lyrics

Addwyn plwyf cymrwyf, Ddyf a'i towys
Arall addwyn, amser paradwys

Addwyn lloer, llewychawd yn elfydd
Arall addwyn pan da ddymgofydd

Addwyn haf araf hwyr hirddydd
Arall addwyn, a thriedd a gerydd

Addwyn blodeu ar warthaf perwydd
Arall addwyn, achre cerenhydd

Addwyn di dryf i ewig ac elein
Arall addwyn, cynawr am harwein

Addwyn lluarth, pan llwydd i genhin
Arall addwyn, cadafarth yn egin

Addwyn eddystr yng hebystr lledrin
Arall addwyn, cyweithas brenhin

Addwyn glew, nwy goleith gogyweg
Arall addwyn, i ellein gallineb

Addwyn grug pan fytho ehoeg
Arall addwyn, morfa i wartheg

Addwyn dymhor, pan dynn lloi laeth
Arall addwyn, enwyn maeronaeth

Ac yssydd i mi addwyn nid gwaeth,
Athal lawn full wrth dal meddweith

Addwyn i bysc y llyn y llywiawd
Arall addwyn, goralw gwaryhawd

Addwyn gair a lefeir y Drindawd
Arall addwyn, penyd i bechawd

Ys addwynhaf o bob addwyndawd
Caffel cerenhydd Dofydd ddyddbrawd

TRANSLATION
Delightful are the united people, God leading it
Delightful too the age of innocence.

Pleasant the moon that shines on earth
Pleasant too, when the good you recall.

Pleasant is summer, the lingering dusk of a long day
Pleasant too the communion thou lovest.

Beautiful are the flowers on the fruit trees,
and delightful the budding of friendship.

Pleasant is solitude to the roe and fawn
Pleasant too a huntsman to guide me.

Pleasant the garden when vegetables flourish
and sweet the charlock in young corn.

Pleasant the charger that is bridled
Pleasant too, the fellowship of a king.

Glorious the brave whom indecision will not destroy
Glorious, too, his splendid circumspection.

Pleasant the heath when it is green
Pleasant, too the meadows to the cows.

Pleasant the season when calves draw milk
Pleasant, too, the butter-milk of the dairy.

And what is to me no less pleasant,
the guerdon of a full horn beside the mead - vat.

Pleasant to the fish the water he steers in
Pleasant, too, to call decisive for the play.

Pleasant the message the Trinity delivers
Pleasant, too, (that there is ) penance for sin.

The pleasates of every pleasant thing
The assured friendship of the Lord at last.
