Wrth gofio weithiau'r ochor hyn
Rinweddau aberth
pen y bryn,
Rwyf yn anghofio cystudd f'oes,
Gan orfoleddu yn Ei groes.
Mae arnaf hiraeth weithiau'n awr
Am fod ymhlith y dyrfa fawr,
I roddi'r goron gyda hwy
Ar ben yn Oen
gâdd farwol glwy'.
O! ddedwydd ddydd! - pan ddelo'n lân
Y teulu adref, fawr a mân, -
Hen un yn ol,
y cloff na'r gwan,
Yn moli Duw a'u dug i'r làn: -
Byth, byth ni raid ymadael mwy,
Nac ofni gelyn roi im' glwy':
Caf weld yr Oen
heb rhyngom len,
A rhoddi'r goron ar Ei ben.
Thomas Phillips 1772-1842
Tôn [MH 8888]: |
On remembering sometimes on this side
The virtues of the sacrifice
of the top of the hill,
I am forgetting the affliction of my age,
While rejoicing in His cross.
I have a longing sometimes now
To be amongst the great throng,
To put the crown with them
On the head of the Lamb
who got a mortal wound.
O happy day! - when the family shall
Completely come home, great and small, -
Without any left behind,
the lame or the weak,
Praising God who brought them up: -
Never, ever need to leave any more,
Nor fear an enemy's giving me a wound:
I will get to see the Lamb
with no curtain between us,
And put the crown on His head.
tr. 2017 Richard B Gillion
