Mae amseroedd medru bod yn beryg ar y llwybrau."En: Rhys was a bit more hesitant, looking up towards the lofty summit, "Only if we keep safe. Times can be dangerous on the trails."Cy: Yn y cyfamser, gwenu fel petai popeth yn iawn, canodd Carwyn gân.En: Meanwhile, smiling as if everything was fine, Carwyn started singing a song.Cy: "Dewch 'mlaen, Rhys, bydd popeth yn iawn. Byddwn ni'n ei wneud gyda'n gilydd!"En: "Come on, Rhys, everything will be fine. We'll do it together!"Cy: Roedd penllanw'r taith wrth iddynt gyrraedd rhan fwyaf serth y mynydd.En: The highlight of the journey came as they reached the steepest part of the mountain.Cy: Yna fe ddigwyddodd y ddamwain annisgwyl.En: Then, the unexpected accident happened.Cy: Tra’n eiddgar symud ymlaen, baglodd Eira ar garreg lwyd wedi gwasgaru yn ddisymwth.En: Eagerly moving forward, Eira tripped on a gray stone that suddenly scattered.Cy: Clywodd Rhys a Carwyn y sŵn sydyn o gnisio, ac ymledduodd eu dwylo i gynnal eu ffrind yn syth.En: Rhys and Carwyn heard the sudden sound of stumbling and reached out their hands to immediately support their friend.Cy: "Aa! Fy mhen-glin," ochneidiodd Eira, ymchwil ei chefn gyda phoen.En: "Ow! My knee," sighed Eira, searching her back in pain.Cy: Bu distawrwydd byr wedyn, oni bai am si air gywnglod.En: There was a brief silence afterward, except for a distant rumble of thunder.Cy: Roedd Rhys yn edrych yn bryderus tua'r cymylau tywyll a oedd yn dechrau casglu uwch eu pennau.En: Rhys looked anxiously towards the dark clouds beginning to gather above them.Cy: "Rhaid i ni fynd nôl i lawr cyn bod y storm yn cyrraedd."En: "We must go back down before the storm arrives."Cy: Safodd Carwyn, gan ddod ag awr yn fwy difrifol nag arfer; ond llwyddodd i gadw ei natur bositif.En: Carwyn stood, taking on a more serious demeanor than usual; but he managed to keep his positive nature.Cy: "Eira, ni allwn ni wneud hyn yn unig. Mae'n rhaid disgwyl rhwystro'r anaf."En: "Eira, we can't do this alone. We must wait to brace the injury."Cy: Gyda lliwiau'r amgylchedd yn mynd yn fwy tywyll, roedd amser yn brin.En: With the colors of the environment becoming darker, time was of the essence.Cy: Wedi ystyried pob posibiliad, penderfynodd Eira ei bod yn gwella cymorth ei ffrindiau.En: After considering all possibilities, Eira decided to rely on her friends' assistance.Cy: "Mi wna i ddibynnu arnoch chi. Mae'n well ffeindio ffordd dan ddilyn eich awgrymiadau."En: "I'll depend on you. It's better to find a way by following your suggestions."Cy: Gyda sgil a datblygu o'r eiliad, adeiladodd Rhys a Carwyn splint syml gan ddefnyddio dwy ffon gref, tei a oedd ganddynt, a chysuro Eira i fyny wrth y populestable.En: With skill developed from the moment, Rhys and Carwyn built a simple splint using two sturdy sticks, a tie they had, and comforted Eira while she was at the summit shelter.Cy: Gyda phetrusen yn dechrau disgyn, dechreuon nhw ymdrech ddi-dor i bob llonydd rhwng y coed tal a'r llwyni brith sydd gan Barc Cenedlaethol Eryri.En: With rain starting to fall, they began an unbroken effort to safely navigate between the tall trees and variegated bushes of Eryri National Park.Cy: Er gwaethaf yr heriau, a chyn iddynt gyrradd ardal mwy diogel, llwyddon nhw i siap eu hunain a chwerthin tra'n ymdrin â pha mor ofnadwy oedd eu taith, yng nghysgod y caffi ymwelwyr wrth y lleiantol.En: Despite the challenges, and before they reached a safer area, they managed to cheer themselves up and laughed while dealing with how dreadful their journey had been, in the shadow of the visitor cafe at the incline.Cy: Gyda eu ffrindiau wrth ei hochr, dysgodd Eira wers bwysig.En: With her friends by her side, Eira learned an important lesson.Cy: Nid oedd pob cryfder yn ymwneud â gwneud popeth yn annibynnol, ond hefyd am ddeall y gall dibynnu ar eraill fod yr un mor gryf.En: Not all strength is about doing everything independently, but also about understanding that relying on others can be just as strong.Cy: A gyda hynny, teimlodd Eira rwyddineb newydd, nid dim ond yn ei chorff ond hefyd yn ei chalon.En: And with that, Eira felt a new ease, not just in her body but also in her heart.Cy: Roedd y mynydd wedi dysgu hi lawer mwy nag oedd hi'n disgwyl - y byddai cryfder hefyd mewn cyfeillgarwch a gwaith tîm, a byddai hynny'n parhau gyda hi i'r cyfnod nesaf.En: The mountain had taught her much more than she expected—that strength also lies in friendship and teamwork, and that would stay with her for the next phase.
