Yng ngolau melyn haul yr hydref, roedd y cledrau ledled y cwrt carreg yn welw dan yr awyr eang.

In the yellow autumn sunlight, the rails across the stone courtyard were pale under the vast sky.

Roedd muriau castell mawr yn creu ochr bwerus i'r sgwâr hynafol, tra roedd dail yn cwympo fel hdrychau gwyrdd, melyn a coch o goedwig agos.

The walls of the large castle formed a powerful side to the ancient square, while leaves fell like green, yellow, and red mirrors from the nearby forest.

Yr oedd dwsin o ddysgwyr yn sefyll yng nghanol y cwrt, disgyblion ifainc yn astudio'r grefft o hela gyda bwa a saeth.

A dozen learners stood in the middle of the courtyard, young students studying the craft of hunting with bow and arrow.

Roedd Owain, sgwier ifanc gyda'i wallt melyn a'i lygaid brown, yn sefyll ychydig ar ei ben ei hun, ei wyneb yn dangos cymysgedd o gyffro a phryder.

Owain, a young squire with his blond hair and brown eyes, stood a little on his own, his face showing a mix of excitement and anxiety.

"Rhaid i mi wneud hyn," meddai Owain i'w hun, ei galon yn pwyntio tuag at y nod.

"I must do this," Owain said to himself, his heart fixed on the target.

Roedd yn cofio geiriau ei dad, saethwr medrus, yn dweud wrtho am arbenigrwydd a pheth i amddiffyn.

He remembered the words of his father, a skilled archer, telling him about excellence and something to protect.

Roedd Owain eisiau profiad hynod gyda'i ergyd gyntaf, gan obeithio ei bod yn hyfryd fel ergyd ei dad.

Owain wanted an extraordinary experience with his first shot, hoping it would be as wonderful as his father's shot.

"Yn barod?

"Ready?"

" gofynnodd Meurig, y hyfforddwr, yn garedig ac yn strict.

asked Meurig, the instructor, kindly yet strictly.

Y ddisgyblion eraill, gan gynnwys Gwen, ei ffrind agos, yn gwenu gyda disgwyliad.

The other pupils, including Gwen, his close friend, smiled with anticipation.

Roedd Owain yn magu goleuni ar y bwa yn ei ddwylo, ac yn teimlo'r bysedd yn crynu gyda phryder.

Owain grasped the bow in his hands, feeling his fingers tremble with anxiety.

"Cofia dy dechneg," sibryddodd Meurig.

"Remember your technique," Meurig whispered.

"Canolbwyntia ar dy fanal a thy ehangiad.

"Focus on your breath and your expansion.

Paid â chynddeiriog.

Do not rush."

"Pan oedd wedi penderfynu, cymerodd Owain anadl ddofn, yn dod â'r atgofion cynnes i'r wyneb.

When he was ready, Owain took a deep breath, bringing warm memories to the surface.

Parodd y curiad yn ei frest i golli ei rythm brin fel pwysau cae llaith.

The beating in his chest lost its rare rhythm like the pressure of a damp field.

Pan daeth yr amser, rhyddhaodd yr eirch, saeth yn fflachio i'r awyr.

When the time came, he released the arrow, which flashed into the air.

Roedd pob llygad ar Owain.

All eyes were on Owain.

Y saeth yn llechu yn y nod, ac y câi ei welwyd yn drwm ond nid mewn anogaeth.

The arrow nestled in the target, and although it was not a resounding success, it was encouraging.

"Da iawn, Owain!

"Well done, Owain!"

" gwaeddodd Meurig â gwen ar ei wyneb, yn agosach at y targed nag erioed.

shouted Meurig with a smile on his face, closer to the target than ever before.

"Cywirdeb yn gwella, gi yma tu hwnt pob ergyd.

"Accuracy is improving, far beyond each shot."

"Gwen wnaeth roi cnocen ar ei gefn, a phawb yn dangos eu cymeradwyaeth â phlwf.

Gwen patted his back, and everyone showed their applause with cheer.

Gwelwyd Owain deimlad o ryddhad a balchder, ei wyneb yn disgleirio gan falchder newydd.

Owain felt a sense of relief and pride, his face shining with newfound pride.

Er nad oedd wedi cyrraedd y canol, dysgodd Owain rhywbeth pwysig.

Although he hadn't hit the center, Owain learned something important.

Nid perffeithrwydd ond gwelliant oedd y gwir buddugoliaeth.

It was not perfection but improvement that was the true victory.

Ac y tro hwn, ag y bydd bob tro wedyn, Owain wnaeth gamu'n hyderus tu hwnt y bali mawreddog ymhellach.

And this time, and every time thereafter, Owain stepped confidently beyond the grand barrier further.
