Mân ddyferion dwfr, Mân ronynau'r traeth, Ffurfiant y môr llydan, A'r ddaearen faith. Felly'r mân fynudau Dreulir ar y llawr, Ffurfiant oesoedd meithion Tragwyddoldeb mawr. Felly'r mân gamweddau, Heb gael cymhorth gras; Arwain wnant yr enaid I bechodau cas. Mân weithredoedd tyner, - Geiriau bychain cu, - Gwnant ein byd yn Eden, Fel y nefoedd fry.cyf. J E Y Delyn Aur 1868 Tôn [6565]: Pethau Bychain (<1868) |
Little drops of water, Little grains of the beach, Form the wide sea, And the vast earth. Thus the little minutes Spent on the earth, Form the vast ages Of great eternity. Thus the little transgressions, Without getting the help of grace; Lead the soul To detestable sins. Little tender deeds, - Dear little words, - Make our world an Eden, Like heaven above.tr. 2020 Richard B Gillion |
Little drops of water, Little grains of sand, Make the mighty ocean And the beauteous land. And the little moments, Humble though they be, Make the mighty ages Of eternity. So our little errors Lead the soul away, From the paths of virtue Into sin to stray. Little deeds of kindness, Little words of love, Make our earth an Eden, Like the Heaven above.1845 Julia A Carney 1823-1908
