En: The air was mild with the freshness of spring, with the fragrance of the sea wafting over from the harbor.

En: The moments were torn as everything changed when they discovered a piece of silver on the ground.

Cy: Roedd Carys a Dylan ill dau'n cyrraedd ar yr un pryd, ac ni allent helpu ond chwerthin wrth eu gilydd.
En: Both Carys and Dylan reached it at the same time, and could not help but laugh at each other.

Cy: "Mae arna' i angen hwn i fy mhrosiect celf," meddai Carys gydag awgrym o gariad yn ei llais.
En: "I need this for my art project," said Carys with a hint of affection in her voice.

Cy: "A ninnau ohonian ni, pensarnïaeth yw'r ffordd ations dwylo i gasglu hen straeon," ymatebodd Dylan gyda gwen.
En: "And for us, architecture is the way for hands to collect old stories," responded Dylan with a smile.

Cy: Siŵr o hynny ymlaen, cwymprwyd i gytundeb, roeddent yn mynd i gymryd erfyn bach arian i lawr at siop goffi.
En: Sure enough, a deal was struck, and they decided to take the small piece of silver down to the coffee shop.

En: Under the warm sun of that spring afternoon, curiosity pervading the county, Carys and Dylan decided to collaborate on a project that combined nature and urbanism, color and form.

Cy: Erbyn i'r dydd ddod i ben, roedd Carys wedi darganfod ei fflam celfyddydol unwaith eto, tra bond Tref Caerdydd a'r bae â gwefr newydd yn carlamu trwy lygad Dylan.
En: By the end of the day, Carys had rediscovered her artistic flame, while the bond between Tref Caerdydd and the bay surged with new energy through Dylan's vision.

Cy: Ar ddechrau, uno artist a sawl cynnydd fel y dŵr sy'n llithro dros gaethes-gylch.
En: Initially, uniting artist and progress like water slipping over a catchment circle.

Cy: O gel nodweddion ei faes, newidiad y cafwyd awyrofogydd trwy fabwysiadu; damcanu cefnogwraig yn blodeuo.
En: From the features of his field, change found an aerodynamics through adoption; hypothesizing supporter blooming.

Cy: Nawr, gyda phrosiect ar y gweill a chynlluniau i gydweithio, y mimosa prysur yn dathlu ei blanhigyn yn flodau o greadigrwydd yn eu hoes dwy; dau hanner yn uno mewn undod.
En: Now, with a project in progress and plans to collaborate, the hasty mimosa celebrating its plant in creative blossoms in their double age; two halves united in harmony.

Cy: Ac felly, ar draethlin y bae, trosglwyddwyd cerdded tros eich eu edafedd arbennig gyda'u hunain, yn barod i adael i'r siapiau a'r syniadau darlunio rhamant a hefyd prosiect newydd gwerth chweil o gipio.
En: And so, on the shoreline of the bay, they walked over their special threads with themselves, ready to let the shapes and ideas paint romance and also a new worthwhile project to capture.

Cy: Dyma gychwyn y ffordd galluog newydd ac afradloni nhw gyda gobaith.
En: This is the beginning of a new capable path and wasting no time, they embraced it with hope.
