Na'd fi, Iesu, fyn'd yn w'radwydd I ynfydion gwâg y byd; Na'd fy nwydau fod yn chwerthin I d'elynion di ynghyd: Gair o'th enau Ddeil fy ysbryd llesg i'r lan. Mil sy'n disgwyl, myrdd fydd lawen, Wel'd fy enaid gwan dan draed; 'R hyn i mi fydd ddwfn archoll Iddynt hwy sy'n llawn iachâd: Ond mae d'allu 'N llawer mwy nag uffern fawr. Ac er cryfed yw y maglau, Er cadarned yw y swyn, Er mor fynych temtasiynau, Ac er gwaned wyf i'w dwyn; Ni chaf golli Dim o'r goron, dim o'r dydd. Dychwel im gysuron gloyw Fel y dyddiau goreu erioed; Gad im gerdded, fel yn fachgen, Etto unwaith wrth dy droed; A chael aros Dan dy gysgod nos a dydd.William Williams 1717-91
Tonau [878747]: gwelir: Rho gydwybod wedi ei chànu |
Do not let me, Jesus, become the scorn Of the vain fools of the world; Do not let my passions be the laughter Of all thy enemies: A word from thy mouth Shall hold my weak spirit up. A thousand are waiting, a myriad shall be joyful, To see my weak soul under foot; That to me shall be a deep wound For them who are full of health: But thy power is Much greater than great hell. And although so strong are my snares, Although so firm is the enchantment, Although so frequent temptations, And although so weak am I to be led; I shall not lose The crown, or the day, at all. Return to me radiant comforts Like the best days ever; Let me walk, just as a child, Once again, at thy foot; And get to stay Under thy shade night and day.tr. 2018 Richard B Gillion |
