Afon amser [ddygodd/gludodd] ymaith

Afon amser gludodd ymaith
  Frodyr i mi fwy na rhif;
Ar eu hol 'rwyf finau'n myned
  Yn ddiaros gyda'r llif;
Pethau daear, troion amser,
  O'm tu cefn sydd yn awr;
O fy mlaen nid oes i'm golwg
  Ond cyffiniau'r
      eilfyd mawr.

Gwyn eu byd fy hen gyfeillion
  Aeth o'm blaen i'r porthladd draw;
Ar eu hol hwy dros y tonau
  Moriaf finau maes o law:
Clywaf lais yn galw arnaf
  Bydd yn barod, fe ddaw'r wŷs,
Mae'r priodfab bron a dyfod,
  Bydd yn barod, bydd ar frys.

The river of life conveyed away
  Brothers of mine more than number;
After them I too shall go
  Unenduring with the flow;
The things of earth, the turns of time,
  Behind me are now;
Before me is nothing to my view
  But the borders of the
      great second world.

Blessed are my old friends
  Who went before me to yonder haven;
After them across the waves
  I too shall sail soon:
I heave a voice calling on me
  Be ready, the summons comes,
The bridegroom has almost come,
  Be ready, be in a hurry.
