Story Transcript:

Cy: Mae awyrgylch Mawreddog Canolfan Mileniwm Caerdydd yn llawn cyffro a dawn.
En: The atmosphere of the magnificent Canolfan Mileniwm Caerdydd is filled with excitement and talent.

Cy: Ar fore o Fawrth 1af, y diwrnod arbennig o Ddydd Gŵyl Dewi, mae grŵp o fyfyrwyr yn dod i mewn ar daith maes i ddysgu am berfformiadau.
En: On the morning of March 1st, the special day of Dydd Gŵyl Dewi, a group of students enters on a field trip to learn about performances.

Cy: Gethin, gyda'i natur dawel, yn cerdded wrth ymyl Ceridwen a Dylan wrth iddynt fynd heibio'r golygfeydd ysblennydd o'r adeilad.
En: Gethin, with his quiet nature, walks next to Ceridwen and Dylan as they pass by the spectacular sights of the building.

Cy: Ceridwen, gyda'i chamera bywiog, yn cipio pob eiliad i'r papur newydd ysgol, tra bod Dylan yn denu torf gyda'i sioeau a hudolus.
En: Ceridwen, with her lively camera, captures every moment for the school newspaper, while Dylan attracts a crowd with his charming shows.

Cy: Ond yn ôl yn cefn meddwl Gethin, mae dymuniad cryfach yn galw – dymuniad i sefyll ar y llwyfan hwn, ryw ffordd, mae am ei hun.
En: But in the back of Gethin's mind, a stronger desire calls – a desire to stand on this stage, somehow, for himself.

Cy: Wrth iddynt fynd trwy'r slotiau gweithdy, mae pob cyfle i Dylan ryfeddu’r gynulleidfa gyda’i bersonoliaeth.
En: As they go through the workshop slots, every opportunity arises for Dylan to amaze the audience with his personality.

Cy: Mae Gethin yn dal i deimlo’n llethol, ond mae un peth yn glir, ei eisiau i gymryd rhan.
En: Gethin still feels overwhelmed, but one thing is clear: his want to participate.

Cy: Mae'n pryderu wrth weld Ceridwen yn gweithio'n galed ar ei hadroddiadau.
En: He worries as he sees Ceridwen working hard on her reports.

Cy: Yn ystod egwyl, mae Gethin yn dod o hyd i'r rhestr agored o berfformiadau meicroffon.
En: During a break, Gethin finds the open list of microphone performances.

Cy: Mae temp oherwydd ei freuddwyd am berfformio.
En: He's tempted by his dream of performing.

Cy: Yn sydyn, mae darlun yn ymddangos yn ei feddwl – perfformio monolog syml, ond pwerus, un fyddai'n dangos ei gwir ddawn.
En: Suddenly, an image appears in his mind – performing a simple but powerful monologue, one that would display his true talent.

Cy: Ond mae'r nerfau’n dal yn niwlog a Daw Dylan i’w feddwl.
En: But the nerves remain foggy, and Dylan comes to mind.

Cy: Mae'r amser wedi dod.
En: The time has come.

Cy: Mae yno y tu ôl i'r llenni, gwrandoâ’r sŵn taranog o leisiau'r gynulleidfa yn eu seddau.
En: He's there behind the curtains, listening to the thunderous sound of the audience's voices in their seats.

Cy: Ceridwen yn dal ei chyfarpar yn barod i gofnodi popeth.
En: Ceridwen is holding her equipment ready to record everything.

Cy: Dylan yn edrych yn hyderus wrth ochr llwyfan.
En: Dylan looks confident at the side of the stage.

Cy: Ond mae rhywbeth yn newid.
En: But something changes.

Cy: Mae un dychymyg o llwyddiant yn rhedeg trwy feddwl Gethin.
En: A vision of success runs through Gethin's mind.

Cy: Mae'n gwybod mai ei foment ef yw hon, a does dim yn mynd i’w stopio.
En: He knows this is his moment, and nothing is going to stop him.

Cy: Mae Gethin yn camu allan, goleuadau llachar yn ei wyneb.
En: Gethin steps out, bright lights in his face.

Cy: Mae'r llais yn dawel, ei geiriau ychydig yn y dechrau, ond wrth i'r geiriau ddod, mae ei hyder yn tyfu.
En: His voice is quiet, his words few at first, but as the words come, his confidence grows.

Cy: Mae’r lleisyddion yn wresog â theimlad, gan symud y gynulleidfa yn annisgwyl.
En: The vocals are warm with feeling, unexpectedly moving the audience.

Cy: Mae dawn y geiriau yn llifogydd gwaelodol, ac mae'r soprynion nerfusrwydd yn diflannu wrth wylio'r dylanwad ar wylwyr.
En: The talent of the words is a torrent, and the traces of nervousness disappear upon witnessing the audience's reaction.

Cy: Wrth i'r monolog ddod i ben, mae'r dorf ynysig yn dod i fywyd gyda chlawr a chymeradwyaeth.
En: As the monologue ends, the silent crowd comes to life with applause and praise.

Cy: Mae un o'r gwenau mwyaf ar wyneb y gynulleidfa yn perthyn i Dylan ei hun.
En: One of the biggest smiles on the audience's face belongs to Dylan himself.

Cy: Wedi'r perfformiad, mae Gethin yn llawn balchder newydd, gan sylweddoli nad yw'n rhaid iddo aros mewn cysgodion eraill.
En: After the performance, Gethin is filled with new pride, realizing he does not have to stay in others' shadows.

Cy: Mae ei daid arni wedi talu.
En: His boldness has paid off.

Cy: Yn awr, mae Ceridwen hefyd yn ei gyfweld, yn ysgrifennu straeon nid dim ond am sioe, ond am un arall sy'n creu gweld – Gethin.
En: Now, Ceridwen also interviews him, writing stories not just about the show, but about another who made an impression – Gethin.

Cy: Mae Gethin yn gadael y ganolfan, fel y mynyddoedd Cymru ei hun wedi symud, yn gadarn yn ei gredo – i orchfygu nerfau a sioe ei ffydd, mae heddiw wedi ennill mewn gwirionedd.
En: Gethin leaves the center, as if Wales' own mountains have shifted, firm in his belief – to conquer nerves and show his faith, today has truly been won.

Cy: Yn cynnig am y camau nesaf, roedd yn wybod yn glir bod y cam cyntaf wedi bod y mwyaf pwysig.
En: Offering for the next steps, it was clear that the first step had been the most important.
