Story Transcript:

Cy: Roedd y bore yn llachar wrth i'r haul siglo dros y dinas.
En: The morning was bright as the sun shimmered over the city.

Cy: Ar ben skyscraper marmor, roedd ystafell gyflwyno yn llawn golau.
En: At the top of the marble skyscraper, the presentation room was full of light.

Cy: Roedd Gethin yn edrych allan trwy'r ffenestri gwydr, yn gweld y strydoedd islaw yn troellio fel nifer di-ben-draw o eirth.
En: Gethin was looking out through the glass windows, seeing the streets below swirling like an endless number of bears.

Cy: Yna, gwrandawodd ar lais Mared yn y cefndir, yn galw ei enw.
En: Then, he listened to Mared's voice in the background, calling his name.

Cy: "Mae'n bryd, Gethin, mae pawb ar dân eisiau gweld ein prosiect!
En: "It's time, Gethin, everyone is eager to see our project!"

Cy: "Gethin cefnodd oddi wrth y ffenestr, teimlo nerfusrwydd yn tosio drwy ei stumog.
En: Gethin turned away from the window, feeling nervousness churning through his stomach.

Cy: Roedd ganddo ofn siarad yn gyhoeddus.
En: He was afraid of public speaking.

Cy: Er hynny, roedd y dasg o gyflwyno eu prosiect pensaernïol yn ei fynnu.
En: Nevertheless, the task of presenting their architectural project demanded his attention.

Cy: "Dwi ddim yn siŵr y gallaf wneud hyn," meddai Gethin yn lleddf.
En: "I'm not sure I can do this," Gethin said softly.

Cy: Mared edrychodd arno gyda'i hwyneb yn llawn penderfyniad.
En: Mared looked at him with her face full of determination.

Cy: "Gellir gwneud pob peth.
En: "Anything can be done.

Cy: Dim ond bod rhaid i ti roi cynnig go iawn.
En: You just have to give it a real try."

Cy: "Roedd Mared yn gallu cyflwyno mor naturiol.
En: Mared could present so naturally.

Cy: Fyddai modd iddo byth ddal fyny â'i hyder hi?
En: Could he ever catch up to her confidence?

Cy: Ond roedd Gethin yn gwybod nad oedd ganddo ddewis.
En: But Gethin knew he had no choice.

Cy: Roedd yn rhaid iddo ofyn am help.
En: He had to ask for help.

Cy: "Cei di fy helpu i siarad?
En: "Can you help me speak?"

Cy: " gofynnodd.
En: he asked.

Cy: Roedd ei llais yn ysgafn ac yn ansicr.
En: His voice was light and uncertain.

Cy: Atebodd Mared gydag amynedd nas gwelir yn aml arni.
En: Mared answered with a patience rarely seen in her.

Cy: "Wrth gwrs.
En: "Of course.

Cy: Byddwn yn ymarfer gyda'n gilydd.
En: We will practice together.

Cy: Ond mae rhaid i ti fod yn siŵr dy fod yn dangos dy hun.
En: But you need to make sure you show yourself.

Cy: Ychwanega un stori bersonol i'w plethu yn y cyflwyniad.
En: Add a personal story to weave into the presentation."

Cy: "Trwy ddiwrnod o ymarfer, buodd Mared yn hyfforddi Gethin ar sut i reoli ei ofn a chyfleu eu gweledigaeth ar gyfer adeiladau cynaliadwy.
En: Through a day of practice, Mared coached Gethin on how to manage his fear and convey their vision for sustainable buildings.

Cy: Cymhellai hi ef i gynnwys stori am sut ysbrydolodd pentref ei daid ef waith cynaliadwy.
En: She encouraged him to include a story about how his grandfather's village inspired his sustainable work.

Cy: Roedd y stori yn adeiladu delwedd mewn calon Gethin, yn gwneud y prosiect yn fwy na dim ond cynllun ar bapur.
En: The story built an image in Gethin's heart, making the project more than just a design on paper.

Cy: Daeth yr amser i gyflwyno.
En: The time came to present.

Cy: Roedd cornel o wanwyn yn cyffwrdd â'r tafluniad enfawr a llenwodd y sgrin tu ôl iddyn nhw gyda phlanhigyn uchel ac o reidrapau gwyrddlas.
En: A corner of spring touched the huge projection, filling the screen behind them with a tall plant and green-blue renderings.

Cy: Gethin stopiodd am eiliad i gasglu ei hun cyn camu ymlaen at y llwyfan.
En: Gethin stopped for a moment to collect himself before stepping onto the stage.

Cy: Roedd calonnau'n curo'n ddi-drefn.
En: Hearts were beating irregularly.

Cy: Pan ddechreuodd siarad, roedd ei lais yn eichog trwy'r ystafell.
En: When he began to speak, his voice echoed through the room.

Cy: Trafododd ei syniadau am ddyfodol dinasoedd gwyrdd ac am yr adeilad a gwyllisiwyd yn ôl eu cynigion newydd.
En: He discussed his ideas about the future of green cities and the building that was envisioned according to their new proposals.

Cy: Wrth i'r amser ddraenio, Gethin adroddodd yr hanes am ei daid.
En: As time drained away, Gethin recounted the story about his grandfather.

Cy: Roedd yn gweld y gynulleidfa yn dal eu hanadl, yn cael eu hudo gan ei eiriau.
En: He saw the audience holding their breath, captivated by his words.

Cy: Erbyn y diwedd, llanwyd y stafell gan glapiau.
En: By the end, the room was filled with applause.

Cy: Gwallt Mared cysgodi ei gwên ar draws yr ystafell.
En: Mared's hair shadowed her smile across the room.

Cy: Roeddent ill dau wedi llwyddo nid yn unig trwy sicrhau derbyniad eu prosiect, ond hefyd trwy ddeall ei gilydd yn well.
En: They both had succeeded, not only by ensuring their project's acceptance but also by understanding each other better.

Cy: Nawr, roedd Gethin gyda hyder newydd, a Mared wedi dysgu gwerth amynedd.
En: Now, Gethin had newfound confidence, and Mared had learned the value of patience.

Cy: Wrth iddynt adael yr ystafell, roedd y ddinas o'u blaen yn fwy bywiog ac adeiladol nag erioed.
En: As they left the room, the city before them was more vibrant and constructive than ever.

Cy: Roeddent yn gwybod mai dyma oedd dechrau newydd i'r ddau ohonynt.
En: They knew this was a new beginning for both of them.
