Y mae gwedd dy wyneb grasol, Yn rhagori llawer iawn, Ar bob peth a welodd llygaid, Ar hyd wyneb daear lawn; Rhosyn Saron, Ti yw tegwch nef y nef. 'Rwy'n dy garu er nas gwelais, Mae dy gariad fel y tân, Nis gall nwydau cryfa' natur, Sefyll mymryn bach o'th flaen; Fflam angerddol, Ryw bryd ddifa'm sorod yw. Aed y nos derfysglyd heibio, Doed y bore cyn bo hir, Pan y caffo'm henaid wledda, Yn y Ganaan hyfryd bur; Gyda myrddiwn, O'i rai anwyl ffyddlawn ef. O gwasgerwch dew gymylau, I'r addewid rhoddwch le, Nid i'r ddaear yma'm ganwyd, Tragwyddoldeb yw fy lle; 'Nol tywyllwch, Côd o'r diwedd fore wawr. Mi ddymunwn wel'd yn rhwygo, Holl gymylau du y nef, I bechadur weled gronyn, O'i ogoniant hyfryd ef; O datguddia, I mi ran o'th enw mawr. - - - - - 1,2,3; 1,2,4,5; 1,4,6. Y mae gwedd dy wyneb grasol Yn rhagori llawer iawn, Ar bob peth a welodd llygad Ar hyd wyneb daear lawn: Rhosyn Saron, Ti yw tegwch nef y nef. Gwyn a gwridog yw f'anwylyd, Mae'n rhagori oll i gyd, Ar y cwbl etto grëwyd Yn y wybr faith a'r byd: Bodlon fyddaf, Ond cael edrych ar ei wedd. Mae angelion yn cael bywyd, Yn ei ddwyfol nefol hedd; Ac yn sugno'u holl bleserau Oddiwrth olwg ar ei wedd: Byd o heddwch, Yw cael aros yn ei wydd. Nid yw harddwch maith y ddaear, Harddwch o wahanol ryw, Tegwch dysglaer y ffurfafen, Ddim, wrth ochr Iesu'm Duw: Fe ddiflana, Tegwch natur ger ei fron. Ac os yw ei degwch yma Yn rhoi myrdd i'w garu'n awr, Beth a wna ei degwch hyfryd Fry yn nhrag'wyddoldeb mawr? Nef y nefoedd, Ei ryfeddu byth a wna. Mi ddymunwn wel'd yn rhwygo Holl gymylau du y nef, Fel y gallwyf weled gronyn O'i ogoniant hyfryd Ef: O! dadguddia, Degwch llon dy wyneb pryd.William Williams 1717-91

Lewes (John Randall 1717-99) gwelir: Aed y nos derfysglyd heibio Ar ddisgwylfa uchel gribog Boed fy nghalon iti'n demel Gwyn a gwridog yw fy Arglwydd Iesu Iesu wyt yn ddigon Mi ddymunwn wel'd yn rhwygo Nid o'r ddaear mae fy mhleser O gwasgerwch dew gymylau 'Rwy'n dy garu er nas gwelais |
The countenance of thy gracious face is Very much better Than everything that eyes have seen, Across the face of the whole earth; Rose of Sharon, Thou art the fairness of the heaven of heaven. I love thee although I never saw thee, Thy love is like the fire, Nor can the strongest lusts of nature Stand a short moment before thee; A passionate flame, Some time devouring my dross it is. May the tumultuous night go past, Let the morning come before long, When my soul may get to feast, In the pure, delightful Canaan; With myriads, Of those faithful dear ones of his. O scatter, ye thick clouds, To the promise give ye way, Not for this earth am I born, Eternity is my place; After darkness, Rise at last morning dawn. I would wish to see rending, All the black clouds of heaven, For a sinner to see a grain, Of his delightful glory; O reveal, To me a part of thy great name. - - - - - The countenance of thy gracious face is Very much better Than every thing the eye ever saw Across the face of the whole earth: Rose of Sharon, Thou art the fairness of the heaven of heaven. White and ruddy is my beloved, He is altogether better Than everything yet created In the vast sky and the world: I shall be satisfied, Only to get to look on his countenance. Angels are getting to live, In his divine, heavenly peace; And to suck all their pleasures From the look on his countenance: A world of tranquility, Is to get to stay in his presence. The vast beauty of the earth, Beauty of a different kind, The radiant fairness of the firmament, Are nothing, beside Jesus my God: The fairness, Of nature shall vanish before him. And if his fairness here Gives a myriad to love him now, What shall his delightful fairness above Do in a great eternity? The heaven of heavens, Shall make it wonder forever. I wish to see rending All the black clouds of heaven, Thus I may see a grain Of his delightful glory: O reveal, The cheerful fairness of thy countenance.tr. 2019 Richard B Gillion |
