Boed fy mywyd oll yn ddiolch,
Dim ond diolch yw fy lle;
Ni wna gwaredigaeth ragor
I greadur îs y ne':
Gallu'r nefoedd
Oedd a'm daliodd i i'r làn.
Ar y dibyn bûm yn chwareu,
'Lawr fe aethai'm henaid gwàn,
Nid oedd bosibl imi g'odi
Byth o'r dyfnder hwnw i'r làn:
Iesu, Iesu,
Ti sy'n trefnu'r oll Dy Hun.
Rhaid oedd bod rhagluniaeth ddistaw,
Rhaid oedd bod
rhyw arfaeth gref,
Yn fy rhwymo, heb im' wybod,
Wrth golofnau pur y nef:
O Ragluniaeth!
Ti sy'n trefnu'r ddaear faith.
Rhyfedd, Arglwydd, yw'th ddoethineb,
Rhyfedd, Arglwydd, yw Dy rym;
Nid oes îs y nef lïosog
All Dy wrthwynebu ddim:
Try'r greadigaeth,
Ôl a gwrthol, wrth Dy air.
D'air sy'n gwneyd y byw yn farw,
Eilwaith gwneyd y marw'n fyw;
D'air a greodd, ac sy'n cynnal,
Y greadigaeth o bob rhyw;
Ti Dy Hunan
Ydyw bywyd maith y byd.
O! darfydded i mi garu
Unrhyw bleser îs y ne',
A darfydded im' fyfyrio
Ar un gwrthddrych yn dy le:
Aed fy ysbryd, &c,
Oll yn awr yn eiddo i Ti.
William Williams 1717-91
Tonau [878747]:
gwelir: |
Let my life be all thanks,
Nothing but thanks is my place;
Deliverance does not do any more
For a creature under heaven:
The might of heaven
It was that held me up.
On the slope I was playing,
Down would go my weak soul,
It was not possible for me to rise
Ever up from that depth:
Jesus, Jesus,
It is thou who art arranging all Thyself.
It was necessary for providence to be silent,
It was necessary that there was
some strong plan,
Binding me, without my knowing,
To the pure pillars of heaven:
O Providence!
It is Thou who art arranging the vast earth.
Wonderful, Lord, is thy wisdom,
Wonderful, Lord, is Thy force;
There is nothing under the numerous heaven
That can oppose Thee at all:
The creation will turn,
Back and forth, at Thy word.
It is Thy word which makes the living dead,
Again makes the dead alive;
It is Thy word which made, and which upholds,
The creation of every kind;
Thou Thyself
Art the vast life of the world.
O may I cease to love
Any pleasure under heaven,
And may I cease to contemplate
Any object in thy place:
May my spirit become
Altogether thine own possession.
tr. 2015,23 Richard B Gillion
