Hwn yw y sanctaidd ddydd, Gorffwysodd Duw o'i waith; A ninnau nawr, dan wenau Duw, Gorffwyswn ar ein taith. Hwn yw'r moliannus ddydd, Cydganodd sêr y wawr; Mae heddiw lawnach testun cân, Molianned pawb yn awr. Hwn yw y dedwydd ddydd, Daeth Grist o'i fedd yn fyw; O codwn oll i fywyd gwell, I ryddid meibion Duw. Hwn yw'r brenhinol ddydd, Mae Crist i gael ei le; O Dduw, rho heddiw weled drws Yn agor yn y ne'.Howell Elvet Lewis (Elfed) 1860-1953 Y Caniedydd Cynulleidfaol 1895
Tonau [MB 6686]: |
This is the sacred day, On which God rested from his work; And we too now, under the smiles of God, Rest on our journey. This is the praiseful day, When the stars of the dawn sang together; Today there is a song with a fuller theme, Let all sing now. This is the happy day, When Christ came from his grave alive; O let us rise to a better life, To the freedom of the sons of God. This is the royal day, On which Christ is to get his place; O God, grant today to see a door Open in heaven.tr. 2024 Richard B Gillion |
This is the sacred day When God's work was complete; And we, who do his work on earth, Rest at our Saviour's feet. This is the praiseful day, When when all of heaven did sing; Let us, whom Christ has made his own, Make earth as heaven ring. This is the happy day, When from the grave Christ came; Let us who share his risen life, Sound praises to his name. This is the royal day, To crown him Lord and King; For heaven opened wide to bless Our joyous praise we bring.tr. 2024 Richard B Gillion
