a ddatodir, fod i ni aeilad gan Dduw, sef tŷ nid o waith llaw, tragwywyddol yn y nefoedd." - 2 Cor v.1)
Os fy naearol, waelaidd dŷ
Yn raddol sy'n ymddattod,
A'r dydd o'u syrthio'n lân i lawr
O awr i awr yn dyfod, -
Os pridd a llwych yw'r babell hon
Ag sydd ym mron dadfeilio,
Mae imi dŷ
ar amgen sail,
Oes, oes i ail breswylio.
Y mae i'r rhai a garant Nêr
Fry uwch y sêr anneddau,
Na fena treiglia amser byth
Ar eu tragyfyth furiau.
I eigion môr yn haul a syrth,
Diflanna gwyrth yr wybren;
Bydd yn y nef fy lletty clyd
Er hyn i gyd yn ddien.
Cyfnewid byth un oed ni wna
Ar y breswylfa nefol;
A'i sail yn ddewr,
a'i gwedd yn wyn,
Ar Sïon fryn trag'wyddol.

demolished, that we have a building from God, that is, a house not made by hand, eternal in the heavens." - 2 Cor 5:1)
If my earthly, lowly house
Gradually is crumbling,
And the day of its completely falling down
From hour to hour coming, -
If soil and dust is this tent
Which in my breast is decaying,
There is for me a house
on a better foundation,
Yes, yes there is to reside again.
There are for those who love the Lord,
Up above the stars, dwellings,
Time shall never finish turning
On their eternal walls.
To the ocean sea the sun shall fall,
Disappear shall the miracle of the sky;
In heaven shall be my secure lodging
Despite all this as destruction.
Never shall one age change
On the heavenly residence;
With its foundation mighty,
and its surface white,
On Zion hill eternally.
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion
