Lyrics in Welsh Tydi a roddaist liw i'r wawr A lliw i'r machlud mwyn, Tydi a luniaist gerdd a sawr A'r gwanwyn yn y llwyn, O cadw ni rhag colli'r hud Sydd heddiw'n crwydro drwy'r holl fyd.

Tydi a luniaist gân i'r nant A si i'r goedwig werdd, Tydi a roist i'r awel dant Ac i'r ehedydd gerdd, O cadw ni rhag dyfod dydd Na yrr ein calon gân yn rhydd.
