Duw mawr, ymostwng y mae ef, I edrych gwaith angylion nef; Ei olwg dafla law'r yn llòn, I edrych hynt y ddaear hon. Mae'n goruch-lywodraethu'r byd, A'n hamgylchiadau ninau gyd; Ond i eneidiau difalch prudd, Ei ofal a'i gynghorion rydd. O! n'allai'n calon chwilio i ma's Ryw deyrnged f'ai mor fawr â'th ras; I'r drydedd nef ein cân gei dd'od, I ddysgu i'r aur delynau'th glod.cyf. Caniadau Y Cysegr 1855 [Mesur: MH 8888] |
Great God, bowing he is, To look at the work of the angels of heaven; His sight he casts down cheerfully, To look at the course of this earth. He is the supreme governor of the world, And surrounding us always; But to humble, sad souls, His care and his counsels he gives. O that our hearts could seek out Some tribute that would be as great as thy grace; That to the third heaven our song could come, To teach the golden harps thy praise.tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion |
