Nid oes, heb ollwng
gwaed yn lli,
Faddeuant i bechadur;
Ni faddeu Duw ein
bai heb hyn,
Nis gall, ni fyn ei natur.
Ond wele'i Fab ar bren y groes,
Yn dyoddef loes marwolaeth,
I agor ffordd maddeuant llawn
Trwy waed ei
Iawn ehelaeth.
Yn nghanol ei arteithiau dwys
Dan eithaf pwys ein beiau,
O clywch E'n erfyn ar ei Dad
Yn ngrym ei gariad faddeu.
Cyn rhoddi fyny'r yspryd pur
Dan bwys ei gur angeuol,
Mae'n dadleu drosom yn ei loes,
Ac ar y groes yn eiriol.
O! boed y gras oedd yn ei fron,
Yn llenwi'm calon inau
At fy ngelynion yn ddigoll,
I'w cara oll a maddeu.
Pa fwyaf gawn o wres y dydd,
Mwy yno fydd ein moliant;
Cawn, yn lle'n cystudd
byr, a'n crwys,
Dragwyddol bwys gogoniant.
Pryd hyn pereiddia Duw o'r bron,
Holl chwerwon ddyfroedd Mara;
Pryd hyn y try pob chwerw nant,
Yn win i blant Jehofah.

Tôn [MS 8787]: Arenig (Breigel 1626-1723) gwelir: B'le tro' fy wyneb Arglwydd cu Os yw 'ngofiediau yn y byd |
There is not, without the shedding
of blood as a flood,
Any forgiveness for a sinner;
God will not forgive our
fault without this,
His nature cannot, nor will it.
But see his Son on the wood of the cross,
Suffering the throes of death,
To open a way of full forgiveness
Through the blood of his
plenteous Ransom.
In the midst of his intense tortures
Under the extreme weight of our faults,
O hear ye Him in beseeching his Father
In the force of his love to forgive.
Before giving up his pure spirit
Under the weight of his fatal stroke,
He is pleading for us in his anguish,
And on the cross interceding.
O may his grace, that was in his breast, be
Filling my own heart
Towards my enemies unfailingly,
To love them all and forgive.
The more we get of the heat of the day,
The greater our praise shall be there;
We shall get, instead of our short
affliction, and our cross,
An eternal weight of glory.
Then shall God sweeten completely,
All the bitter waters of Mara;
Then every bitter stream shall turn
Into wine for the children of Jehovah.
tr. 2017 Richard B Gillion
