Amlygodd Crist
hoff rym ei ras,
Pan sangodd deyrnas angeu;
I lawr fe sathrai'r gelyn sur,
Gan ddryllio'i fur yn foreu.
Agorodd ffordd
o eigion bedd
I ddinas hedd oddiyno;
Am hyn diolchaf i fy Naf,
Os nerth a gaf i'w gofio.
efel. Cas. o dros 2000 o Hymnau (S Roberts) 1841
[Mesur: MS 8787] gwelir: Wel dyma'r dydd ni fyddaf drīst |
Christ made evident
the lovely force of his grace,
When he trampled the kingdom of death;
Down he trod the bitter enemy,
Smashing its wall in the morning.
He opened the way
from the depth of a grave
To the city of peace from there;
Therefore I shall thank my Leader,
If I have strength to remember him.
tr. 2023 Richard B Gillion

This is the day
when Christ arose,
So early from the dead;
Why should I keep my eye-lids closed,
And waste my hours in bed?
This is the day
when Jesus broke
The pow'r of death and hell;
And shall I still wear Satan's yoke,
And love my sins so well?
