Story Transcript:

Cy: Drwy'r niwl trwchus yn y Gwap Caenig, roedd y farchnad wedi deffro i fywyd unwaith eto.
En: Through the thick mist in the Gwap Caenig, the market had come to life once again.

Cy: Roedd Bronwen, â gwên fawr ar ei hwyneb, wedi gosod ei stondin ger coeden helyg enfawr.
En: Bronwen, with a big smile on her face, had set up her stall near a huge willow tree.

Cy: Ar ei bwrdd roedd potiau a phlanhigion o wahanol siapau a meintiau, ond y dydd hwnnw 'roedd ei hymffrost ychwanegol yn deillio o wlad brenhinol, neu felly 'roedd hi'n credu.
En: On her table were pots and plants of various shapes and sizes, but that day her additional pride derived from a royal land, or so she believed.

Cy: "Dyma llysiau'r dywysoges," meddai Bronwen yn llawen, yn ogystal â cheisio denu sylw Emrys, a oedd yn arwain taith arall o amgylch y gwlypdir gleision.
En: "Here are the princess's herbs," said Bronwen cheerfully, also trying to catch the attention of Emrys, who was leading another tour around the green wetlands.

Cy: Roedd ei frychau piwis yn dangos ei ddiddordeb wrth iddo wenu yn ôl arni.
En: His freckled face showed his interest as he smiled back at her.

Cy: Ond roedd Gwilym yn syllu, ei fysedd yng ngliniau'n gorweddol.
En: But Gwilym was staring, his fingers on horizontal knees.

Cy: "Nid hynny yw llysiau," meddai Gwilym yn ddrwgdybus, ei lais bron fel plismon yr anghywirdeb botanegol.
En: "That's not herbs," said Gwilym suspiciously, his voice almost like a policeman of botanical error.

Cy: "Mewn gwirionedd, mistletoe yw hynny.
En: "That's actually mistletoe."

Cy: " Roedd ei lais yn ddigon uchel i ddenu golygon atebol o'r criw marchnad.
En: His voice was loud enough to draw responsive glances from the market crowd.

Cy: Crwydrodd embaras trwy wyneb bronwen fel ton ar lan y môr, ond nid oedd hi am ildio.
En: Embarrassment washed over Bronwen's face like a wave on the seashore, but she didn't want to yield.

Cy: Roedd ei hewyllys yn gryf fel armer, yn chwilio am ffordd i drosglwyddo'r cymhlethdod â hiwmor.
En: Her will was strong as armor, searching for a way to convey the complexity with humor.

Cy: "Wel, mistletoe prin iawn," dywedodd gyda thwts bach o hyawgrwydd.
En: "Well, a very rare mistletoe," she said with a little twist of playfulness.

Cy: Cychwynnodd bobl yn chwerthin a'r niwl tew yn gludo'r twrw dros y coetir.
En: People started laughing, and the thick mist carried the noise over the woodland.

Cy: Ond daeth Gwilym ymlaen.
En: But Gwilym continued.

Cy: "Cynigiaf i brynu'r cyfan," proclaenodd, yn taflu ffi brin i mewn i'r ceiniogau.
En: "I offer to buy the lot," he proclaimed, tossing a rare fee into the coins.

Cy: Roedd hyn yn ei syfrdanu ac yn troi at ei gwallon cig.
En: This startled her and turned her to her meat chattel.

Cy: Roedd Emrys yn sefyll yn agos, ei lygaid yn canu gyda chwerthin a hoffter.
En: Emrys stood close by, his eyes ringing with laughter and fondness.

Cy: "Rwy'n edmygu eich ysbryd, Bronwen," meddai yn ysuog, heb osgoi cyfle i ddangos ei deimladau.
En: "I admire your spirit, Bronwen," he said eagerly, not missing the chance to express his feelings.

Cy: "Ac rwy'n siŵr fod pawb yma yn mwynhau gweld hyawgrwydd ddod â golau ofnadwy i unrhyw drallod.
En: "And I'm sure everyone here enjoys seeing playfulness bring dreadful light to any distress."

Cy: "Er gwaethaf y cywilydd, roedd Bronwen wedi canfod lle yn ei chalon i'r cyswllt.
En: Despite the shame, Bronwen had found a place in her heart for the connection.

Cy: Doedd angen perffeithrwydd.
En: Perfection wasn't necessary.

Cy: O'r tu hwnt i'r mysed, roedd yna ddymuniad yn ffurfio tan gromegion rhudd Emrys.
En: Beyond the mist, there was a desire forming beneath Emrys's rosy curves.

Cy: Roedd cymhlethdod wedi dod â chysylltiad lle na ragwelwyd hwnnw.
En: Complexity had brought a bond where none was anticipated.

Cy: Yn nhawelwch gyda'i gilydd, roedd y niwl, fel y cawod o haf, wedi cael y ffordd i fwy na master y mâs anghywir.
En: In the quiet togetherness, the mist, like a summer shower, had found a way to master more than just incorrect wares.

Cy: Roedd hi'n wiw nad oedd eu bywydau yn rhaid bod yn ddigynsail i rannu donioldeb a gwir ddeallwriaeth.
En: It was fitting that their lives didn't have to be extraordinary to share humor and true understanding.

Cy: A gyda hynny, roedd Bronwen a Emrys yn crwydro draw i lyfr y nos, gyda'r wlad ehangach o flaen nhw, a blodeuog o obaith.
En: And with that, Bronwen and Emrys wandered into the book of the night, with the broader land before them, blossoming with hope.
