Iesu tirion, gwnaethost le I rai bychain yn dy dŷ; Eiddynt hwy yw teyrnas ne', Ac mae cartref iddynt fry. Dysg ni'n iawn i'w dysgu hwy, Ac i'w cadw wrth dy draed, Boed eu diogelwch mwy O dan arwydd pur y gwaed. Derbyn di ein plant i'w dwyn Yn dy ffordd dy hun i'r ne'; Ti yw Bugail da yr ŵyn, A dy fynwes yw eu lle.
Howell Elvet Lewis (Elfed) 1860-1953
Tonau [7777]: |
Gentle Jesu, thou didst make room For little ones in thy house; To them belongs the kingdom of heaven, And there is a home for them above. Teach us rightly to teach them, And to keep them at thy feet, May their safety evermore be Under the pure sign of the blood. Receive thou our children to lead them In thine own way to heaven; Thou art the good Shepherd of the lambs, And thy bosom is their place. tr. 2024 Richard B Gillion |
