O arwain fi trwy'r anial le,
A thyn fi'n ebrwydd tua thre';
I weled gwedd
f'anwylyd gwiw,
Mor hoff ei lais,
mor hardd ei liw.
Mi dro fy nghefen cyn b'o hir,
Ar bob peth yn yr anial dir;
Cael Iesu'n ffrynd
fydd well pryd hyn,
Na holl drysorau bro a bryn.
Ei 'nabod Ef, fydd ddigon im',
Yn ngwyneb angau du a'i rym;
Cael golwg ar ei
siriol wedd,
A rydd im' gongcwest ar y bedd.
Caniadau Bethel (Cas. Evan Edwards) 1840
[Mesur: MH 8888] gwelir: Bum heddyw gyd a'th bobl gu |
O lead me through the desert place,
And draw me quickly towards home;
To see the countenance
of my worthy beloved,
So lovely his voice,
so beautiful his appearance.
I shall turn my back before long,
On every thing in the desert land;
To get Jesus as a friend
shall be better then,
Than all the treasures of vale and hill.
No know Him, shall be sufficient for me,
In the face of black death and its force;
To get a sight of his
cheerful countenance,
Shall give me victory over the grave.
tr. 2018 Richard B Gillion
