Mae'r pomgranadau pur,
A'r peraroglau rhad,
Yn magu hiraeth cryf
Am hyfryd dŷ fy nhad:
O Salem bur! O Sîon wiw!
Fy nghartref i, a chartre'm Duw.
'Does le i aros dim,
Mi glywaf lais y nef
'Nawr yn fy ngalw 'mlaen
Yn fuan ato Ef:
Ffarwel, ffarwel
ddeniadau'r byd,
Methodd eich tegwch fyn'd a'm bryd.
William Williams 1717-91
Tôn [666688]: Gwladus (alaw Gymreig) gwelir: Mi bellach goda' maes |
The pure pomegranates, and
The free aromas, are
Fostering a strong longing
For the delightful house of my Father:
O pure Salem! O worthy Zion!
My home, and the home of my God.
There is nowhere to wait at all,
I hear the voice of heaven
Now calling me on
Soon to him:
Farewell, farewell to you,
the world's attractions,
Your fairness failed to take my mind.
tr. 2021 Richard B Gillion
