1,2,3,4,5,6,7; 1,2,5; 1,2,(5),7. 'Rwy'n dy garu er nas gwelais, Mae dy gariad fel y tān; Ni all nwydau cryf fy natur Sefyll mymryn bach o'th flaen; Fflam angerddol Rywbryd ddifa'r sorod yw. Pell uwch geiriau, pell uwch deall, Pell uwch rheswm gorau'r byd, Yw cyrhaeddiad perffaith gariad, Pan ennyno yn fy mryd: Nid oes tebyg Gras o fewn y nef ei hun. Rhaid im' gadael ei ddirgelion, Hyfryd heb eu traethu gyd, Am na's gallu, maent mor ddwfn Nes im' dreiddio maes o'r byd; Trag'wyddoldeb Mi gaf gwel'd ei gwreiddiau maes. Mi gaf ieithoedd, mi gaf ddeall, Mi gaf yno berffaith ras, I gael ffeindio hen ddyfnderoedd Pen Calfaria yn well i ma's; Tyred wyntoedd I gael chwythu'r nos i bant. Nid oes yno ddiwedd canu, Nid oes yno ddiwedd clod, Nid oes yno ddiwedd cofio Lles pob cystudd gaed erioed; Byth ni dderfydd Canmol Duw yn nhŷ fy Nhad. Yno caf fi ddweud yr hanes P'odd y dringodd eiddil gwan, Trwy afonydd, a thros greigydd Dyrus anial serth i'r lan; Iesu'i hunan Gaiff y clod trwy eitha'r nef. Dechreu canu, dechreu canmol Yn mhen mil o filoedd maith Iesu, bydd y pererinion Hyfryd draw ar ben eu taith; Ni cheir diwedd Fyth ar sŵn y delyn aur.

Y mae gwedd dy wyneb grasol, Yn rhagori llawer iawn, Ar bob peth a welodd llygaid, Ar hyd wyneb daear lawn; Rhosyn Saron, Ti yw tegwch nef y nef. Boed fy nghalon i ti'n deml, Arglwydd aros yno byth, Ac o fewn fy yspryd egwan, Gwna dy drigfa bur ddilyth; Gwledd wastadol, Fydd dy bresennoldeb i'm'. Daear, nef, ac uffern greulon, Sydd yn hollol tan dy law, Dy ddoethineb sydd yn trefnu 'R dwyrain, de', a'r gogledd draw; Ti bia'r cwbl, Wrth dy draed dymunwn fyw. Tyred hyfryd fore tawel, Tyred hapus ddedwydd ddydd, Pan bo'r dorau pres i agor, A'r carcharorion fyn'd yn rhydd; Rho arwyddion, O fod hyny yn nesāu. O na welwn ddydd yn gwawrio, Bore hyfryd tawel iawn, Haul yn codi heb un cwmwl, Felly'n machlud y prydnawn; Un diwrnod, Goleu eglur boed fy oes. Aed y nos derfysglyd heibio, Doed y bore cyn bo hir, Pan y caffo'm henaid wledda, Yn y Ganaan oleu glīr; Gydâ myrddiwn, O'i rai ffyddlon anwyl ef.William Williams 1717-91

I love thee despite not having seen; Thy love is like the fire; The strong passions of my nature cannot Stand a tiny bit before thee; A fervent flame Sometime it will devour the dross. Far above words, far above understanding, Far above the best reasoning of the world, Is the attainment of perfect love, When it kindle in my heart: There is nothing like Grace within heaven itself. I must leave its secrets, Delightful without expounding them all, For being unable, they are a deep sea Until I traverse out of the world; Eternity I will see its roots from then on. I will have languages, I will have understanding, I will have there perfect grace, To be better able to find out The old depths of the Head of Calvary; Come winds To blow the night away. There, there is no end to singing, There, there is no end to praise, There, there is no end to remembering The benefit of every affliction ever had; Forever without ceasing Praise-song of God in my Father's house. There I may tell the story How he climbed, feeble, weak, Through rivers, and over the rocks Of a tricky, steep desert to the goal; Jesus himself Will have the praise through the highest heaven. Singing will begin, praising will begin At the head of a thousand thousands in extent Jesus, the pilgrims will be Pleasant yonder at the end of their journey; There will be no end Ever to the sound of the golden harp.
- - - - - I love thee though despite not having seen, Thy love is like the fire, The strongest lusts of nature cannot Stand a short moment before thee; A fervent flame, Devouring my dross some time is. The countenance of thy gracious face is Exceeding very much, Everything my eyes can see, All along the face of the full earth; The Rose of Sharon, Thou art the fairness of the heaven of heaven. Let my heart be to thee a temple, Lord, abide there forever, And within my weak spirit, Make thy pure, unfailing dwelling; A constant feast, Will be thy presence to me. Earth, heaven, and cruel hell, Are wholly under thy hand, Thy wisdom it is which ordains The east, south, and yonder north; To thee belongs the whole, At thy feet I would wish to live. Come, delightful, quiet morning, Come, happy, felicitous day, When the brass doors should open, And the prisoners go free; Give signs, Of this being near. O that I might see the day dawning, A delightful, very quiet day, Sun rising without any cloud, Likewise setting in the evening; One day, Of clear light be my lifespan. Let the tumultuous night go past, Let the morning come before long, When my soul may get to feast, In the Canaan of clear light. With myriads, Of his dear faithful ones.tr. 2008,15 Richard B Gillion |
There shall I rehearse the story, How a weakling faint and worn, Was o'er rocks and through deep waters, To eternal glory borne: Jesus wholly, Shall absorb the songs of heaven. But begun will be the singing Unto Jesus round His throne, By the saved when tardy ages With their songs and joys are flown: And for ever, Shall the golden harps resound.tr. 1854 Joseph Morris (original order vv.2,1)
