The Wolf and the Crane – Y Blaidd a’r Craen
Once upon a time, there was a very wicked wolf. The wolf was eating a large fish. In its greed, it ate a large bone. The bone was very sharp and it got stuck in its throat. The wolf howled in pain.
TranslateUnwaith, roedd blaidd drygionus iawn. Roedd y blaidd yn bwyta pysgodyn mawr. Yn ei drachwant, bwytaodd asgwrn mawr. Roedd yr asgwrn yn finiog iawn ac fe aeth yn sownd yn ei wddf. Roedd y blaidd yn udo mewn poen.
“Oh the bone hurts so much. What should I do to get it out? Maybe I should cough?” he thought.
He tried to cough and get it out.
“Cough!! Cough!!” he loudly coughed. But the bone did not move and was still in his throat.
Translate“O, mae’r asgwrn yn brifo cymaint. Beth ddylwn i wneud i’w gael allan? Efallai y dylwn besychu? ” meddyliodd.
Ceisiodd besychu a’i gael allan.
“Peswch !! Peswch !! ” pesychodd yn uchel. Ond ni symudodd yr asgwrn ac roedd yn dal yn ei wddf.
“Oh the bone hurts so much. What should I do to get it out? Maybe I should drink water?” he thought.
He gulped down a lot of water.
“Gulp!! Gulp!!” he drank the water. But the bone did not move and was still in his throat.
Translate“O, mae’r asgwrn yn brifo cymaint. Beth ddylwn i wneud i’w gael allan? Efallai y dylwn i yfed dŵr? ” meddyliodd.
Llyncodd lawer o ddŵr.
“Llwnc !! Llwnc !! ” yfodd y dŵr. Ond ni symudodd yr asgwrn ac roedd yn dal yn ei wddf.
“Oh the bone hurts so much. What should I do to get it out? Maybe I should eat some more?” he thought.
He ate one more piece of fish.
“Crunch!! Crunch!!” he ate the fish. But the bone did not move and was still in his throat.
Translate“O, mae’r asgwrn yn brifo cymaint. Beth ddylwn i wneud i’w gael allan? Efallai y dylwn i fwyta rhywfaint mwy? ” meddyliodd.
Bwytaodd un darn arall o bysgodyn.
“Cnoi !! Cnoi !! ” bwytaodd y pysgod. Ond ni symudodd yr asgwrn ac roedd yn dal yn ei wddf.
“Oh the bone hurts so much. What should I do to get it out? I need help” he thought.
He walked around and saw a crane. He saw that the crane had a very long neck and a very long beak.
Translate“O, mae’r asgwrn yn brifo cymaint. Beth ddylwn i wneud i’w gael allan? Dwi angen help ”meddyliodd.
Cerddodd o gwmpas a gweld craen. Gwelodd fod gan y craen wddf hir iawn a phig hir iawn.
“If the crane puts its beak and head down my throat, it can take out the bone” thought the wolf. The wolf went to the crane and spoke to it.
“Mrs Crane. A piece of bone is stuck to my throat. Can you please help me out? I will reward you very well.”
Translate“Os yw’r craen yn rhoi ei big a’i ben i lawr fy ngwddf, fe all dynnu’r asgwrn allan” meddyliodd y blaidd. Aeth y blaidd at y craen a siarad ag ef.
“Mrs Craen. Mae darn o asgwrn yn sownd yn fy ngwddf. A allwch fy helpu os gwelwch yn dda? Fe’ch gwobrwyaf yn dda iawn. ”
The crane knew the wolf was wicked but she was greedy. She thought to herself “But I want the reward so much. Maybe the wolf will give me so many fish that I don’t need to hunt ever again”
“Of course, Mr Wolf. I shall help you”, said the crane and reached down his throat and pulled the bone out. The wolf was very happy and thanked the crane.
TranslateRoedd y craen yn gwybod bod y blaidd yn ddrwg ond roedd hi’n farus. Meddyliodd wrth ei hun “Ond rydw i eisiau’r wobr gymaint. Efallai y bydd y blaidd yn rhoi cymaint o bysgod i mi nad oes angen i mi eu hela byth eto. ”
“Wrth gwrs, Mr Blaidd. Fe’ch cynorthwyaf i chi ”, meddai’r craen a chyrraedd ei wddf a thynnu’r asgwrn allan. Roedd y blaidd yn hapus iawn a diolchodd i’r craen.
“Thank you Mrs. Crane. I shall be leaving now”, he said walking away.
“But you promised me a reward Mr Wolf”, said the greedy crane.
The wolf turned and growled at the crane.
Translate“Diolch Mrs. Craen. Byddaf yn gadael nawr ”, meddai wrth gerdded i ffwrdd.
“Ond fe wnaethoch chi addo gwobr i mi Mr Blaidd”, meddai’r craen barus.
Trodd y blaidd a chwyrnu ar y craen.
“Reward? Did I not give you your reward already? I did not eat you when you put your head down my throat. Don’t you think that is a good reward?”
Saying so, the wolf walked away and the crane learnt a lesson.
Translate“Gwobr? Oni roddais eich gwobr ichi eisoes? Ni wnes i eich bwyta pan roddoch eich pen i lawr fy ngwddf. Onid ydych chi’n meddwl bod hynny’n wobr dda? ”
Gan ddweud hynny, cerddodd y blaidd i ffwrdd a dysgodd y craen wers.
Moral: Expect no reward for serving the wicked.
TranslateMoesol: Peidiwch â disgwyl unrhyw wobr am wasanaethu’r drygionus.
