Podlediad Cysylltiadau Barddonol #4 | Poetry Connections podcast #4

Recordiwyd y pedwerydd podlediad Cysylltiadau Barddonol ar faes yr Eisteddfod Genedlaethol ym Môn. Er bod Sampurna Chattarji wedi ymweld â Chymru droeon o'r blaen, dyma oedd ei hymweliad cyntaf â'r brifwyl, a hynny ddydd Iau, pan gyhoeddwyd enillydd yr Her Gyfieithu, a dydd Gwener, diwrnod y cadeirio. Hon yw'r sgwrs olaf rhyngof i a Sampurna yma yng Nghymru fel rhan o'r prosiect hwn – bydd y podlediad nesaf yn cael ei recordio yn India ddiwedd Hydref, pan fyddaf i'n ailymuno â Sampurna yn Kolkata. Tan hynny, mwynha'r sgwrs ddifyr hon am ymrysona, am gerrig yr Orsedd ac am ganu'n iach!

​The fourth Poetry Connections podcast was recorded at the National Eisteddfod on Anglesey. Sampurna Chattarji has visited Wales many times, but this was her first visit to the Eisteddfod, an annual cultural celebration of everything Welsh. I'm glad Sampurna got to see the Eisteddfod in the sun on Thursday, when the winner of the Translation Challenge was announced, and the prestigious chairing ceremony more than made up for the change in weather on Friday. This edition of the podcast will be the last recorded in Wales as part of this project – the next will be recorded in India at the end of October, when Sampurna and I will be reunited in Kolkata. Until then, enjoy this latest conversation about poetry competitions, the Gorsedd of the Bards and singing farewell!
