Wele'n dyfod ar y cwmwl
Yn ei fawredd, Frenin nef;
Heirdd gerubiaid a seraffiaid
Fyrdd o gylch ei orsedd Ef:
Sŵn yr udgorn,
Egyr gedyrn byrth y bedd.
Mil o filoedd, myrdd myrddiynau,
O gwmpeini hardd eu gwedd,
Welir draw yn codi fyny
I'w gyfarfod Ef o'r bedd:
Dyma'r bore,
Gwelir Seion oll yn rhydd.
1: Hymnau (Wesleyaidd) 18442: William Williams 1717-91
Tonau [878748]: gwelir: :Nid oes yno gofio beiau |
See, coming on the cloud
In his greatness, the King of heaven;
Splendid cherubim and seraphim
A myriad around His throne:
The sound of the trumpet,
Opens the strong portals of the grave.
A thousand thousands, a myriad myriads,
Of a company of beautiful countenance.
To be seen yonder rising up
To meet Him from the grave:
Here is the morning,
Zion to be seen all free.
tr. 2009,16 Richard B Gillion

Lo! He comes on clouds of glory,
Circled by an angel-throng
Who proclaim His lofty titles
With their trumpets, loud and long.
Hallelujah,
Welcome, welcome, Son of Man!
Thousand thousands, myriad myriads
Bright attendants on the Lord,
See I rising from corruption,
At the mighty signal-word:
Farewell, sadness,
Full redemption now is come.
tr. 1854 Joseph Morris
