Mawredd cariad Duw at ddynion!
Syndod yw i luoedd ne'!
Hwn sy'n ennyn tân seraphaidd
Trwy holl gyrau'r
dedwydd le:
Sylwi arno wna i Gabriel
Hwylio tannau'r delyn aur,
A moliannu heb ddiffygio
Am rinweddau'r dwyfol Air.
O ddyfnderoedd annhraethadwy,
Hyd a lled, ac uchder maith,
Cariad dwyfol at droseddwr
Gwael ei lun, a dryg ei waith!
Sain taranau mynydd Sinai
Weithiodd yn fy enaid fraw,
Yn ei gariad fe'i gostegwyd,
Gwela'r mellt yn cilio draw.
Och! arswyddus sain yr udgorn
Wrth roi deddf i ddynol ryw,
"Lladd troseddwr," yw'r cynhoeddiad,
"Nid oes modd i'r euog fyw!"
Ond yn nghariad prynedigol
Trodd yr udgorn garw'i lais,
Gan gyhoeddi Jubil' nefol
I'r annheilwng yn barhaus.
Casgliad Joseph Harris 1845
(Cariad Duw) Rhyfedd gariad Duw at ddynion! Syndod yw i luoedd ne'! Hwn sy'n enyn tân seraphaidd Trwy holl gyrau'r dedwydd le: Golwg arno wna i Gabriel Hwylio tanau'r delyn fawr: O! cydseiniwn ninau'r anthem, Anthem cariad ar y llawr.Llawlyfr Moliant 1890
Tonau [8787D]: gwelir: Dyma'r fan dysgleiria cariad |
The majesty of God's love to men!
A surprise it is to the hosts of heaven!
He who is igniting seraphic fire
Throughout all the corners of the
happy place:
Noticing him makes Gabriel
Tune the strings of the golden harp,
And praise without failing
About the merits of the divine Word.
O inexpressible depths,
Length and breadth, and vast height,
Of the love of God towards a transgressor
Poor his image, and evil his work!
The sound of the thunders of mount Sinai
Worked in my soul terror,
In his love he calmed it,
See the lightning retreating yonder!
Oh, the terrible sound of the trumpet
While giving the decree to human kind,
"Slay the transgressor," is the announcement,
"There is no way of the guilty to live!"
But in redeeming love
The trumpet turns into a rough voice,
Announcing a heavenly Jubilee
For the unworthy enduringly.
(The Love of God)
The wonderful love of God towards men!
A surprise it is for the hosts of heaven!
He who is igniting seraphic fire
Throughout all the corners of the
happy place:
A look upon him makes Gabriel
Tune the strings of the great harp:
O let us also sound together the anthem,
The anthem of love on the earth.
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion
