Mor dywyll ydyw'r nos!
Mor ddu a llawn o fraw!
Er hyn i gyd
ni ofnaf dim -
Mae Iesu mwyn gerllaw.
Yng nghanol fflamau'r mellt,
A sŵn taranau braw,
Nid ofnaf ddim,
er gwanned wyf -
Mae'r Iesu mwyn gerllaw.
A phan bydd angeu cryf
Yn rhoddi arna'i law,
Mi af drwy'r glyn
heb ofni dim -
Mae'r Iesu mwyn gerllaw.
William Nicholas 1844-85
Tonau [MB 6686]: |
How dark is the night!
How black and full of alarm!
Despite all this
I shall not fear anything -
The gentle Jesus is at hand.
In the centre of the flames of lightening,
And the sound of alarming thunder,
I shall not fear anything,
although I be so weak -
The gentle Jesus is at hand.
And when strong death shall come
Placing on me its hand,
I shall go through the valley
without fearing anything -
The gentle Jesus is at hand.
tr. 2011 Richard B Gillion
