Crist a gÃḃr Ãḃ'r cariad puraf

Crist a gÃḃr Ãḃ'r cariad puraf -
  CÃḃr cywir yw,
Uwchlaw brawd a'r chwaer anwylaf -
  CÃḃr cywir yw;
Cyfaill yw mewn cyfyngderau,
Cyfaill yw yn caru maddau,
Gydag Ef nid ofnaf angau -
  CÃḃr cywir yw.

Cyfaill yw i bechaduriaid -
  CÃḃr cywir yw;
Ef yw gwrthrych hoff fy enaid -
  CÃḃr cywir yw;
Gall cyfeillion byd gyfnewid,
Gan roi imi boen a gofid;
Y mae Crist yn ddigyfnewid -
  CÃḃr cywir yw.
John Jones (Tegid) 1792-1852

TÃṀn [8484.8884]: Wynnstay (J Ambrose Lloyd 1815-74)

Christ loves with the purest love -
  True love he is,
Above a brother and the dearest sister -
  True love he is;
A friend he is in straits,
A friend he is loving to forgive,
With him I shall not fear death -
  True love he is.

A friend he is to sinners -
  True love he is;
He is the fond object of my soul -
  True love he is;
The world's friends can change,
Giving me pain and grief;
Christ is unchangeable -
  True love he is.
tr. 2021 Richard B Gillion
