Lleisiau plant sy'n peraidd ganu

Lleisiau plant sy'n peraidd ganu
  Gylch yr orsedd yn y nef:
Duw a'u galwodd i'w foliannu
  A mwynhau Ei gwmni Ef:
    Arglwydd, tyner wyt i ni -
    Galw plant i'th foli Di.

Ar y ddaear canwn ninnau
  Fawl i'r Iesu, Ceidwad dyn,
Fynn ein dwyn
      i'r nef-drigfannau
  At y plant, ac ato'i Hun:
    Arglwydd, tyner wyt i ni -
    Galw plant i'th foli Di.

Tra yn canu byddwn ufudd,
  Byddwn dyner, byddwn bur:
Cesiwn rinwedd, mynnwn grefydd -
  Hyn a'n dwg i'r nef yn wir.
    Arglwydd, tyner wyt i ni -
    Galw plant i'th foli Di.
David Adams (Hawen) 1845-1923

Tôn [8787.77]: Lleisiau Plant (Hadley Watkins)

Children's voices are sweetly singing,
  Round the great white throne of Him,
Who hath called them from their labours,
  To enjoy their rest with Him:
    "Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
    Thou dost love a little child."

On the earth let us too sing
  Praise to Jesus, the Saviour of man,
He insists on leading us
      to the heaven-dwellings
  To the children, and to Himself:
    "Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
    Thou dost love a little child."

While singing let us be obedient,
  Let us be meek, let us be pure:
Let us seek virtue, let us insist on belief -
  This will lead us to heaven truly.
    "Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
    Thou dost love a little child."
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion
Children's voices sweetly singing,
  Round the great white throne of Him,
Who hath called them from their labours,
  To enjoy their rest with Him:
    "Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
    Thou dost love a little child."









Little children, sweetly singing,
  As in heaven, so on the earth;
Let us gather round His altar,
  Here to prove to Him our worth:
    "Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
    Thou dost love a little child."
