Ar edyn ffydd, c'od, f'enaid, uwch y byd, A gwel y gyfran yn y nefoedd glyd! Nis traetha tafod fyth y mwyniant pêr Sydd yn yr ardal lòn uwch haul a sêr; Lle mae fy Mrynwr trud mewn gwir ogoniant, Uwch uffern ddû a'r bedd, yn cael y moliant. I'r ardal hon ni ddaw na braw na phoen, Na gelyn mwy i ŵydd yr addfwyn Oen; Na thristwch prudd, nac ofn o un rhyw; Pob deigryn hallt a sychir ffwrdd gan Dduw, Lle mae fy Mrynwr trud ... O flaen y fainc rhed afon ddisglaer gu, A gwyrdd-der haf byth ar ei glànau sy; A brigau Dwyfol Pren y Bywyd pur Gysgoda holl drigolion nefol dir, Lle mae fy Mrynwr trud ... Ni ddengys haul ei ddifudd oleu wawr, A goleu gwàn y lloer 'does eisiau 'nawr; Tywyna'r Duwdod yma lewyrch mwy, Mewn hawddfyd hir, heb elyn byth na chlwy', Lle mae fy Mrynwr trud ... Un olwg hoff a leinw'm henaid gwàn! - Iesu! pa bryd y caf di imi'n rhan! - Pa bryd caf dirio i fy nghartref gwiw, A gado'r ddaear hon a dechreu byw, Lle mae fy Mrynwr trud mewn gwir ogoniant, Uwch uffern ddû a'r bedd, yn cael y moliant?cyf.

Tonau [10.10.10.10.11.11]: gwelir: Trwy Ddinas Duw rhêd afon ddisglaer gu |
On the wings of faith, rise, my soul, above the world, And see the whole in secure heaven! No tongue shall ever expound the sweet enjoyment That is in the cheerful region above sun and stars; Where my precious Redeemer is in true glory, Above black hell and the grave, getting the praise. To that region shall come neither terror nor pain, Nor any enemy any more into the presence of the dear Lamb; Nor sad sorrow nor fear of any kind; Every salt tear shall be dried away by God, Where my precious Redeemer is ... Before the throne runs a dear shining river, And the verdancy of summer is forever on its banks; And the twigs of the pure Divine Tree of Life Shades all the inhabitants of heavenly land, Where my precious Redeemer is ... The sun shall not show its dim light of dawn, And of the weak light of the moon there is no need now; The radiance of the Godhead shall shine here evermore, In long blessedness with never any enemy or wound, Where my precious Redeemer is ... One delightful view shall fill my weak soul! - Jesus, when shall I get thee as my portion? - When shall I land at my worthy home, And leave this earth and begin to live, Where my precious Redeemer is in true glory, Above black hell and the grave, getting the praise?tr. 2018 Richard B Gillion |
