On'd ydych chwi'n dywedyd?

On'd ydych chwi'n dywedyd
  Fod eto bedwar mis,
Ac yna daw'r cynhauaf
  Toreithiog gyda brys?
Dyrchefwch chwi eich llygaid,
  Medd Iesu, Brenin nef,
Can's gwynion ydyw'r meusydd
  Lle mae ei wenith Ef.
William Williams 1717-91
Y Drych. Mehefin 30, 1887. Tud.5.
Are ye not saying
  That there are still four months,
And then will come the plentiful
  Harvest with haste?
Lift up your eyes,
  Says Jesus, the King of heaven,
Since white are the fields
  Where His wheat is.
tr. 2015 Richard B Gillion
Today are ye not saying?







tr. Howell Elvet Lewis (Elfed) 1860-1953
