Iehovah yw,
yn un â'i enw pur,
Cyflawnder gwiw
ei addewidion gwir;
Mae'n codi ei law,
cenedloedd doent o'u bodd,
Nodedig brawf o'i ras,
anfeidrol rodd.
Cenhadon hedd,
mewn efengylaidd iaith,
Sy'n galw i'r wledd
dros fôr yr India faith;
Caiff Hottentots,
Coraniaid dua'u lliw,
Farbaraidd lu,
eu dwyn i deulu Duw.
Ann Griffiths 1776-1805
Tôn [10.10.10.10]: Upton (<1829) gwelir: Cenadon hedd mewn efengylaidd iaith Doed mawr a bach o îs a gwaelach ryw Gwna fi fel pren planedig O fy Nuw Pob natur doed â'i holl bwerau 'nawr |
Jehovah is,
the same as his pure name,
The worthy fullness
of his true promises;
He raises his hand,
let nations come voluntarily,
The notable test of his grace,
an immeasurable gift.
The emissaries of peace,
in a gospel language,
Are calling to the feast
over the sea vast India;
Hottentots, Coranians
of blackest colour, a barbarian
Host, shall be
brought to the family of God.
tr. 2024 Richard B Gillion
