Mae'n bryd i ni ganu ni gawsom y fraint, Mae'r rhyfel yn cerdded o ochr y saint; Mae'n Brenin ni'n dyfod â'i gledde ar ei glun, Fe sathrodd y gwinwryf bob gronyn ei hun. Caf gyda'm Hanwylyd deyrnasu mewn hedd, Yn mhell uwch cyrhaeddiad holl ddychryn y bedd, Cawn wisgo coronau filiynau y'nghyd, A chanmawl byth bythoedd Iachawdwr y byd. Y clod, a'r gogoniant, a'r gallu, bob rhyw, A redo fel moroedd i enw fy Nuw, Y dechreu a'r diwedd o'r ddaear i'r ne', O ras ac o haeddiant ei hunan yw E'. - - - - - Mae'n bryd i ni ganu, ni gawsom y fraint, Mae'r rhyfel yn cerdded o ochr y saint: Gan hynny dechreuwch, mae'n ddigon o bryd, I ganu caniadau i Brynwr y byd. Fe safodd i fynu, fe 'nillodd fath glod, Bydd myrdd yn ei ganmol tra'r nefoedd yn hod; Efe wnaeth y cwbl, moliennir ef byth, Gan nefoedd a daear yn dyrfa dilyth. Yn awr fe orphenodd, fe grymodd ei ben. Mae heddyw'n meddiannu'r holl ddaear a'r nen: Mae'r meirw'n cyfodi, gorchfyg'odd y hedd, Mewn awr o gyfyngder fe wrendy fy llef. Fel hyn fe a'm carodd, yn rhodd ac yn rhad, Pa drysor mor dirfawr a gwerthfawr a gaed! Oen anwyl ei fynwes a gefais yn gu, Ac ynddo'n guddiedig fy mywyd i sy. Mi gê's y ffrind goreu fyth fyth all'sai fod, 'R addewid a roddodd ni thorrodd erio'd; Er byw'n ei ogoniant y'nghanol y nef, Mewn awr o gyfyngder fe wrendy fy llef.William Williams 1717-91
Tonau [11.11.11.11]: gwelir: Dewch gwelwch y preseb a chofiwch yr awr Ehengodd fy nghalon 'dwy'n deall pa fodd Mi ge's y Ffrynd goreu fyth fyth all'sai fod Yr afon a lifodd rhwng nefoedd a llawr Yr Arglwydd a'm carodd i'n rhyfedd erioed |
It is time for us to sing we got the privilege, The war is going the way of the saints; Our King is coming with his swords on his thigh, He trampled the winepress every grain himself. I shall get with my Beloved to reign in peace, Par above the reach of all the dread of the grave, Millions of us shall get to wear crowns all together, And extol forever and ever the Saviour of the world. The acclaim, and the glory, and the power, every kind, Shall run like seas to the name of my God, The beginning and the end from the earth to heaven, Of grace and of virtue he himself is. - - - - - It is time for us to sing, we got the privilege, The war is going the way of the saints: Therefore begin ye, it is high time, To sing songs to the King of the world. He stood up, he won such acclaim, A myriad shall be extolling him while ever the heavens be; 'Tis he made the whole, he is to be praised forever, By heaven and earth an unfailing throng. Now he finished, he bowed his head. Today he is possessing all the earth and the sky: The dead are arising, he overcame the grave, In an hour of straits he will listen to my cry. Thus he loved me, as a gift and freely, What treasure so precious and valuable is found? A beloved lamb of his bosom I got to be dearly, And in him hidden my life is. I got the best friend that ever, ever could be, The promise he gave he never broke; Although living in his glory in the centre of heaven, In an hour of straits he will listen to my cry.tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion |
