Edrychwn yn y bennod hon ar un arall o gerddi Taliesin. Roedd y traddodiad mawl yn cynnwys canu clodydd i arweinwyr a fu farw, a dyma a gawn yn y gerdd bwerus hon. Nodwn fod ‘Marwnad Owain’ yn cyfeirio at y fuddugoliaeth sy’n cael ei dathlu yn y gerdd ‘Gwaith Argoed Llwyfain’; teimlir bod campau go iawn dyn go iawn yn cael eu coffáu yma. Yn ogystal â’i allu milwrol, mae’r bardd yn canmol haelioni Owain. Ac wrth graffu ar y geiriau sy’n agor ac yn cloi’r gerdd, pwysleisiwn ei bod hi’n perthyn i gyd-destun cwbl Gristnogol a bod y farwnad hon yn cyfuno mawl gyda gweddi. ** ‘Elegy for Owain son of Urien’ In this episode we look at another of Taliesin’s poems. The praise tradition including paying tribute to dead leaders, and that’s what we have in this powerful poem. We note that this elegy for Owain refers to the victory celebrated in another of Taliesin’s poems, ‘The Battle of Argoed Llwyfain’; there is a sense that the real feats of a real man are being commemorated here. In addition to his military ability, the bard praises Owain’s generosity. And while considering the words which open and close the poem, we stress that it belongs to an entirely Christian context and that this elegy combines praise with prayer.

Mae’r bennod hon yn trafod un o’r cerddi sy’n cael eu priodoli i’r bardd Taliesin. Ystyr y gair ‘gwaith’ yw ‘brwydr’, ac er nad ydym yn gwybod ble yn union oedd Argoed Llwyfain, mae’n sicr bod y lleoliad yn yr Hen Ogledd a bod y frwydr hon wedi digwydd tua diwedd y chweched ganrif. Roedd yn fuddugoliaeth i’r Brythoniaid ac mae’r bardd yn canmol eu harweinwyr, Urien a’i fab, Owain. Trafodwn y wedd ddramatig ar y gerdd wrth i’r bardd ail-greu sgwrs cyn y frwydr rhwng Owain a Fflamddwyn, arweinydd yr Eingl Sacsoniaid. Nodwn fod y gerdd waedlyd hon hefyd yn hoelio sylw ar swyddogaeth y bardd ei hun. ** ‘The Battle of Argoed Llwyfain’ This episode discusses one of the poems attributed to the bard Taliesin. The word ‘gwaith’ means ‘battle’, and although we don’t know where exactly Argoed Llwyfain was, it’s certain that the location was in the Old North and that this battle took place sometime towards the end of the sixth century. It was a victory for the Brittonic Celts and the bard praises their leaders, Urien and his son, Owain. We discuss the poem’s dramatic nature, as the bard recreates the discussion before the battle between Owain and Fflamddwyn, the leader of the Angl-Saxons. We note that this bloody poem also draws attention to the function of the poem himself.

Dyma ni’n cyflwyno’r penodau sy’n trafod dwy o gerddi Taliesin, ac rydym ni’n gwneud hynny trwy edrych ar Lyfr Taliesin ei hun, un o’r trysorau a gedwir yn Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru. Crëwyd y llawysgrif ryfeddol hon yn ystod hanner cyntaf y bedwaredd ganrif ar ddeg, ond mae’n cynnwys casgliad o gerddi sy’n cael eu priodoli i’r bardd Taliesin a oedd yn canu mawl i arweinwyr ei gymdeithas yn yr Hen Ogledd yn y chweched ganrif. Mae’n ddiddorol meddwl am y cerddi hyn yn teithio trwy amser o’r cyfnod hynafol hwnnw i’r Oesau Canol wrth iddynt deithio o’r Hen Ogledd i Gymru. A digwyddodd rhywbeth arall yn ystod y daith honno hefyd: oherwydd ei statws fel un o’r cynfeirdd sy’n sefyll ar ddechrau hanes y traddodiad barddol Cymraeg, aeth Taliesin yn gymeriad chwedlonol. Felly yn ogystal â’r canu mawl hanesyddol, mae Llyfr Taliesin yn cynnwys nifer o gerddi a gysylltir â’r Taliesin chwedlonol, cymeriad gyda phwerau goruwchnaturiol sy’n ymgnawdoliad o hud a grym barddoniaeth Gymraeg. ** The Book of Taliesin Here we introduce the episodes which discuss two of Taliesin’s poems, and we do that by looking at the Book of Taliesin itself, one of the treasures kept in the National Library of Wales. This amazing manuscript was created during the first half of the fourteenth century, but it includes a collection of poems which are attributed to Taliesin, the bard who sang praise to the leaders of his society in the Old North in the sixth century. It’s interesting to think about these poems travelling through time from that ancient period to the Middle Ages as they travelled from the Old North to Wales. And something else happened during that journey as well: because of his status as one of the earliest poets standing at the beginning of the Welsh bardic tradition, Taliesin became a legendary character. Thus, in addition to the historical praise poetry, the Book of Taliesin contains a number of poems connected to the legendary Taliesin, a character with supernatural powers who is an incarnation of Welsh poetry’s magic and might.
