Deffroir fy nghysglyd lwch Pan genir udgorn Duw; Daw carcharorion angeu du I gyd i fyny'n fyw. O mewn galar, neu mewn hedd, Caf dd'od o'r bedd i'r làn; Pa un ai gwynfyd pur, neu boen, Fydd fy nhragwyddol ran! O Dduw! dod imi le Yn mysg y dyrfa fawr, I'th foli byth yn nheyrnas ne', Mewn gwisgoedd fel y wawr!William Edwards 1773-1853
Tonau [MB 6686]: gwelir: Ai marw raid i mi? |
My sleeping dust is to be awakened When God's trumpet is sounded; The prisoners of black death will come All up alive. From in grief, or in peace, I will get to come up from the grave; Whether pure blessedness, or pain, Shall be my eternal portion! O God, give me a place Amongst the great throng, To praise thee forever in the kingdom of heaven, In clothes like the dawn!tr. 2010 Richard B Gillion |
And am I born to die? To lay this body down? And must my trembling spirit fly Into a world unknown? Soon as from earth I go, What will become of me? Eternal happiness or woe Must then my portion be. How shall I leave my tomb? With triumph or regret? A fearful or a joyful doom, A curse or blessing meet?Charles Wesley 1707-1788
