Yr Iesu oedd a'i drigfan erioed yn mynwes Duw, A ddaeth o'r nef ei hunan, yn achos dynolryw: Bu'n dyoddef dan yr hoelion, mae'n awr ar orsedd nef; Fe waedodd i farwolaeth; gogoniant iddo ef. Er syrthio y gronyn gwenith, a hauwyd yn y tir, Fe welir cnwd yn tyfu o hono cyn bo hir: Ac oni b'sai ei farw ni buasa obaith byw, I enaid un pechadur o aflan ddynolryw. Fe ddarostyngodd Iesu ei enaid sanctaidd cun; Fe roes ei gorph i'w hoelio, gan waith ei dwylaw ei hun: Ein natur ni gymerodd, yn ddyn yr aeth i'r bedd; Ond Alpha Omega ydoedd, er tloted oedd ei wedd.Trysorfa Ysbrydol 1799
Thomas Charles 1755-1814 [Mesur: 13.13.13.13] |
Jesus had his dwelling always in God's bosom, Who came from heaven himself, in the cause of humankind: He suffered under the nails, he is now on heaven's throne; He bled to death; glory to him. Although the grain of wheat fell, which was sown in the land, A crop is to be seen growing because of it before long: And unless he had died we would have no hope of living, For the soul of any sinner from unclean humankind. Jesus humbled his dear, holy soul; He gave his body to be nailed, by the work of his own hands: Our nature he took, as man he went to the grave; But Alpha Omega he was, despite how poor was his appearance.tr. 2015 Richard B Gillion |
