Dyma'r Perl a dal ei garu, 'Mhob caledi, fach a mawr, Iesu ydyw, mae ei enw Ef yn llanw nef a llawr; Perl a bery yn dragywydd, Perl o ddefnydd mawr ei bris, Alpha, Omega, f'enaid cofia, Na foddlona ar ddim sydd is. Perl ni thoddir, ac ni losgir, Perl ni threulir byth i ma's, Perl a welir yn dyscleirio, Pan ddarfyddo'r ddaear lās, Perl a wna i'r rhai a'i caffo, Seinio can na dderfydd byth, O fewn i gaerau'r nefoedd oleu, 'Mysg myrddiynau rif y gwlith.
Dafydd William 1720-94 [Mesur: 8787D] |
Here is the Pearl that is still loved, In every hardship, small and great, Jesus it is, his name is Flooding heaven and earth; A Pearl that shall endure in eternity, A Pearl of greatly priced material, Alpha, Omega, my soul remember, Do not be satisfied with anything less. A Pearl not to be melted, and not burned, A Pearl never to be worn out, A Pearl to be seen shining, When the blue-green earth passes away, A Pearl that makes those who get it, Sound a song that shall never end, Within the citadels of bright heaven, Amongst myriads as numerous as the dew. tr. 2021 Richard B Gillion |
