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.
