Gorchfygodd Iesu un prydnawn

(Gorchfygu Angeu ac Uffern)
Gorchfygodd Iesu un prydnawn
  Y ddraig, a'i llawn gynllwynion;
A'i waed a roddodd i'n glanhau,
  A'n cànu ninau'n wynion.

Gogoniant byth i'r anwyl Un,
  A dynodd golyn angeu;
Ysbeiliodd uffern fawr ei grym,
  A rhyddion ydym ninau.
Robert Williams (Robert ap Gwilym Ddu) 1766-1850

Tôn [MS 8787]: Llangranog (John Parry 1787-1866)

gwelir: Gogoniant byth i'r anwyl Un

(Overcoming Death and Hell)
Jesus overcame one afternoon
  The dragon, and his full schemes;
With his blood he gave to cleanse us,
  And bleach us white.

Glory forever to the beloved One,
  Who pulled out the sting of death;
He spoiled hell of great force,
  And free are we.
tr. 2017 Richard B Gillion
