I'm only a welsh beginner, but I'll have a try...

I imagine that a rough English translation for Imram might be 'quest'
An online welsh dictionary gives either 'ymchwiliad' or 'cais'

or..if you're using it in the sense of a voyage, you might try "mordaith" or "taith". Depends to a great extent on how you want to use the word.

Oh, please, just another question : what the difference between "mordaith" or "taith" ?

I just saw this and I may be way too late but just in case;
"Taith" literally journey "Mor" means Sea so "Mordaith would be Seajourney or Voyage.
