Daeth sain Noël, gan angel o'r nef At y tlodion fugeiliaid ger Bethlehem dref, Lle'r oedden hwy yn gwylio eu praidd Yn y ddunos aeafol rhag gormes y blaidd. Noël, Noël, Noël, Noël, Fe aned Brenin Isräel. Wrth dremio'n daer tua'r dwyrain yn hy, Y seren odidog a welsant fry; Disgleiriai hi gan lewyrchu'n dlos Yn danbaid a llachar drwy'r dydd a nos. Yng ngolau hon, o'r dwyrain draw Daeth triawd y Doethion heb ofid na braw Gan chwilio'n ddwys am Frenin o fri, Ac felly dilynent y seren ill tri. Cyfeirio'i chwrs wnaeth y seren yn glir Tua'r gogledd-orllewin uwch Bethlehem dir; A dyna'r fan lle safodd hi Yn perlio uwch preseb yr Iesu ein Rhi. I mewn yr aeth y Doethion gwiw Yn wylaidd i foli sancteiddiaf Mab Duw; Ac yno'n hael, yn llety y gyr, Rhoddasant anrhegion, yn aur, thys a myrr. O seiniwn oll, yn beraidd gôr, Ein moliant soniarus i'r Arglwydd ein Hiôr; Yr hwn a wnaeth y cyfan sy'n bod Ac a brynodd â'i aberth bawb oll îs y rhod.cyf. Anadnabyddus Emynau Catholig 2006
Tôn: The First Noel |
A sound of Nowell came, by an angel from heaven To the poor shepherds near Bethlehem town, Where they were keeping their flock In the black wintry night from the tyranny of the wolf. Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, The King of Israel is born. On gazing intently towards the east boldly, The superb star they saw above; It shone, gleaming prettily, Fiery and bright through the day and night. In this light, from yonder east Came a trio of Wise Men without fear or terror Seeking intently for a King of renown, And thus those three followed the star. Direct their course did the star clearly Towards the north-west above the land of Bethlehem; And there is the place where it stood Glistening above the crib of Jesus our Lord. In went the worthy Wise Men Humbly to praise the most sacred Son of God; And there generously, in the lodging of the herd, They gave gifts, of gold, incense and myrrh. O let us all sound, as a sweet choir, Our sonorous praise to the Lord our Master; He who made everything that is And who redeemed with his sacrifice altogether everyone under the sky.tr. 2019 Richard B Gillion |
The first Noel the angel did say Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay; In fields where they lay tending their sheep, On a cold winter's night that was so deep. Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Born is the King of Israel. They lookèd up and saw a star Shining in the east, beyond them far; And to the earth it gave great light, And so it continued both day and night. And by the light of that same star Three wise men came from country far; To seek for a king was their intent, And to follow the star wherever it went. This star drew nigh to the northwest, Over Bethlehem it took its rest; And there it did both stop and stay, Right over the place where Jesus lay. Then entered in those wise men three, Full reverently upon the knee, And offered there, in His presence, Their gold and myrrh and frankincense. Then let us all with one accord Sing praises to our heavenly Lord; That hath made Heaven and earth of naught, And with His blood mankind hath bought.Traditional English Carol
