Pryderus wyf o awr i awr
Yn nyfnder nos
y cystudd mawr;
Ond mae fy ngobaith ynot Ti,
O! dirion Iesu, arwain fi.
Er dal yn gyndyn ac yn ffôl,
A phleser gau yn tynnu'n ôl,
O wagedd byd
a'i holl ystaen,
O! dirion Iesu, dwg fi 'mlaen.
Mae hiraeth ar fy nghalon friw
Am hyfryd wleddoedd
cariad Duw;
Yng ngwlad y newyn, dan fy mhla,
O! dirion Iesu, trugarha.
O! plyg fi'n isel wrth dy draid
Nes profi rhin
haeddiannau'r gwaed;
I dŷ fy Nhad,
trwy dân a lli,
O! dirion Iesu, arwain fi.
Evan Rees (Dyfed) 1850-1923
Tôn [MH 8888]: |
Worried I am from hour to hour
In the depth of the night
of the great tribulation;
But my hope is in Thee,
O tender Jesus, lead me!
Although stubborn and foolish,
With vain pleasure pulling back,
From the emptiness of the world
and all its tin,
O tender Jesus, draw me onwards!
There is longing on my bruised heart
For the delightful feasts
of the love of God;
In the land of hunger, under my plague,
O tender Jesus, have mercy!
O bow me low at thy feet
Until I experience the virtue
of the merits of the blood;
To my Father's house,
through fire and flood,
O tender Jesus, lead me!
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion
