Story Transcript:

Cy: Yng nghanol yr haf, roedd Aeron yn edrych ymlaen at daith ysgol i Eryri.
En: In the middle of summer, Aeron was looking forward to a school trip to Eryri.

Cy: Mae'n deimlad arbennig yn yr awyr, gyda chyffro'r haf a gobaith gwyliau.
En: There's a special feeling in the air, with the excitement of summer and the hope of holidays.

Cy: Ar fore braf, grŵp o blant, gyda chamerâu a bagiau llawn byrbrydau, casglwyd wrth draed y bryniau gwyrddlas.
En: On a fine morning, a group of children, with cameras and bags full of snacks, gathered at the feet of the green hills.

Cy: Bronwen, yr athrawes, gyda chalon mor fawr â'r mynyddoedd, dwed i'r plant am natur y lle.
En: Bronwen, the teacher, with a heart as big as the mountains, told the children about the nature of the place.

Cy: Yng ngolwg pob desg oedd Dylan, yn meddwl am wythnos o chwaraeon.
En: In every eye was Dylan, thinking about a week of sports.

Cy: Roedd Aeron eisoes wedi clywed straeon am yr aderyn barcud coch.
En: Aeron had already heard stories about the red kite bird.

Cy: Llythyren y dwyn ar ei freichled oedd ei hoff ddawns, wrth iddo neidio i ddawnsio rhwng cymylau'r Eryri.
En: The letter on his bracelet was his favorite dance, as he leaped to dance between the clouds of Eryri.

Cy: Roedd yn awyddus i anfarwoli'r aderyn ar ffilm, ond roedd problem o'i flaen.
En: He was eager to immortalize the bird on film, but there was a problem ahead of him.

Cy: Roedd y rheolau'n gliriach na diwrnod clir: peidiwch â gadael y grŵp.
En: The rules were clearer than a clear day: don't leave the group.

Cy: Ond roedd penderfyniad i wibio oddi ar y llwybr yn rhoi cyfaddawd i Aeron.
En: But the decision to dart off the path presented Aeron with a dilemma.

Cy: Yn ddewr, myndais ef i siarad â Bronwen.
En: Bravely, he went to speak to Bronwen.

Cy: "Galen ni fynd i chwilio am barcud coch?
En: "Can we go look for a red kite?"

Cy: " gofynnodd.
En: he asked.

Cy: Bu Bronwen yn pendroni am ennyd, ond ei gilydd oedd ei dysteb.
En: Bronwen pondered for a moment, but her testimony was together.

Cy: "Os byddwch yn aros gyda Dylan, ac yn adrodd yn ôl erbyn cinio, gallwch fynd.
En: "If you stay with Dylan, and report back by lunch, you can go."

Cy: "Dilynodd Dylan, wrth gwrs, a'u gwibio nhw i'r coedwig.
En: Dylan followed, of course, and they darted into the woodland.

Cy: Roedd yr awyr yn frith o si, a'r haul yn cyffwrdd popeth â'i las prynhawnol.
En: The air was abuzz with whispers, and the sun touched everything with its afternoon blue.

Cy: Wrth iddyn nhw groesi carneddau, roedd calon Aeron yn chwilbedio gydag adrenalin.
En: As they crossed hillocks, Aeron's heart buzzed with adrenaline.

Cy: Yna, ymddanghosodd y barcud coch!
En: Then, the red kite appeared!

Cy: Roedd yn hedfan uchel, yn cysgodi’r llawr.
En: It was flying high, casting a shadow on the ground.

Cy: Cymerodd Aeron ei gamera.
En: Aeron took his camera.

Cy: Clic!
En: Click!

Cy: Ers tan y diwrnod hwnnw, ni welodd erioed aderyn gyda chefn mor deg.
En: Until that day, he had never seen a bird with such a fair back.

Cy: Wedi dychwelyd, heb pryder, roedd pawb yn estyn amlwg gyda chanmoliaeth.
En: Upon returning, without any worry, everyone extended obvious praise.

Cy: Roedd Bronwen yn orymdaith, yn talu brid i Aeron am ei ddeallusrwydd a'i arweiniad.
En: Bronwen was triumphant, paying tribute to Aeron for his intelligence and leadership.

Cy: Gan sioe'r gamp fe wnaeth ei gymheiriaid edmygu Aeron.
En: Through the showcase of the feat, his peers admired Aeron.

Cy: Yng nghyffiniau’r prynhawn, gwellodd Aeron ei hun o blant posibl.
En: By afternoon, Aeron saw himself better than possible.

Cy: Llygaid yn canu gyda balchder, deallodd bellach fod rhoi cynnig ar ymdrechion newydd yn werth yr holl ymdrech.
En: Eyes singing with pride, he now understood that trying new endeavors was worth all the effort.

Cy: Drwy gydweithio â'i athrawes a Dylan, roedd Aeron wedi dysgu bod ffrindiau a chyfathrebu'n talu'n uchel.
En: Through cooperating with his teacher and Dylan, Aeron had learned that friends and communication pay off greatly.

Cy: Wrth ddwad â'r camera, drapodd y diwrnod â llun a wna arhosiad o genad.
En: Bringing the camera, he captured the day with a photo that holds a legacy.

Cy: Roedd yr haf yn Eryri, gyda'r bydiau holl liwiau a nodweddion, nawr yn nodwedd mewn myfyriwr ifanc wyrchwydd megis adenydd yn gwyro drwy'r awyr.
En: The summer in Eryri, with all its colors and features, was now a hallmark in a young student's life, like wings soaring through the sky.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Ger gwaelod y bryn mân, cudd y tu ôl i lwyni o dderw a choed onnen, saif Teml Caws Ddirgel.
En: Near the base of the small hill, hidden behind a grove of oak and ash trees, stands the Temple of Caws Ddirgel.

Cy: Mae'r haul haf yn disgleirio drwy'r dail, gan daflu cysgodion ar y mynwentydd cerrig hynafol.
En: The summer sun shines through the leaves, casting shadows on the ancient stone tombs.

Cy: Dewch i mewn, ac mae'r awyr yn llawn arogl cryf caws a'r sŵn ysgafn o adar yn canu.
En: Come inside, and the air is filled with the strong smell of cheese and the soft sound of birds singing.

Cy: Yn y canol, mae'r cwrt mawr lle mae ffrindiau'n ymgynnull bob haf i gymryd rhan mewn cystadleuaeth fwyta caws mawreddog.
En: In the center, there is a large courtyard where friends gather every summer to participate in a grand cheese-eating competition.

Cy: Mae'n frwdfrydig ac yn nerfus ar yr un pryd.

En: Since childhood, he has loved cheese more than anything else.

Cy: Ond mae yno ofn chwarae'r golau trwy ei galon - afradfetod geifr.
En: But there is fear playing through his heart - the recklessness of goats.

En: "All of the big goats will be drawn here today!"

Cy: " meddai Rhys.
En: said Rhys.

Cy: "Pam na fydde’n nhw’n medru peidio bod yn rhan o’r hwyl?
En: "Why wouldn't they want to be part of the fun?"

Cy: " ychwanegodd Eira.
En: added Eira.

Cy: Gareth yn gwenu, ond mae ofn yn cuddio tu ôl ei lygaid.

Cy: Tablau'n llawn gyda nifer o wahanol fathau o gaws.
En: Tables are filled with a variety of different cheeses.

Cy: Ond wrth i'r cystadleuwyr baratoi, daw sŵn cerddoriaeth ysgafn gyda’r gwynt.
En: But as the competitors prepare, a light sound of music comes with the wind.

Cy: A diflannod oedd y geifr.
En: And suddenly, the goats have vanished.

Cy: Mae drawr Gareth wedi gweld hyn yn wir - y geifr am yn ail yn rhedeg tuag at y caws!
En: Gareth has realized this is true - the goats are running one after another towards the cheese!

Cy: "Beth rydym ni'n gwneud nawr?
En: "What do we do now?"

Cy: " gwaeddodd Eira.
En: shouted Eira.

Cy: Mae'r geifr yn ymosod, a'r caws yn aneglur.
En: The goats are attacking, and the cheese is unclear.

Cy: Mae Gareth yn wynebu ei anghenfilovaidd.
En: Gareth faces his monstrous foes.

Cy: "Byddwn yn eu harwain i ffwrdd," meddai.
En: "I’ll lead them away," he said.

Cy: Wrth law, mae llinyn caws, a chynllun syml sydd ganddo.
En: At hand, there's a line of cheese, and he has a simple plan.

Cy: Mae'n gwneud leso o'r llinyn caws, gan ysgwyd yn feddal hyd at y geifr.
En: He makes a lasso out of the cheese string, gently waving it toward the goats.

Cy: "Rhys, Eira, gofalwch y caws!
En: "Rhys, Eira, take care of the cheese!"

Cy: " mae'n gweiddi.
En: he shouts.

Cy: Wna Rhys ac Eira y tŷr ar hyd y bwrdd, ac ail ddechrau sylw'r geifr yn ychydig.
En: Rhys and Eira rush along the table, distracting the goats a little.

Cy: Gyda'i linyn caws, mae Gareth yn llwyddo i ddenu'r geifr i ffwrdd.
En: With his cheese string, Gareth manages to lure the goats away.

Cy: Y tro hwn, nid yw'n rhedeg i ffwrdd.
En: This time, he's not running away.

Cy: Mae'n deall na ellir byth perffaith ond gall wneud ei orau o hyd.
En: He understands that perfection isn't possible, but he can still do his best.

Cy: Yn gorff y geifr, tra bod yr arholwyr cychwyn ymgais.
En: Amidst the goats, while the examiners begin the contest.

Cy: Pan ddaw'r rownd derfynol, mae Gareth yn sefyll gyda Eira a Rhys wrth ei ochr.
En: When the final round comes, Gareth stands with Eira and Rhys by his side.

Cy: Mae gyda nhw y caws gorau, a llwyddo i goncro ei ofnau.
En: They have the best cheese, and he has managed to conquer his fears.

Cy: Mae'n derbyn coron o gaws o flaen y dorf, ac nid yn unig wedi ennill, ond hefyd wedi dysgu werth cydweithrediad a dewrder.
En: He receives a crown of cheese in front of the crowd, having not only won but also learned the value of collaboration and bravery.

Cy: Ac wrth i'r haul gwenu ar Teml Caws Ddirgel, mae Gareth yn gwybod ei fod wedi ennill mwy nag un coron.
En: And as the sun smiles on the Temple of Caws Ddirgel, Gareth knows he has won more than one crown.

Story Transcript:

Cy: Yn nghanol haf, roedd Emrys, Delyth, a Gareth ar eu taith trwy'r mynyddoedd yng nghalon Eryri.
En: In the middle of summer, Emrys, Delyth, and Gareth were on their journey through the mountains in the heart of Eryri.

Cy: Roedd yn ddiwrnod clir, ond roedd y teimlad yn drwm wrth iddynt gofio eu tad a gollwyd yn ddiweddar.
En: It was a clear day, but the feeling was heavy as they remembered their recently lost father.

Cy: Roedd eu hanes gyda'u tad yn gorwedd ar y llwybr hwn, yng nghysgod y teml guddiedig.
En: Their history with their father lay on this path, in the shadow of the hidden temple.

Cy: "Byddwn yn cadw at y llwybr hirach," meddai Emrys, yn arwain ymlaen â’i synnwyr arferol o benderfyniad.
En: "We'll stick to the longer path," said Emrys, leading onward with his usual sense of determination.

Cy: Roedd Delyth yn siarad yn dawel, "Ond roedd ein tad wastad yn sôn am harddwch y llwybr byr, llonydd hefyd."
En: Delyth spoke quietly, "But our father always mentioned the beauty of the shorter, peaceful path."

Cy: Roedd Gareth yn edrych rhwng ei ddau frawd a chwaer, teimlad o anobaith yn llenwi ei galon.
En: Gareth looked between his brother and sister, a feeling of despair filling his heart.

Cy: Roedd eisiau cysylltu â'u tad am y tro olaf, ac felly roedd y llwybr byr yn medru rhoi’r math ysbrydoldeb hwnnw iddynt.
En: He wanted to connect with their father one last time, and so the shorter path might offer them that spirituality.

Cy: "Rydych chi'n gwybod beth, gadewch inni fynd â llwybr ein tad," meddai Gareth o'r diwedd, gan ymuno â dymuniad Delyth.
En: "You know what, let's take our father's path," Gareth finally said, joining in Delyth's wish.

Cy: Roedd Emrys yn edrych arno fe am eiliad, yna chwarddodd yn feddal, "Iawn, rhaid inni fynd â golau ar ein traed."
En: Emrys looked at him for a moment, then laughed softly, "Alright, we must tread lightly."

Cy: Gyda llawenydd cymysgedig â gwg fach, roedd y tri yn cychwyn ar eu llwybr, bac ardderchog y bryniau yn cilio i'w holiodd graddol.
En: With joy mixed with a small scowl, the three set off on their path, the magnificent backdrop of the hills gradually receding behind them.

Cy: Daethant at y teml guddiedig erbyn hwyr, pan oedd yr haul yn dechrau suddo, ei belydrau olaf yn dawnsio ar y cerrig hanner canrif oed.
En: They arrived at the hidden temple by evening, as the sun began to set, its last rays dancing on the fifty-year-old stones.

Cy: Roedd y lle'n dawel, bron yn ysbrydol, â golygfa hollol anhygoel dros y dyffrynnoedd islaw.
En: The place was quiet, almost spiritual, with a completely incredible view over the valleys below.

Cy: Ac yna, roedd anadl oer y tymestl yn dechrau dod i'r awyr, ond mynodd Delyth, "Rhaid inni gyflawni hyn nawr, ni allwn ddychwelyd yma eto."
En: And then, a cold breath of the storm began to come into the air, but Delyth insisted, "We must complete this now; we can't return here again."

Cy: Gyda pharch a dwyster, taflwyd lludw eu tad gan ddechreuwyr y gwynt.
En: With respect and intensity, their father’s ashes were cast to the beginner's wind.

Cy: Roedd y glaw yn dechrau syrthio fel pe theimladau'r haul, gan droi'r eiliad yn un o gau; gyda gwerthfawrogiad dweud "anffodus ond perffaith."
En: The rain began to fall as if it shared the sun's emotions, turning the moment into one of closure; with an appreciative remark, "unfortunate but perfect."

Cy: Pan gawsant loches mewn cysgod dan y briddellwch y teml, roedd y glaw yn fud a chlywed storïau am eu tad yn rhodd.
En: When they took shelter in the canopy under the temple, the rain was silent and the shared stories about their father were a gift.

Cy: "Mae'n rhaid i mi ddysgu bod yn fwy damweiniol, fel yntau," mynegodd Emrys, gyda gwen ddwfn ar ei wyneb.
En: "I must learn to be more spontaneous, like him," expressed Emrys, with a deep grin on his face.

Cy: Delyth yn sgipio am heddwch, gan fod y dyletswydd wedi'i wneud.
En: Delyth skipped for peace, knowing the duty was done.

Cy: Roedd Gareth yn teimlo bod ei gysylltiad â'i dad wedi ei adnewyddu, oherwydd cerdded y llwybr hwn gyda'i frawd a chwaer.
En: Gareth felt his connection with his dad had been renewed by walking this path with his siblings.

Cy: Roedd y teml, sefyll yn ddigysgod, yn dyst tawel i'r aduniad hwn, rhy fatha cerrig ei thyrrau, yn brawychol ac yn hardd yn yr un pryd.
En: The temple, standing shadowless, was a silent witness to this reunion, much like its tower stones, both breathtaking and beautiful at the same time.

Cy: Roedd y môr o dosturi a chariad yn rhannu'r tri, yr awel yn gwaeddi o amgylchyn ac oddi wrth yr eu hysgolion.
En: The sea of compassion and love shared among the three, the wind crying around and from their footsteps.

Cy: Teyrngarwch gan y teulu, ac roedd eu tad, yn rhywle yn syllu i lawr, yn teimlo'n cyfan.
En: Loyalty from the family, and their father, somewhere looking down, felt whole.
