O Arglwydd, dyro awel, a honno'n awel gref, i godi f'ysbryd egwan o'r ddaear hyd y nef; yr awel sy'n gwasgaru y tew gymylau mawr; mae f'enaid am ei theimlo: o'r nefoedd doed i lawr. Awelon Mynydd Seion sy'n cynnau nefol dân; awelon Mynydd Seion a nertha 'nghamre 'mlaen; dan awel Mynydd Seion mi genais beth cyn hyn; mi ganaf ronyn eto nes cyrraedd Seion fryn.Dafydd William 1720-94
Tonau [7676D]: |
O Lord send a breeze, And that a strong breeze, To raise my feeble spirit From the earth as far as heaven; The breeze which scatters The great, thick clouds; My soul wants to feel it: Let it come down from heaven. Breezes of Mount Zion Which kindle heavenly fire; Breezes of Mount Zion Which strengthen my steps ahead; Under the breeze of Mount Zion I have sung somewhat already; I shall sing a little longer Before I reach mount Zion.tr. 2008 Richard B Gillion |
O Lord, give us the breezes, Oh, give the tearful eyes, Oh, let us in our weakness See unbeclouded skies. The mighty wind will scatter The clouds all from the sky, The clouds that now are hiding From us the light on high. The breezes from Sion's hill Will fan the heavenly flame, The breezes from Sion's hill Will help the weak and maim. By the gales from Sion's hill We've sang in days of yore, By gales of holy Sion We'll sing and Thee adore.tr.
