Ffàrwel bellach hen bleserau,
Dwyllodd f'ysbryd fil o weithiau;
'N awr 'r wyf wedi canfod gwynfyd,
Nad oes ynddo radd o ofid.
Mi ges berl o'r gwerthfawroca',
Nef a daear byth nis prisia;
Crist yw 'nhrysor, -
dyna'i sylwedd,
Nef y nefoedd yn y diwedd.
Fe ddangosodd imi'n olau
Fod fy mhechod wedi'i faddau,
A bod imi nerth i goncro
Pob rhyw elyn sy'n fy mlino.
William Williams 1717-91
Tonau [88.88]: gwelir: Da na daear byth ni phrisia 'Nawr 'rwy'n gwel'd yr ardal hyfryd O am nerth i garu'r Iesu |
Farewell henceforth old pleasures,
That deceived my spirit a thousand times;
Now I have found the blessedness,
That there no degree of fear in.
I got the most precious pearl,
That heaven and earth can never value;
Christ is my treasure, -
that is its meaning,
The heaven of heavens in the end.
It showed to me clearly
That my sins have been forgiven,
And that I have strength to conquer
Every kind of enemy that is wearying me.
tr. 2018 Richard B Gillion
