Mae'r ddaear a'i llawnder
i ddarfod o'r bron
Gwae rhai f'o a'i calon,
yn glynu wrth hon;
O Arglwydd rho gymmorth
i'th bobl i gyd
'Rhoi'u trysor i gadw
ym mhell uwchlaw'r byd.
Pan elo'r byd yma
yn wenfflam i gyd,
Bydd llawer yn wylo,
waith arno rhoi'u bryd:
Ond moliant 'r Iesu,
pan elo 'fe ar dân
Bydd rhai y pryd hynny
yn uchel eu cân.
John Evans, Argoed.Diferion y Cyssegr 1802 Tôn [11.11.11.11]: Joanna (Sacred Music 1801/2) |
The earth and its fulness is
about to disappear
Woe to those whose hearts
stick to this;
O Lord give help
to all thy people
To put their treasure to be kept
far above the world.
When this world goes
all to flames,
There shall be many weeping,
no good it is to set their mind on it:
But the praise of Jesus,
when it goes on fire
Shall then be of some
their loud song.
tr. 2018 Richard B Gillion
