Am bur efengyl hedd a gras,
O! gorfoledded daear lâs;
Yn hon mae cyfoeth
can' mil gwell
Nâ holl drysorau'r India bell.
Gair gweinidogaeth bywyd yw,
A'i nerth sy'n codi'r marw'n fyw;
O! caned daearodion byth
Am yr efengyl lân ddilyth.
Anadnabyddus | unknownLlawlyfr Moliant 1890 Tôn [MH]: Angel's Hymn (Orlando Gibbons 1583-1625) |
For the pure gospel of peace and grace,
O let the blue-green earth rejoice!
In this is wealth
a hundred thousand times better
Than all the treasures of distant Inda.
The word of the ministry of life it is,
And its strength raises the dead alive;
O let earthlings sing forever
About the gospel unfailingly.
tr. 2025 Richard B Gillion
