Clywaf atsain cân y bore, Cerdda dros y ddaear ddu; Dacw wawr y nefol olau - Crist yn dyfod oddi fry; Aed breuddwydion, Cwsg, a syrthni oll o'n bron. Seren newydd a ddisgleiria, Tarfa bob afiachus wŷn; Oen tragwyddol a ddynesa I ddwyn traul dyledion dyn; Ceisiwn ninnau Bawb mewn dagrau ran o'i ras. Fel, pan ddelo yn y diwedd I amgylchu'r byd â braw, Na ddisgynno ei ddigllonedd Arnom ni sy dan ei law; Boed gogoniant Byth i'r Drindod ddiwahân. - - - - - Clywaf atsain cân y bore, Cerdda dros y ddaear ddu; Dacw wawr y nefol olau - Crist yn dyfod oddi fry; Aed breuddwydion, Cwsg, a syrthni oll o'n bron.

I hear resounding the song of the morning, It walks across the black earth; Yonder is the dawn of heavenly light - Christ coming from above; Let the dreams go, Sleep, and stupor all from our breast. A new star will shine, It will drive away every unhealthy grievance; The eternal Lamb will come near To bear the cost of man's debts; As for us, let us all Seek in tears a portion of his grace. Thus, when he comes in the end To surround the world with alarm, His disheartening will not descend Upon us who are under his hand; Let the glory be Forever to the indivisible Trinity. - - - - - I hear resounding the song of the morning, It walks across the black earth; Yonder is the dawn of heavenly light - Christ coming from above; Let the dreams go, Sleep, and stupor all from our breast. A new star will shine, From the face of the Lord Himself; Christ our Redeemer will come near To cancel man's debts; As for us, let us seek In our tears, a portion of his grace. Thus, when he comes in the end To surround the world with alarm, His disheartening will not descend Upon us who are under his hand; But we are got In peace in Him.tr. 2011 Richard B Gillion |
Hark, a herald voice is calling; "Christ is nigh," it seems to say; "Cast away the dreams of darkness, O ye children of the day." Startled at the solemn warning, Let the earth-bound soul arise; Christ, her Sun, all sloth dispelling, Shines upon the morning skies. Lo, the Lamb, so long expected, Comes with pardon down from heaven; Let us haste, with tears of sorrow, One and all to be forgiven. So when next He comes with glory, Wrapping all the earth in fear, May He then as our defender On the clouds of heaven appear. - - - - - Hark, a herald voice is calling; "Christ is nigh," it seems to say; "Cast away the dreams of darkness, O ye children of the day."
