Bendigaid fore, teg ei wawr, Y darfu i'n Duw a'n Prynwr mawr Gyfodi fyny'n wych ei wedd, A gorfoleddu ar y bedd. Yng ngharchar oer y beddrod du Y Prynwr gwiw yn gorwedd bu, Nes daeth oddi amgylch yn ddiludd Y trydydd appwyntiedig ddydd. Nis gallai'r bedd nac uffern ddu Mo gadw yn gaeth ein Ceidwad cu; Cyfodi wnaeth o'r bedd i'r lan, Gan dori'n rhydd eu cadwyn wan. O Arglwydd Ior, i'th enw Di Yr oriau hyn gyflwynwn ni, A seiniwn gān Hosanna i gyd O ddiolch am y sanctaidd ddydd.cyf. Cas. o Hymnau (... ein Heglwys) Daniel Jones 1863 [Mesur: MH 8888 |
Blessed morning, fair its dawn, When our God and our great Redeemer Rose up in brilliant condition, And was jubilant over the grave. In the cold prison of the black tomb The worthy Redeemer was lying, Until death came resistlessly from around him On the third, appointed day. Neither the grave nor black hell could Keep captive our dear Saviour; Arise he did up from the grave, Cutting free our weak chains. O Sovereign Lord, to thy name These hours we present, And we all sound a song of Hosanna Of thanks for the sacred day.tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion |
Blest morning, whose young dawning rays Beheld our rising God; That saw him triumph o'er the dust, And leave his dark abode! In the cold prison of a tomb The dear Redeemer lay, Till the revolving skies had brought The third, th'appointed day. Hell and the grave unite their force To hold our God in vain; The sleeping Conqueror arose, And bust their feeble chain. To thy great name, Almighty Lord, These sacred hours we pay; And loud hosannas shall proclaim The triumphs of the day.Isaac Watts 1674-1748 Hymns and Spiritual Songs 1707-09
