Y penaf drysor heddyw yw

(Gwerthfawr waed Crist)
Y penaf drysor heddyw yw,
O fewn y nefoedd, gwaed fy Nuw,
  Holl sylwedd y caniadau i gyd;
A dyma'r gwaed
    a roddodd iawn,
I bur gyfiawnder nef yn llawn -
  Fy hedd a'm cysur yn y byd.

Am iddo farw ar y bryn, 
Ca'dd f'enaid bach ei gànu'n wyn, 
  A'i dynu o'i gadwynau'n rhydd; 
"Wel, bellach dan ei haeddiant Ef, 
Fel cysgod cedrwydden gref, 
  Gorphwysaf mwy yn ngwres y dydd.
William Williams 1717-91

Tôn [888D]: Rhosyn Saron (alaw Gymreig)

gwelir: Gwnawd concwest ar Galfaria fryn

(The precious blood of Christ)
The chief treasure today i,
With heaven, the blood of my God,
  The whole substance of all the songs;
And here is the blood
    that gave Satisfaction,
To the pure righteousness of heaven fully -
  My peace and my comfort in the world.

Since he died on the hill,
My little soul got bleached white,
  And taken from its chains free;
"See, henceforth un his merit,
Like the shadow of a strong cedar tree,
  I shall rest evermore in the day's heat.
tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion
