Cy: Roedd y tymor hydref yn lliwgar yn High-Tech City.
En: The autumn season was colorful in High-Tech City.

Cy: Roedd adeiladau uchel Tech Towers yn disgleirio yn erbyn y lliwiau euraidd a chopr o'r dail cwympo.
En: The tall buildings of Tech Towers gleamed against the golden and copper hues of the falling leaves.

Cy: Roedd y nofel dref fawr yn lle bywiog, ond roedd ganddi ei chyfrinachau cuddiedig hefyd lle gallai dychymyg rhywun esgyn.
En: The big city novel was a lively place, but it also had its hidden secrets where one's imagination could soar.

Cy: Yn Tech Towers, roedd tri ffrind yn gweithio'n docs mewn labordy glec a chyfoes.
En: In Tech Towers, three friends worked as docs in a sleek and modern lab.

Cy: Roedd Dylan, Carys, ac Eleri mewn cyffro.
En: Dylan, Carys, and Eleri were excited.

Cy: Roedd yr ysgol yn cynnal ei ffair wyddonol flynyddol.
En: The school was holding its annual science fair.

Cy: Roedd Dylan, yn arbennig, yn awyddus i greu rhywbeth anarferol a chael ei adnabod.
En: Dylan, in particular, was eager to create something unusual and get recognized.

Cy: Roedd yn drech gyda thechnoleg a dyfeisgarwch, a’i freuddwyd oedd ennill y nod cyntaf.
En: He was skilled with technology and innovation, and his dream was to win the first prize.

Cy: Roedd Carys, ei gymrawd dosbarth, wastad yn gadarn.
En: Carys, his classmate, was always steady.

Cy: Roedd ei syniadau'n ymarferol ac yn realistig.
En: Her ideas were practical and realistic.

Cy: Roedd Eleri, ar y llaw arall, yn llawn brwdfrydedd creadigol.
En: Eleri, on the other hand, was full of creative enthusiasm.

Cy: Roedd ganddi'r gallu i feddwl yn anghonfensiynol ac ychwanegu sglein at unrhyw gynllun.
En: She had the ability to think unconventionally and add a sparkle to any plan.

Cy: Dros flwyddyn roedd y tri wedi cynllwynio prosiect cymhleth ar gyfer y ffair.
En: Over a year, the three had devised a complex project for the fair.

Cy: Roedd y ddyfais i fod i ddangos cam newydd mewn meddwl dylunio technolegol.
En: The device was meant to demonstrate a new step in technological design thinking.

Cy: Ond, gyda dim ond diwrnod tan y ffair, digwyddodd trychineb.
En: But, with only a day until the fair, disaster struck.

Cy: Aeth popeth am ben ei waered. Roedd y prosiect yn gweithio'n anghywir ac roedd amser yn brin.
En: Everything went haywire, and time was running out.

Cy: Gyda'r gwynt yn chwifio dail i lawr y strydoedd cul, roedd Dylan yn teimlo'r pwysau.
En: With the wind sweeping leaves down the narrow streets, Dylan felt the pressure.

Cy: "Rhaid inni wneud rhywbeth, ar hyn o bryd," meddai Dylan, gweld panig yn disgleirio yn ei lygaid.
En: "We have to do something, right now," said Dylan, a flash of panic in his eyes.

Cy: Roedd Carys yn awgrymu y dylent raddnodi i lawr y cynllun.
En: Carys suggested they scale down the plan.

Cy: "Yn syml ac yn effeithiol," meddai hi'n bwyllog.
En: "Simple and effective," she said calmly.

Cy: Roedd Eleri'n cytuno.
En: Eleri agreed.

Cy: "Gallwn ni ddangos safbwynt creadigol gyda siocied syml," awgrymodd.
En: "We can showcase a creative perspective with a simple circuit," she suggested.

Cy: Felly, aeth y tri ati i weithio gyda'r nos.
En: So, the three set to work through the night.

Cy: Roedd teimlad o undod rhwng y tri wrth iddynt droi stêm iddi a thynhau gyŵn eu drychfeddyliau.
En: There was a sense of unity among them as they put their heads together and refined their ideas.

Cy: Roedd miri'n codi wrth iddynt weld eu syniadau'n cyflwyno ar ffurf newydd.
En: Excitement rose as they saw their ideas take on a new form.

Cy: Yn y ffair, roedd y neuadd yn llawn myfyrwyr brwdfrydig a roddodd rally o gymeradwyaeth i gychwyn newydd y tri.
En: At the fair, the hall was full of enthusiastic students who gave a round of applause to the trio's new start.

Cy: Er na lwyddodd Dylan i gipio'r wobr gyntaf, achubodd y deimlad o'u cyflawniad rhywbeth arbennig iddo.
En: Although Dylan didn't manage to grab the first prize, the feeling of their achievement was something special to him.

Cy: Cafodd eu prosiect ei ganmol am y fflach o arloesedd, ac felly cafwyd gwobr arbennig iddynt am greadigrwydd ac arloesi.
En: Their project was praised for its flash of innovation, earning them a special award for creativity and innovation.

Cy: Dylan yn y diwedd deallodd yn fwy pwysig yw'r sgiliau a meithriniadau'r gwaith gyda'i gyfeillion nag unrhyw gydnabod mynnu.
En: In the end, Dylan realized that the skills and nurturing of the work with his friends were more important than any demanded recognition.

Cy: Wedi i’r ffair ddod i ben ac i’r haul dro at goed y ddinas ddisgleirio fel cragen aur, deallodd Dylan wrth edrych tuag at Tech Towers, prydferthwch y daith fio gangefn y gobaith.
En: After the fair ended and the sun turned the city trees to a glowing shell, Dylan, looking toward Tech Towers, understood the beauty of the journey behind the hope.

Cy: Roedd y fraint iddo yn dod trwy gydweithio ac addasu, yn gystal â ffurf symlach.
En: The honor to him came through collaboration and adaptation, as well as a more straightforward form.

Cy: Roedd y profiadau a'r dysgu gyda Carys ac Eleri'n fwy gwerthfawr na'r ffigyr gwybodaeth.
En: The experiences and learning with Carys and Eleri were more valuable than the figure of knowledge.

Cy: Roedd eisoes wedi ennill ei wobr fwyaf.
En: He had already won his greatest prize.
