Mae trefn ogoneddus i'r beius gael byw

Mae trefn ogoneddus
    i'r beius gael byw,
A'r enw'n ddiogel
    a ddychwel i Dduw;
  Trefn golchi pechadur
      yn bur, beb un bai,
  A'r clod yn ddiddarfod
      i'r Drindod heb drai.
Edward Jones 1761-1836

[Mesur: 11.11.11.11]

There is a glorious scheme
    for the faulty to get to live,
And the name of anyone safe
    who returns to God;
  A scheme to wash a sinner
      pure, without any fault,
  And the praise undying
      to the Trinity without ebbing.
tr. 2022 Richard B Gillion
