Wel f'enaid cerdd y fordd yn hŷ, Yn union tua Sïon frŷ, A chadw'th lygaid ar y nôd; Calfaria fryn lle gweli'r groes, A'i haberth arni tan ei loes, Rhyfeddod mwya'r nef erioed.

See, my soul, walk the way boldly, Directly towards Zion above, And keep thy eyes upon the mark; Calvary hill where thou seest the cross, And its sacrifice upon it under his anguish, The greatest wonder of heaven ever. The greatest thought about the pure hours, That I shall get to walk the Paradisiacal land, And drink pleasure which is enduring; In a land without radiance of sun or moon, Nor tumult of land nor agitation of sea, Is making me now rejoice. Reveal fully to me quickly, The vast glory of thy heavenly court, The undying pleasures of the holy land: O show to me that thou art my portion, And say thou mayst come up there, To be fully seen before long. Zion is to be seen like the dawn Despite how poor is their appearance now, Coming from the great affliction up; Without any ill or wounded amongst them, In the divine righteousness forever, They shall stand in the end in their portion. - - - - - See, my soul, walk the way boldly Directly towards Zion above, And keep thy eye upon the mark; Calvary hill where thou seest the cross, And its sacrifice upon it under his anguish; The greatest wonder of heaven ever. The hill is high, very hill, And the costly sacrifice is fully clear, That the far east and the south can see, The men where it is dark night, Despite how dark, look towards the cross, And see his piercing. The most distant Indians may get To see the nails in his feet, And see his head bowing down; He will wash these distant ones He will bleach them like the white snow, From their faults, small and great.tr. 2017,20 Richard B Gillion |
