Gawn ni drio?"En: Aneira did her best to agree: "We're so close. Can we try?"Cy: Roedd y goleuni’n pylu, ac roedd gwynt oer y rhew yn eu hylifo.En: The light was fading, and the cold icy wind chilled them.Cy: Roedd traed yn suddo mewn ia a chwynt eirth, gan droi'r tir yn beryglus.En: Their feet sank into ice and bear-like gusts, turning the ground dangerous.Cy: Roedd y cryndod yn cynyddu gan ymbil arnynt i stopio.En: The trembling intensified, pleading with them to stop.Cy: Ond Gwyneth, angen dyfalbarhau yn heriol, camodd ymlaen.En: But Gwyneth, stubbornly determined to persevere, stepped forward.Cy: Ar y dibyn, roedd pawb yn gweld dim ond tywyllwch.En: On the precipice, all they saw was darkness.Cy: Y rhaeadr, fel addewid prin a basio, oedd ar ddychymyg Gwyneth—ond fe slywadodd ar y glwyd, gwynt y rhew yn ei wthio.En: The waterfall, like a fleeting promise, was in Gwyneth's imagination—but she noticed the edge as the icy wind pushed her.Cy: Dechreuodd hi lithro, pan oedd lladd Emrys a llon Emrys yr un pryd yn dod at ei gilydd i’w chrafu'n ôl yn saff.En: She began to slip, when both worried and joyous reactions of Emrys combined to claw her back to safety.Cy: Anerchodd Emrys yn galonogedig wrth eu tynnu yn ôl i ddiogelwch: “Mae cymryd risg weithiau yn angenrheidiol, ond dim ond os yw’n diogel, Gwyneth.”En: Emrys addressed them encouragingly as he pulled them back to safety: “Taking risks is sometimes necessary, but only if it's safe, Gwyneth.”Cy: Yn olaf, fe ddaethant o hyd i ogof fechan, lleoliaeth dwym ac esmwyth sy’n cynnig lloches rhag y storm enfawr.En: Eventually, they found a small cave, a warm and cozy haven offering shelter from the immense storm.Cy: Roedd Aneira yn clymu cwfli ei chot agos at ei phen, wedi gwerthfawrogi enwogrwydd Emrys a'i ddoethineb.En: Aneira tightened the hood of her coat close to her head, appreciating Emrys's fame and wisdom.Cy: Wrth i'r eira roi tlysni i'r dirwedd, fe gwrandawodd pawb ar soud o fwye awel wedi ymlâdd.En: As the snow added beauty to the landscape, they all listened to the sound of a gentle breeze winding down.Cy: Wrth aros drwy’r nos, yn llawn cynhesrwydd cyfeillion, dysgodd Gwyneth fod ganddi mwy i’w ennill o wrando ar y rheiny sydd o'i chwmpas.En: While waiting through the night, filled with the warmth of friendship, Gwyneth learned she had much to gain from listening to those around her.Cy: Er nad oeddent wedi cyrraedd y rhaeadr, roedd eu perthynas wedi dyfnhau, fel rhaniad ensawdd y Beacons ei hun.En: Although they did not reach the waterfall, their bond had deepened, like the intangible cleft of the Beacons itself.Cy: Y bore wedyn, roedd y eira’n llonydd, y tymestl wedi pasio.En: The next morning, the snow was still, and the storm had passed.Cy: Roedd teithiau newyddion yn aros.En: New journeys awaited.Cy: Efallai y flwyddyn nesaf, efallai y ddysg gan y tro hwn yn eu harwain yn wir, ond roedd un peth yn sicr — dim ond ymgais garedig sydd ei angen i gadw’r holl anturiaethau.En: Perhaps next year, maybe the lessons from this time would guide them truly, but one thing...
