Mae'r haul o ddydd, i ddydd yn sôn Am nerth yr Iôn yn llafar; Mae'n dangos holl-alluog waith I wledydd maith y ddaear. Y nôs mae'r lloer, heb gwsg na hun, Yn traethu'r un rhyfeddod, Adrodd y mae i'r byd bob awr, Ddechread mawr eu hanfod. O'u cylch holl sêr yr wybrawl fro, Ac yn eu trô'r planedau, Sy'n taenu'r hanes wir o hyd O'r gogledd fyd i'r dehau. Beth er eu bod, a disdaw rô, Yn cylchu'r frô ddaearol? Beth er na gair na iaith y glywn O'u rhodau maith ddisgleiriol?

Above our head is a vast firmament, And the shining blue celestial work, The radiant circle of the heavenly citadel are Declaring the infinite architect. The sun is from day to day sounding Loudly about the strength of the Lord, It declares the almighty work To the vast lands of the earth. By night the moon is, without sleep or slumber, Expounding the same wonder, Reporting it is to the world every hour The great beginning of his existence. From their circuit all the stars of the heavenly region, And in their turn the planets, Are spreading the true story always From the north world to the south. What though they are, with silent turns, Circling the earthly region? What though no word nor language is heard From their vast, radiant courses? Reason despite this shall hear their cry From the vault of heaven in the same way, Singing forever with never-failing song "The right hand of the Lord created us." word nor language is heard :: no voice nor language comes never-failing :: unceasing
- - - - - Above our head is a great firmament, And an atmosphere of shining blue brightness, And beautiful skies which are always Showing the great Creator of the world. The sun is from day to day sounding Very clearly about the strength of the Lord, And publish through every land The works of an Almighty Father. By night the moon of white brightness is Expounding the same great wonder, By telling to the silent, black earth His remarkable story from above. From their circuit the stars of the heavenly region are, With all the planets in their orbit, Confirming the story in their journey Through the far corners of the vast earth. Reason hears them from the vault of heaven All reporting, with a loud voice, While singing as long as they shine, - "He has made us all by a divine hand."tr. 2014,17 Richard B Gillion |
The spacious firmament on high, With all the blue ethereal sky, And spangled heavens, a shining frame Their great Original proclaim. Th'unwearied sun, from day to day, Does his creator’s powers display, And publishes to every land The work of an almighty hand. Soon as the evening shades prevail The moon takes up the wondrous tale, And nightly to the listening earth Repeats the story of her birth; While all the stars that round her burn And all the planets in their turn, Confirm the tidings as they roll, And spread the truth from pole to pole. What though in solemn silence all Move round the dark terrestrial ball? What though no real voice nor sound Amid the radiant orbs be found? In reason's ear they all rejoice, And utter forth a glorious voice, Forever singing as they shine, "The hand that made us is divine."
