Nefol Dad erglyw ein gweddi

Nefol Dad, erglyw ein gweddi
  Wrth ŵynebu'r flwyddyn hon,
Mae'n hamserau yn dy ofal,
  A'n helyntion ger dy fron;
      Dyro brofi
    Hedd dy gariad, doed a ddêl.

Nefol Dad, er gwaetha'n blinder
  Pan fo'r daith
        yn siomi'n bryd,
Ninnau'n amau dy ddaioni
  Ac yn credu'n hofnau i gyd,
      Dyro brofi
    Hedd dy gariad, doed a ddêl.

Nefol Dad, wrth gerdded rhagom
  I unigedd ambell awr,
Wedi colli llawer wyneb
  A fu'n llonni llwybrau'r llawr,
      Dyro brofi
    Hedd dy gariad, doed a ddêl.
T Eirug Davies 1892-1951

Tôn: Dwyfor (alaw Eidalaidd)

Heavenly Father, listen to our prayer
  While facing this year,
Our times are in thy care,
  And our courses before thee;
    Grant us to experience
  The peace of the love, come what may.

Heavenly Father, despite our exhaustion
  When the journey be
        disappointing our mind,
We doubt thy goodness
  And believe all our fears,
    Grant us to experience
  The peace of the love, come what may.

Heavenly Father, while walking onward
  To loneliness several times,
Having lost many a face
  That cheered the paths of earth below,
    Grant us to experience
  The peace of the love, come what may.
tr. 2022 Richard B Gillion
