Story Transcript:
Cy: Ar y llethrau gwyrddion eang o'r Beacons Brycheiniog, roedd Gwyn yn rhedeg yn erbyn y gwynt.
En: On the wide green slopes of the Beacons Brycheiniog, Gwyn was running against the wind.
Cy: Roedd yr haul yn ffilmio'r tir gyda'i gynhesrwydd, ac roedd yr aer yn llawn aroglau'r haf.
En: The sun was warming the land with its warmth, and the air was filled with the scents of summer.
Cy: ‘Roedd Gwyn yn meddwl am y marathon sydd ar ddod.
En: Gwyn was thinking about the upcoming marathon.
Cy: Ei nod oedd torri ei record ei hun, ond roedd hefyd rhaid iddo wynebu'r her o roi amser a gofal i'w deulu.
En: His goal was to break his own record, but he also had to face the challenge of giving time and care to his family.
Cy: Roedd Megan, ei wraig, a Dylan, ei fab ifanc, yn dod i’w meddwl yn aml.
En: Megan, his wife, and Dylan, his young son, often came to his mind.
Cy: Roedd Dylan yn aml yn edrych ymlaen at ddiwrnodau haf arbennig â’i dad.
En: Dylan often looked forward to special summer days with his dad.
Cy: Ond roedd calonnau’r teulu’n gystuddiedig, cystal â phla gyda’r amserlen hyfforddi annhegwch Gwyn.
En: But the hearts of the family were distressed, as troubled as a plague with Gwyn's unfair training schedule.
Cy: Bob tro roedd Gwyn yn dod adref, roedd Megan yn cael y siom i weld fod ei wres ei hun ar goll.
En: Every time Gwyn came home, Megan would be disappointed to find her own warmth missing.
Cy: Un dydd Sadwrn heulog, roedd Gwyn yn paratoi ar gyfer rhediad hir ers tro.
En: One sunny Saturday, Gwyn was preparing for a long overdue run.
Cy: Yna, clywodd Dylan, "Dad!
En: Then, he heard Dylan, "Dad!
Cy: Bydd fy match pêl-droed heddiw!
En: My soccer match is today!"
Cy: " Roedd y cyhoeddiad yn stopio Gwyn yn ei olion.
En: The announcement stopped Gwyn in his tracks.
Cy: Dyna ei argyfwng.
En: That was his dilemma.
Cy: A ddylai fynd i'r match, neu a ddylai ymrwymo i’w hyfforddiant hollbwysig?
En: Should he go to the match, or should he commit to his crucial training?
Cy: Roedd Gwyn mewn poen meddwl.
En: Gwyn was in mental anguish.
Cy: Trodd ei feddwl dros y dyddiau hir y treuliodd rhwng rhediadau a theulu.
En: His mind wandered over the long days he spent between runs and family.
Cy: Yna, cymerodd benderfyniad.
En: Then, he made a decision.
Cy: Gofynnodd Megan, "Gwyn, beth ydych chi am ei wneud?
En: Megan asked, "Gwyn, what do you want to do?"
Cy: " Atebodd Gwyn gyda phahewiaeth tawel, "Rhaid i mi fynychu’r match.
En: Gwyn replied with quiet determination, "I must attend the match."
Cy: "Pan gwelodd Gwyn lawenydd Dylan wrth iddo ymarfer ar y cae, dydd Sadwrn, teimlodd y manteision i’w benderfyniad.
En: When Gwyn saw Dylan's joy as he practiced on the field on that Saturday, he felt the benefits of his decision.
Cy: Roedd y teulu yn y cae yn ymddangos fel yr un tîm pwysicaf.
En: The family on the field seemed like the most important team.
Cy: Roedd gweld Dylan yn sgorio gol wrth roi ei holl galon i'r gêm yn ei atgoffa fod gydbwysedd hollbwysig.
En: Watching Dylan score a goal while putting his whole heart into the game reminded him that balance is crucial.
Cy: Ar ddiwrnod y marathon, safai Gwyn ar y llinell gychwyn.
En: On the day of the marathon, Gwyn stood at the starting line.
Cy: Wrth gadw allan, roedd
