Roedd y tywydd yn ddiflas ar fore cynoesaf gwrthbwysig yn Abertawe.En: The weather was dreary on the morning of a compensatory eve in Abertawe.Cy: Roedd glaw mân yn tipian yn gyson ar ffenestri mawr Amgueddfa Genedlaethol y Glannau, gan roi awyrgylch disgybledig a myfyriol i’r lle.En: A gentle rain pattered consistently on the large windows of the Amgueddfa Genedlaethol y Glannau, giving the place a disciplined and contemplative atmosphere.Cy: Cafodd Dafydd, Siân, a Gareth eu denu i mewn gan rywbeth aneglur, rhywbeth cyfarwydd ond newydd.En: Dafydd, Siân, and Gareth were drawn in by something unclear, something familiar yet new.Cy: Roedd Dafydd yn bensaer ifanc, ac erbyn hyn teimlai wedi mynd i ben draw ei braidd.En: Dafydd was a young architect, and by now, he felt he had reached the end of his tether.Cy: Roedd ei brosiectau diweddar yn ddiflas ganddo, dim byd yn tanio ei gyffro.En: His recent projects were dull to him, nothing sparked his excitement.Cy: Heddiw, roedd yn digwydd bod ger y fan hon gyda'i ffrindiau, a synhwyrai wirioneddol yr angen am ysbrydoliaeth.En: Today, he happened to be near this place with his friends, and he truly sensed the need for inspiration.Cy: "Beth am fynd i mewn?" awgrymodd Siân, pan aeth y glaw yn drymach.En: "How about we go in?" suggested Siân, as the rain grew heavier.Cy: Roedd Gareth yn cytuno, gyda thawelwch hyderus sefyllfa.En: Gareth agreed with a quiet confidence of the situation.Cy: Nid oedd unrhyw wyliau ofodol i ddathlu rŵan, dim pause o ddirywio'r olydd rhestr o waith llwyd Dafydd.En: There were no spatial holidays to celebrate now, no pause from the deteriorating slate of Dafydd's gray work.Cy: Ond efallai allai rhywbeth y tu mewn i’w ddenu i ddyfalu arall.En: But perhaps something inside could entice him to reckon otherwise.Cy: Aeth y tri i mewn.En: The three went inside.Cy: Dyna oedd rhodfa o hen bethau a thechnoleg newydd.En: There was an avenue of old things and new technology.Cy: Roedd y golau gwan yn adlamu ar oleuni’r ffenestri enfawr.En: The dim light bounced off the enormous windows' light.Cy: Wrth iddynt gerdded trwy bob ystafell, synhwyrai Dafydd ei galon yn dechrau chwibanu â diddordeb.En: As they walked through each room, Dafydd felt his heart beginning to hum with interest.Cy: Yn sydyn, safodd o flaen arddangosfa anferth.En: Suddenly, he stopped in front of a massive exhibition.Cy: Hefyd, roedd wedi'i threfu gyda haneseuon o gynlluniau pensaernïol o'r gorffennol a sut roeddent wedi troi i bontio'r dyfodol.En: It was also arranged with stories of architectural plans from the past and how they had turned to bridge the future.Cy: Roedd hi fel petai amser yn colli ei hystyr.En: It was as if time had lost its meaning.Cy: Am amrantiad, roedd yn teimlo fel plentyn mewn parc thema o syniadau.En: For a moment, he felt like a child in a theme park of ideas.Cy: Roedd yn gweld siapiau, llinellau a syniadau, pob un yn gwau'n hwylus.En: He saw shapes, lines, and ideas, all weaving effortlessly.Cy: Roedd pob troad o'i ben yn dod â barn newydd.En: Every turn of his head brought a new perception.Cy: Ac yna, daeth yr ysbrydoliad, yn sŵn tawel y glaw, ac alunion melltir i o'r dyddiau byrraf.En: And then, inspiration came, in the quiet sound of the rain, and milestones of short days ahead.Cy: Cododd ei lyfr braslunio, gwrthryn a esgeulustd gartref, ac fe ddechreuodd gopïo popeth a welodd.En: He lifted his sketchbook, an object neglected at home, and began to copy everything he saw.Cy: Dangosodd ei law du hen ffurfiau, nes bod ei tudalennau’n britho â sawl llun newydd.En: His hand showed old forms, until his pages were mottled with several new drawings.Cy: Roedd ei galon yn chwegrwn, yn mwynhau'r symudiad.En: His heart was ablaze, enjoying the movement.Cy: Pan oedd Dafydd yn barod i adael yr amgueddfa, roedd yn teimlo fel pe bai wedi cael trodd ar bwynt arall.En: When Dafydd was ready to leave the museum, he felt like he had turned at a different point.Cy: Edrychodd ar Siân a Gareth, "Dw i eisoes yn teimlo'n fywiog," dywedodd, llygad yn tywynu.En: He looked at Siân and Gareth, "I already feel invigorated," he said, his eyes shining.Cy: Gwenu, yr un eiliad rheswm i eirio sydd i Siân, “Diolch am ddod yma, Dafydd.”En: Smiling, the same moment reason for words to Siân, “Thanks for coming here, Dafydd.”Cy: Allforio’r swyngod o gyhuddo’r bore, roedd Dafydd yn barod ar gyfer ei brosiect nesaf.En: Shedding the gloom of the morning, Dafydd was ready for his next project.Cy: Cyferbynnodd yr ymroddiadau newydd a phuntio tuag at y wynebau feriora.En: He contrasted the new commitments and pointed towards the smaller faces.Cy: Roedd wedi adennill ei ffydd ac ysbrydoliaeth, roedd y ddinas yn aros am ei henw o dan amwygn i fod yn newid byd.En: He had regained his faith and inspiration, the city awaited his name in the echo to be transformative.
