Duw, dyro i'm dy siriol wedd,
Tra byddwyf 'r ochr hyn i'r bedd,
Rho nerth bob awr
o'r dydd a'r nos,
I lynu wrth Crist a'i waedlyd groes.
Tyn fi fy Nuw, greadur ffôl
Ac wedi'n rhedaf ar dy ôl,
A dof i'th foli'n
iach fy ngwedd,
Pan yr agorir
pyrth y bedd.
John Davies (Siôn Gymro) 1804-84
[Mesur: MHD 8888D] |
God, grant me thy cheerful countenance,
While I am this side of the grave,
Give strength every hour
of the day and of the night,
To stick to Christ and his bloody cross.
Draw me my God, a foolish creature
And then I shall run after thee,
And I shall come to praise thee
in the health of my condition,
When to be opened are
the portals of the grave.
tr. 2015 Richard B Gillion
