O Arglwydd! aros - aros gyda ni! Pa beth a wnawn heb Dy gymdeithas Di? Pwy leinw'th le? Nid cyfoeth, dawn, na dysg: Am hyny, Arglwydd, aros yn ein mysg. Nid addurniadau gwych o ddynol waith, Na dyddiol gylchoedd o ddefodau, chwaith, Ond llewyrch hoff Dy bresenoldeb byw, Wnai gynt y deml yn dŷ i Ti, Dduw! O Arglwydd! aros - aros yn ein plith! Ac yna bydd Dy fynydd dan y gwlith; Daw'n holl rasusau i hyfrydaf hwyl, A bydd Dy saint fel tyrfa'n cadw gwyl.William Ambrose (Emrys) 1813-73
Tonau [10.10.10.10]: |
O Lord, stay - stay with us! What shall we do without Thy company? Who shall fill thy place? Not wealth, talent, nor learning: Therefore, Lord, stay in our midst. Not the brilliant adornments of human work, Nor the daily cycles of devotions, either, But the beloved gleam of Thy living presence, Would quickly make the temple into a house for Thee, God! O Lord, stay - stay amongst us! And then Thy mountain shall be under the dew; All our graces become the most delightful joy, And Thy saints be as a throng keeping a festival.tr. 2014 Richard B Gillion |
