Y bwriad sydd yn cyfrif."En: When he left the stage, the applause was warm, and Llew approached Gethin, saying, "You came and gathered a lot, Gethin. It's the intention that counts."Cy: Wrth i'r haul penblwyddi'n troi arbennig yr eisteddfod a chuddliwio gyda gwawi'r torfeydd, gwerthfawrogi'r rhan ef a chwaraeodd yr egni'n cynyddu.En: As the sun celebrated the unique eisteddfod and merged with the crowd's glow, appreciating the part he played, Gethin's energy increased.Cy: Am y tro cyntaf, sylweddolodd Gethin mai'r antur a'r dewrder i groesi ffiniau diwylliannol oedd y peth mwyaf.En: For the first time, Gethin realized that the adventure and the courage to cross cultural boundaries were the most important aspects.Cy: Fe’i dysgodd ei wobr nid yn y ddarnau parhaol, ond yn y mwynhader cysylltiedig a wnaeth ei rwydwaith yng ngh
