Pob natur doed
â'i holl bwerau 'nawr,
I ddatgan clod i Dduw,
'r Creadwr mawr;
Yr awyr clir,
a'r cyfan dan y rhod,
Y môr a'r tir rho'ent
eu rhyglyddawl glod.
Dechreued sain
seraphiaid yn y nef
Ddadseinio'n llu,
gerbron ei orsedd Ef;
Cyweiriant eu telynau
oll yn yn,
I ganu clod i'r
Duwdod yn y dyn.
Doed mawr a bach,
o îs a gwaelach ryw,
Rhoent glod a mawl
i ganmawl enw Duw;
Dewn ninau'i gyd,
o eitha'r byd heb wâd,
I'w foli'n faith
am iachawdwriaeth rad.
Ei fywyd glân, ei chwys,
a'i riddfan ro'es,
A'i angeu'n llawn,
dâl cyflawn ar y groes;
Daw ffrwyth ei groes,
a grym eiriolaeth gref,
A'r eiddil gwan
yn gadarn gydag ef.
Jehofah yw,
yn un â'i enw pur,
Cyflawnder gwiw
ei addewidion gwir;
Mae'n codi'i law,
cenhedloedd doent o'u bodd,
Nodedig brawf o'i ras,
anfeidrol rodd.
Cenhadon hedd
mewn efengylaid iaith,
Sy'n galw i'r wledd,
dros fôr yr India faith;
Caiff Hotentots,
Coraniaid dua'u lliw,
Farbariaid lu,
eu dwyn yn deulu Duw.

Let the whole of nature bring
all its powers now,
To declare praise to God,
the great Creator;
The clear sky,
and the whole under the vault,
Let the sea and the land give
their eloquent praise.
Let the sound of seraphim
begin in heaven
Resounding as a host,
before His throne;
They tune their harps
all as one,
To sing acclaim to the
Godhead in the man.
Let great and small come,
of a lowly and poorer sort,
Let them render acclaim and praise
to extol the name of God;
Let us too all come, from the world's
extremities without exception,
To praise his widely
for free salvation.
His pure life, his sweat,
and his groaning he gave,
And his death fully,
pays completely on the cross;
Let the fruit of his cross come, with
the force of strong intercession,
And the feeble weak
firmly with him.
Jehovah he is,
as one with his pure name,
The worthy fullness
of his true promises;
He is raising his hand,
let generations come voluntarily,
A notable experience of his grace,
an immeasurable gift.
Emissaries of peace
in gospel language,
Are calling to the feast,
across the sea of vast India;
Hottentots, Coranians
of blackest colour,
A host of barbarians, shall get
brought as the family of God.
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion
