on a special field trip.Cy: Roedd gwynt y gwanwyn yn chwythu, a golau haul yn creu patrymau arian ar wyneb y môr.En: The spring wind was blowing, and the sunlight was creating silver patterns on the surface of the sea.Cy: Yn eu plith, cerddodd Gareth, Eira, a Rhys ar hyd yr arfordir, yn ymweld ag un o'r traethau mwyaf prydferth yn y wlad.En: Among them, Gareth, Eira, and Rhys walked along the coastline, visiting one of the most beautiful beaches in the country.Cy: Roedd Gareth, bachgen llawn chwilfrydedd ond yn introvert, yn cerdded ychydig yn ôl o’i ffrindiau.En: Gareth, a curious but introverted boy, walked a little behind his friends.Cy: Roedd Eira a Rhys eisoes yn sgrechian ac yn bownsio ar hyd y tywod, barod i gychwyn gemau gyda’u pêl fôr newydd.En: Eira and Rhys were already shouting and bouncing across the sand, ready to start games with their new beach ball.Cy: Ond roedd Gareth yn meddwl am rywbeth arall.En: But Gareth was thinking about something else.Cy: Roedd ganddo

to find a unique collection of blue shells, hidden within the beach's secret spots.Cy: Er bod y tywydd wedi dechrau’n heulog, roedd pob un ohonynt yn gwybod pa mor newidlyd allai’r arfordir fod yn

special hunt, knowing that unexpected rain could ruin his efforts?Cy: Tra roedd Eira a Rhys yn chwerthin ac yn taflu’r bêl, plygodd Gareth wrth ei liniau, chwilio drwy’r tywod euraidd am gregyn.En: While Eira and Rhys were laughing and throwing the ball, Gareth knelt down, searching through the golden sand for shells.Cy: Mewn munudau, daeth ar draws cregyn gydag amrywiaeth o siapiau a lliwiau, yn cynnig lliwiau mewnosodiedig o las tywyll a pinc ysgafn.En: Within minutes, he came across shells with a variety of shapes and colors, offering embedded hues of dark blue and light pink.Cy: Wrth i oriau fynd heibio, daeth Gareth ar draws cregen arbennig.En: As the hours passed, Gareth found a special shell.Cy: Roedd hi’n fawr yn ei law, yn sgleinio yn yr haul fel yr un mwyaf prydferth a welai erioed.En: It was large in his hand, gleaming in the sun as the most beautiful one he had ever seen.Cy: Yn sydyn, roedd glaw yn dechrau disgyn—gollwng cymylau du dros yr arfordir.En: Suddenly, the

have to go!"Cy: " gwaeddodd Rhys wrth Eira, yn rhedeg i gyfeiriad y lloches.En: shouted Rhys to Eira, running towards the shelter.Cy: Ond aed Gareth yn ôl.En: But Gareth stayed back.Cy: Cymerodd

gasgliad, roeddent wedi rhyfeddu.En: His friends returned to him, seeing his collection, they were amazed.Cy: "Mae hyn yn rhyfeddol, Gareth," dywedodd Eira, ei llygaid yn fawr ac yn llawn

traeth, gwelodd Gareth nad oedd yn cael ei anwybyddu wedi’r cyfan.En: As they left the beach, Gareth realized he was not overlooked after all.Cy: Hoeliai’i lygaid ar y gorwel, cartref yn ei ddarn o
