dalu plant mewn gwisgoedd fel cloc ar y brîn. En: Best of Shows, children clad in costumes like clockwork.

Cy: Roedd Gareth yn sefyll ar y llwyfan, ei galon yn curo cryf. En: Gareth stood on the stage, his heart beating strongly.

Cy: Wrth iddo adrodd ei stori, daeth y myth gweladwy yn fyw drwy ei eiriau: En: As he narrated his story, the visible myth came alive through his words:

Cy: "Unwaith, mewn oes arall, roedd dinas Cantre'r Gwaelod yn blodeuo dan y môr...," aeth ymlaen Gareth, ei leisiau yn cryf a hyderus, yn goleuo ystafell â'i stori. En: "Once, in another age, the city of Cantre'r Gwaelod flourished beneath the sea...," Gareth continued, his voice strong and confident, illuminating the room with his story.

Cy: Yr hyn sy'n denu oedd ei twist - beth pe bai'r haul yn dal i ddisgleirio drwy'r môr gormesol? En: What drew them in was his twist - what if the sun still shone through the oppressive sea?

Cy: Roedd yr halltair o bleser yn ymddangos yn glir ar wynebau'r gynulleidfa a'r beirniaid. En: The glint of delight appeared clearly on the faces of the audience and judges.

Cy: Ar ddiwedd ei hanes, roedd yn wynebu'r eiliad o wirionedd. En: At the end of his tale, he faced the moment of truth.

Cy: Clapio, o benoedd pawb. En: Applause, from everyone.

Cy: Roedd un cwpl, sy'n ymweld a oedd wedi bod yn ystyried mabwysiadu, wedi myne
