Beth yw'r ddisglair wawr sy'n torri? Gwawr efengyl ydyw hon; Beth yw'r cynnwrf sy'n cynyddu? Ffoi mae'r fagddu ger ei bron: Deuwch, gonglau t'wylla'r ddaear, I groesawu'r hyfryd wawr - Na foed pagan dan y nefoedd Heb gael gweld y golau mawr. Beth yw'r sŵn parhaus sy'n treiddio? Atsain yr hyfrydlais yw; Beth yw sŵn y genadwri? Gwaredigaeth dynol-ryw: Haleliwia! bellach canwn, Torrwyd grym pob cadwyn gref; Brysiwn, brysiwn tuag adref, I lawenydd llawn y nef.William Ambrose (Emrys) 1813-73 Tôn [8787D]: Austria (F J Haydn 1732-1809) |
What is the radiant dawn that is breaking? The dawn of a gospel is this; What is the tumult that is increasing? Fleeing is the thick fog before him: Come ye darkest corners of the earth, To welcome the delightful dawn - May no pagan under heaven be Without getting to see the great light. What is the continuous sound that is penetrating? The echo of the delightful voice it is; What is the sound of the messengers? The deliverance of human-kind: Hallelujah! henceforth let us sing, Broken is the force of every strong chain; Let us hurry, hurry toward home, To the full joy of heaven.tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion |
