Yn hir bum mewn trueni mawr

Yn hir bum mewn trueni mawr,
  Heb brisio fawr am Iesu;
Yn awr i mi mor werthfawr mae!
  Ni allaf lai na'i garu.

gwelir: Trwy ras 'rwyf Arglwydd ger dy fron

Long was I in great misery,
  Without greatly valuing Jesus;
Now to me how precious he is!
  I can do no less than love him.
