Er tywallt môr o waed, Trwy hwn ni chaed maddeuant, Aneirif ebyrth llesg eu rhyw, Rhy eiddil yw eu haeddiant. Ond, wele ar y groes, Yr Hwn a ro'es foddlondeb! Trwy briod aberth Crist ei hun, Daeth Duw a dyn mewn undeb. Mewn ing a gwaedlyd chwys, Bu'n gogoneddus Geidwad; Ond ni ddiffoddodd angeu llym Dragwyddol rym ei gariad. O'i brynedigion oll, Yr un ni chyfrgollir; Er sychu'r môr, er llosgi'r byd, Y rhai'n i gyd a gedwir. Robert Williams (Robert ab Gwilym Ddu) 1766-1850

Despite the shedding of a sea of blood, Through this forgiveness is not obtained, Innumerable sacrifices of a weak kind, Are too feeble in their merit. But, see on the cross, Him who gave satisfaction! Through the befitting sacrifice of Christ himself, God and man came into union. In anguish and bloody sweat He was a glorious Saviour; But sharp death has not extinguished The eternal force of his love. From all of his redeemed, Not one will be lost; Though the sea dry, though the world burn, All these will be saved. tr. 2010 Richard B Gillion |
