Gorfoledd mawr yr eglwys yw

Gorfoledd mawr yr eglwys yw,
  Gweld geiriau Duw yn llwyddo,
Gan ddwyn ei blant oedd gynt ymhell,
  I'w babell i breswylio.
Music Book of John W Williams 1852-3

The jubilation of the church is
  To see the words of God prosper,
By bringing the children who were once far away,
  To his tent to reside.
tr. 2013 Richard B Gillion
