Deffrown a seiniwn newydd gân I'n Ceidwad mawr ei fri, Wrth inni gofio'r bore glân Pan ddaeth i'n daear ni; Rhyw angel da a seiniai'r dôn O fewn i'r Wynfa wen; Ymlaen o gylch i gylch âi'r sôn Drwy holl delynau'r nen. Uwch, uwch o hyd y chwyddai'r gân, Y mawl a lanwai'r lle; Cân newydd oedd; O! ganu pêr; Ai'n fwy na llond y lle. I lawr trwy byrth y nef y daeth, Yn rhyw ryferthwy mawr; Ac engyl ddoent, mewn llawen floedd A'r newydd yma i lawr.Parch. John Rowlands, Llanelli. Llawlyfr Moliant 1930 Tôn [MCD 8686D]: St Matthew (William Croft 1677-1727) |
Let us wake up and sound a new song To our Saviour of great renown, As we remember the holy morning When he came to our earth; Some good angel would sound the tune Within the bright Paradise; Forward from circle to circle went the sound Through all the harps of the sky. Higher, still higher would swell the song, The praise would fill the place; A new song it was; Oh sweet singing! Which would more than fill the place. Down through the portals of heaven it came, As some great wonder; And angels would bring, in a joyful shout The news down here.tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion |
