I was there with a Warden\u2019s helmet on, incidentally, and he said \u201cBert, our Swansea has died. Our Swansea has died.\u201d And by God he was right. The Swansea that we knew, the pubs, the places, were gone, and gone for all time.\u2019 (Dylan Remembered &#8211; Cyfrol 2, tudalen 92)<\/p>\n<p>Nid tan fis Chwefror 1947 y teimlai Dylan yn barod i ysgrifennu am Flitz Abertawe, a&#8217;r canlyniad oedd ei ddarllediad, &#8216;Return Journey&#8217;. Ynddo, mae&#8217;r adroddwr yn teithio drwy Abertawe yn chwilio am ei flynyddoedd iau, ac wrth wneud hynny, mae&#8217;n ceisio adfer Abertawe a gollwyd yn y Blitz. Cafodd ei recordio ar gyfer Gwasanaeth Cartref y BBC ym mis Ebrill a&#8217;i ddarlledu fis yn ddiweddarach.<\/p>\n<p>Bu Dylan yn gwneud gwaith ymchwil trwyadl i sicrhau ei fod wedi enwi&#8217;r holl siopau ac adeiladau a gollwyd yn gywir, fel a nodir yn y dyfyniad hwn o&#8217;r darllediad:<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I went out of the hotel into the snow and walked down high street, past the flat white wastes where all the shops had been. Eddershaw Furnishers, Curry\u2019s Bicycles, Donegal Clothing Company, Doctor Scholl\u2019s, Burton Tailors, W.H.Smith, Boots\u2026- all the shops bombed and vanished. Past the hole in space where Hodges &amp; Clothiers had been, down Castle Street, past the remembered, invisible shops\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Cysylltodd Dylan \u00e2 meistr clasuron ei hen ysgol, Ysgol Ramadeg Abertawe, i ofyn am Restr yr Anrhydeddau er mwyn enwi&#8217;r bechgyn yn gywir arni, ac i ymateb i lythyr J. Morys Williams a&#8217;i gynnwys, gan nodi sawl enw yr oedd yn ei gofio. Yn \u2018Return Journey\u2019 mae&#8217;n ysgrifennu am neuadd yr ysgol \u2018[it] is shattered, the echoing corridors charred where he scribbled and smudged and yawned in the long green days, waiting for the bell and the scamper into the Yard\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Mae&#8217;r manylion hyn yn un agwedd ar deyrnged deimladwy a thelynegol yn &#8216;Return Journey&#8217; i Abertawe Dylan a gollwyd. Dyma ffordd Dylan o geisio deall y digwyddiad trawmatig enfawr hwn yn hanes Abertawe&#8217;r ugeinfed ganrif a\u2019i effaith ar breswylwyr Abertawe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018You remember Ben Evans\u2019s stores?
