En: One fine summer morning in Eryri, Gwilym, Rhian, and Dafydd decided to go for a picnic. Cy: Roedd y tirwedd yn fendigedig, gyda mynyddoedd uchel a glaswellt gwyrdd sgleiniog dros y bryniau. En: The landscape was magnificent, with high mountains and shiny green grass over the hills. Cy: Roedd yr awyr yn las, yn arwydd o ddiwrnod perffaith. En: The sky was blue, a sign of a perfect day. Cy: Wrth deithio, holodd Dafydd, "Rhian, wyt ti'n siŵr y bydd y picnic yn barod erbyn ni'n cyrraedd? En: While traveling, Dafydd asked, "Rhian, are you sure the picnic will be ready by the time we arrive?" Cy: " Gwenu wnaeth Rhian, gan ddweud, "Mae'r cyfan yn y basged, Dafydd. En: Rhian smiled, saying, "Everything is in the basket, Dafydd. Cy: Pob dim dan reolaeth. En: Everything is under control." Cy: "Ond, wrth iddynt ddod o gwmpas cornel o'r llwybr, ymddangosodd dafad haerllug. En: But, as they came around a corner of the path, an audacious sheep appeared. Cy: Heb fawr o rybudd, rhedodd hi'n uniongyrchol atynt a chipiodd y fasged o law Gwilym. En: Without much warning, it ran straight at them and grabbed the basket out of Gwilym's hand. Cy: "Hei! En: "Hey! Cy: Dechreuwch redeg! En: Start running!" Cy: " galwodd Rhian, yn ffurfio cynllun yn ei meddwl wrth iddynt gychwyn y ras i ddal y ddafad. En: called Rhian, forming a plan in her mind as they began the race to catch the sheep. Cy: Gwnaeth Gwilym arwain, yn benderfynol o brofi ei fod yn gallu arwain y tîm. En: Gwilym took the lead, determined to prove he could lead the team. Cy: Er ei clymserydig, roedd ei ewyllys yn gryf. En: Though clumsy, his will was strong. Cy: Gan ddod drwy ddringo cysylltiadau serth a dilyn lwybrau troellog, roedd y tri yn chwerthin a chrio gyda'u rhuthr. En: Running through steep climbs and following winding paths, the three laughed and cried with their rush. Cy: "Dal hi, Gwilym! En: "Catch it, Gwilym!" Cy: " bytholion Rhian, yn canmol ei ymdrech. En: cheered Rhian, praising his effort. Cy: Yn y diwedd, daeth y tri ar draws y ddafad wrth ymyl clogwyn prydferth. En: In the end, the three came across the sheep by a beautiful cliff. Cy: Roedd yn ddianc, sefyll yno gyda'r fasged dal ar ei gefn. En: It was cornered, standing there with the basket still on its back. Cy: "O'n i'n chwarad wrth gwrs," wnaeth Dafydd ffraeo. En: "I was just kidding, of course," Dafydd jested. Cy: Roedd angen cynllun a Rhian oedd wedi gweld rhinwedd mewn ei crefft. En: A plan was needed, and Rhian had seen merit in her craftiness. Cy: Tynnodd Rhian allan ei lamp poced mawr, gan ei dallu ddigon i wneud y ddafad stopio'n syn. En: Rhian pulled out her large pocket lamp, blinding it just enough to make the sheep stop in surprise. Cy: Balchder oedd yn llygaid Gwilym wrth iddo gamu ymlaen i gymryd ôl y fasged. En: Pride was in Gwilym's eyes as he stepped forward to reclaim the basket. Cy: Ar ôl adfer y fasged, eisteddodd y tri ar diwedd y llwybr, yn mwynhau'r picnic a gosod eu diffygion. En: After recovering the basket, the three sat at the end of the path, enjoying the picnic and settling their mishaps. Cy: "Wel, mae gennym stori i'w hadrodd nawr," gwênodd Dafydd. En: "Well, we've got a story to tell now," grinned Dafydd. Cy: A Gwilym? En: And Gwilym? Cy: Roedd ei hyder newydd yn himladwy. En: His newfound confidence was palpable. Cy: Gyda phob picwnisyn, roedd cam newydd ym mis cau'r digwyddiadau hynod. En: With every bite, a new chapter in the remarkable events was closing. Cy: Roedd eu cyfeillgarwch yn gryfach a roedd Gwilym yn gwybod nad oedd yn rhy aml i ymddiried i fod yn arweinydd profiadol. En: Their friendship was stronger, and Gwilym knew it wasn't too late to trust in being an experienced leader. Cy: Roedd yr haul yn dechrau machlud ond ei wên ddyddogol o hyd yn aros am eu cyfeillion gorau. En: The sun began to set, but their joyful smiles remained for their best friends.
