Mae'r oesau'n disgyn draw Fel ton ar don i'r mâr, Ac oes ar oes a ddaw Wrth drefniad doeth yr Iâr; Ond syfled oesau, cilied dyn, Mae Iesu Grist yn para'r un. Dymunwn gael mwynhau 'R prydferthion welwn draw, Ond wedi mynyd brau, Darfyddant yn ein llaw! Holl flodau'r llawr, yr awel chwyth, Ond pren y bywyd bery byth. Mae Eglwys Dduw yn gref Yn nghryfder Iesu mawr Er syrthio sêr y nef Fel ffigys ir i'r llawr; Saif hon yn deg ar sail ddi-grŷn, Mae Iesu Grist yn para'r un. Hugh Cernyw Williams (Cernyw) 1843-1937
Tonau [666688] |
The ages are descending yonder Like wave upon wave into the sea, And age upon age shall come By the wise ordinance of the Lord; But let ages shift, let man retreat, Jesus Christ remains the same. I wish to get to enjoy The beautiful things I see yonder, But after becoming fragile, They all perish in our hand! All the flowers of the earth, the breeze blows, But the tree of life endures forever. The Church of God is strong In the strength of great Jesus Though the stars of heaven fall Like fresh figs to the ground; This shall stand fair on an unshakeable base, Jesus Christ remains the same. tr. 2013,21 Richard B Gillion |
