Mi ganaf anthem bêr

Mi ganaf anthem bêr,
  O fawl i'm Harglwydd Dduw,
Pan ar drigfanau Salem dir
  Yn iach y b'wyf yn byw.
Bydd galar wedi ffoi,
  A'r Iesu'n rhoi mwynhâd
O'r gwir lawenydd pur didranc
  Sydd yn ei gariad rhad.
Caniadau y Cyssegr a'r Teulu 1878

Tôn [MBD 6686D]: Idwal (B M Williams 1832-1903)

I shall sing a sweet anthem,
  Of praise to my Lord God,
When on dwellings of Salem land
  Safe I shall be living.
Mourning shall have fled,
  And Jesus giving enjoyment
Of the true, pure, undying joy
  That is in his free love.
tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion
