Dyrchafodd Crist o waelod bedd
Dyrchafodd o waelodion bedd

1,(2),3,4;  1,3,4,5.
(Esgyniad Crist)
Dyrchafodd Crist o waelod bedd
  Goruwch y nefoedd wen,
Lle'r eistedd ar orseddfainc hedd,
  A'i goron ar ei ben.

Ei glod a'i barch
    ni dderfydd mwy
  Drwy faith dragwyddol oes,
Am ddiystyru a myned trwy
  Waradwydd angau'r Groes.

"Yr Oen a laddwyd, teilwng yw!"
  Medd holl dafodau'r nef;
Ac uned pob creadur byw
  I'w foli ag uchel lef.

Am iddo oddef marwol glwy'
  A'n prynu drwy ei waed,
Caiff holl goronau'r
    nefoedd mwy
  Eu bwrw wrth ei draed.

Boed peraroglau'i enw drud
  Yn llenwi daear lawr,
A chladder enwau'r byd i gyd
  Yn enw Iesu mawr.
Dyrchafodd Grist o waelod :: Dyrchafodd o waelodion

Llewygai'r haul yn entrych nen
Yr Oen a laddwyd teilwng yw

(The Ascension of Christ)
Christ arose from depth of grave
  Above the glorious heavens,
Where he sits on a throne of peace,
  With his crown upon his head.

His praise and esteem
    shall nevermore pass away
  Through a vast eternal age,
For disregarding and going through
  The scorn of the death of the Cross.

"The Lamb who was slain, worthy is he!"
  Say all the tongues of heaven;
And let all living creature join
  To praise with a loud voice.

About his sufferinga mortal wound
  And buying us through his blood,
All the crowns of the heavens
    may henceforth get
  Cast at his feet.

Let the aromas of his dear name be
  Filling the earth below,
And all the names of the world to be buried
  In the name of great Jesus.
Christ arose from depth :: He arose from depths
