Story Transcript:

Cy: Ar fore oer o'r gwanwyn, pan oedd y ddaear wedi'i chuddio â chilt eira byrlymus, roedd Rhiannon yn cerdded trwy erddi tirion Bodnant.
En: On a cold spring morning, when the earth was hidden under a swirling quilt of snow, Rhiannon was walking through the gentle gardens of Bodnant.

Cy: Roedd hi'n teimlo bod yr ardd yn dod yn fyw hyd yn oed yng ngafael gaeaf.
En: She felt that the garden was coming alive even in the grip of winter.

Cy: Yno, tua phen draw'r ardd, roedd digwyddiad arbennig yn mynd rhagddo - sioe flodau elusennol St. Dwynwen.
En: There, towards the far end of the garden, a special event was unfolding - the St. Dwynwen charity flower show.

Cy: Roedd Rhiannon yn werthwr blodau brwd, ei galon yn cael ei hudo gan liwiau a siapiau'r byd planhigion.
En: Rhiannon was a keen flower seller, her heart enchanted by the colors and shapes of the plant world.

Cy: Roedd hi'n chwilio am ysbrydoliaeth newydd, ond hefyd, er cymaint ei bod yn swil, roedd hi'n dyheu am gwrdd â rhywun a oedd yn rhannu ei angerdd.
En: She was searching for new inspiration but also, as shy as she was, she longed to meet someone who shared her passion.

Cy: Tra oedd hi'n symud o un stondin i'r llall, clywodd Rhiannon lais meddal, ond yn llawn gafaelgar, yn adrodd hanes o flodyn unigryw.
En: As she moved from one stall to the next, Rhiannon heard a soft, yet captivating voice narrating the story of a unique flower.

Cy: Wrth edrych i'r cyfeiriad hwnnw, gwelodd Gareth.
En: Looking in that direction, she saw Gareth.

Cy: Gareth oedd ei enw, pensaer amlwg, sy'n dal i wenu ar ôl cyfnod anodd yn ei fywyd personol.
En: Gareth was his name, a prominent architect, who was still smiling after a challenging period in his personal life.

Cy: Roedd ganddo ddiddordeb arbennig yn niwylliant pensaernïaeth tirwedd.
En: He had a particular interest in the culture of landscape architecture.

Cy: Yr oedd ef hefyd i fod yn canolbwyntio ar ei waith, ond rhywle yn ei galon, roedd yr awydd am gysylltiad emosiynol yn tyfu.
En: He was also meant to focus on his work, but somewhere in his heart, the desire for an emotional connection was growing.

Cy: Roedd gan Rhiannon gyfle nawr.
En: Rhiannon now had an opportunity.

Cy: Roedd wedi gwrando'n astud ac yn penderfynu ymladd ei hesgusodoldeb.
En: She had listened intently and decided to fight her hesitancy.

Cy: A troes hithau, gyda phigyn o hyder newydd, at Gareth.
En: She turned, with a spark of new confidence, to Gareth.

Cy: "Llefais am y blodyn unigryw hwnnw," meddai hi yn dawel.
En: "I called out for that unique flower," she said quietly.

Cy: Syrthiodd y ddau i sgwrsio am flodau a phensaernïaeth, ond Hefyd am fywyd.
En: The two fell into a conversation about flowers and architecture, but also about life.

Cy: Cafwyd ysgogi da gan eu sgyrsiau ac ymddechreuodd Gareth agor am ei gynlluniau ar gyfer yr arddyddio a'r dyfodol.
En: Their discussions were motivating, and Gareth began to open up about his plans for gardening and the future.

Cy: Chwarddodd Rhiannon a dywedodd am ei breuddwydion, am ei blodau ac am ei gobeithion personol.
En: Rhiannon laughed and talked about her dreams, her flowers, and her personal hopes.

Cy: Wrth iddynt gerdded, daeth Rhiannon a Gareth o hyd iddyn nhw eu hunain mewn rhan o'r gerddi oedd odidog, dan goeden camellia iaith gaeaf, gyda'i brigau llawn o flodau cochion disglair.
En: As they walked, Rhiannon and Gareth found themselves in a stunning part of the gardens, beneath a winter-blooming camellia tree, with its branches full of bright red flowers.

Cy: Yn y man tawel hwnnw, dan wynebau plau llon y camellia, wnaeth y ddau ildio i'r eiliad hudol.
En: In that quiet place, under the cheerful faces of the camellia, they both surrendered to the magical moment.

Cy: Ar ôl sgwrs ddwys, penderfynodd y ddau gefnu ar y ffolach o eira a pharhau ar eu taith.
En: After a profound conversation, they decided to leave behind the snow’s cover and continue their journey.

Cy: Wrth droi'n ôl, rhannwyd rhifau ffôn.
En: As they turned back, they exchanged phone numbers.

Cy: Roeddent yn teimlo addewid Aberglad a gobaith am y dyfodol.
En: They felt the promise of hope and new beginnings.

En: Moving forward was exciting for them.

Cy: Yr oedd Rhiannon yn teimlo mwy o hyder i gysylltu â phobl.
En: Rhiannon felt more confident about reaching out to people.

Cy: Tybiodd Gareth fod yn barod i roi cynnig ar fywyd newydd.
En: Gareth thought he was ready to try a new life.

Cy: Roedd yr eira'n diflannu wrth iddynt gerdded yn ôl i'r gerddi - a'u bywydau newydd yn dechrau.
En: The snow was disappearing as they walked back to the gardens - and their new lives were beginning.
