Pan gymerodd pechod aflan

Pan gymerodd pechod aflan
  Feddiant ar y cyntaf ddau,
Duw y cariad aeth dan rwymau
  Yn ei hanfod i gasáu;
Eto'n caru ac yn achub
  Yr un gwrthrychau o'i ddwyfol lid
Mewn ffordd gyfiawn, heb gyfnewid,
  Ond perffaith fod yr un o hyd.
Ann Griffiths 1776-1805
When unclean sin took
  Possession of the first two,
The God of love was bound
  In his essence to hate;
Yet loving and saving
  The same objects of his divine wrath
In a righteous way, without change,
  But being perfectly the same always.
tr. 2017 Richard B Gillion
When the primal pair fell captive







tr. H A Hodges 1905-76
