Yn nhawliau tebyg i gofebion sy’n pylu ar ben bryn, gorwedd Castell Dinas Brân mewn dirgelwch ac ymdeimlad o ddirgelwch diddiwedd.
Like monuments that fade at the top of a hill, Castell Dinas Brân lies in mystery and a sense of endless secrecy.
Roedd basteg moment yn sefydlogi’r awyr feddal o gwmpas y sarn sy’n disgyn i’r dyffryn, lle nad yw na’r dail blinedig na’r cerrig mudiadwy yn tarfu ar degan y wybodaeth.
A momentary silence settled the soft air around the path that descends into the valley, where neither the weary leaves nor the shifting stones disturb the tranquility of knowledge.
Y prynhawn hwnnw, o dan fflachiadau'r haul gwanwyn, cuddiodd Gwilym ei ben yng ngweithrediad cloddio.
That afternoon, under the flashes of the spring sun, Gwilym buried his head in the excavation activity.
Roedd ei olwg yn drwm â gobeithion uchel a phwysau amser.
His gaze was heavy with high hopes and the weight of time.
Gwilym, archaeolegydd go garw ond cariadus, oedd eisiau profiad y theori dadleuol a gafodd gan ei athro diweddar: bod Castell Dinas Brân yn safle o ddefodau derwyddol.
Gwilym, a rough yet loving archaeologist, wanted to experience the controversial theory provided by his late teacher: that Castell Dinas Brân was a site of Druidic rituals.
Ar gopa'r safle y mae ei gymheiriaid yn rhigol, mae Aeron a Meleri yn gweithio ochr yn ochr ag ef.
At the peak of the site where his companions were digging, Aeron and Meleri worked alongside him.
Meleri, gyda’i llygaid praff a'i lleisyn tawel, oedd yn amheus am ymgais hwyrach Gwilym.
Meleri, with her keen eyes and quiet voice, was skeptical about Gwilym's late endeavor.
“Mae angen gofal, Gwilym,” rhybuddiodd hi, “ac amser ar ben hyn oll.”
“Care is needed, Gwilym,” she warned, “and time on top of all this.”
Fodd bynnag, roedd Gwilym eisoes wedi gwneud ei benderfyniad.
However, Gwilym had already made his decision.
Rhywbeth yn y ffordd roedd golau’r haul yn crybwyll ar geiriau'r ymchwil hen a’i tynodd i dyllioni mwy nag a ganiatawyd.
Something in the way the sunlight hinted at the words of ancient research drew him to dig deeper than was allowed.
Dan noson las, cymerodd arfau agored ac aeth yn ddyfnach.
Underneath a blue night, he took open tools and went deeper.
Wrth iddo dyngu drwy’r llwydni a’r mwsogl, cyrhaeddodd Cerrig cain.
As he swore through the grayness and moss, he reached fine stones.
Roedd yn greadigol ei siap, gyda chymarweithau a thaw yno oedd amser wedi'u claddu o dan wôs ein dyddiau.
They were creatively shaped, with patterns and silence where time had buried them under the noise of our days.
Cafodd Gwilym y teimlad hwnnw trwy gadarnhau fflachiadau eglur o simbolau derwyddol.
Gwilym had that feeling confirmed by clear flashes of Druidic symbols.
Wrth iddo garthu’r cerrig, cychwynnodd y storm.
As he unearthed the stones, the storm began.
Gorffwysodd y gwynt yn glaw taranau uwch y castell.
The wind settled into a thunderous rain above the castle.
Dŵr yn llithro drwy’r breuddwyddio a chamau hanner di-ddefnydd oedd ar y tir diffrwyth hynafol.
Water slipped through the dreaming and the half-useless steps of this ancient barren land.
Roedd y tablet wedi gwlychu, rhydd o gwmpas ei egni.
The tablet was soaked, free within its energy.
Ond mae Gwilym yn gadarn.
But Gwilym was steadfast.
Gyda’i dwylo'n cryfhau a'i galon yn codi, rhoddodd ei hun wrth wraidd y pryder a pholoi'r darganfyddiad yn gyflymach.
With strengthening hands and a rising heart, he placed himself at the root of anxiety and polished the discovery faster.
Pan oedd y glaw yn peidio wrth lewyrch cyntaf y wawr, roedd cerflun cerrig yn ei ddwylo—heb niwed.
When the rain ceased at the first gleam of dawn, a stone carving was in his hands—unharmed.
Wrth i'r storm dawelu, ymunodd Meleri ac Aeron gyda Gwilym, y tablet ddoeth yn eu dwylo.
As the storm quieted, Meleri and Aeron joined Gwilym, the wise tablet in their hands.
Roedd tystiolaeth wedi'i thynnu allan o'r tir marwaidd wedi newid hamdden a phryder i llwyddiant a gobaith newydd.
Evidence pulled from the desolate land had transformed leisure and worry into success and new hope.
Deffrodd Gwilym y bore nesaf gyda’r hunanfwyaf hyder a hir-gwmwl gwybod pwy oedd ef teulu i athrylu ei athro.
Gwilym awoke the next morning with utmost confidence and a long-awaited understanding of who he was family to astonish his teacher.
Roedd y daith wedi ei wneud iddo deimlo agosach at y castell, a chloddi o berthynas newydd â’r hanes a’r gymuned wrth ei ochr.
The journey had made him feel closer to the castle and had carved a new relationship with the history and the community by his side.
Roedd hyn yn ddechreuad newydd, nid dim ond iddo fe ond i bawb a falle yn dal dau ddwy'i derwyddoedd henafol.
This was a new beginning, not just for him but for everyone who might once have held the ancient Druids' secrets.
