Cymraeg Down English
 
  Nid wy'n gofyn bywyd moethus,   I don't ask for a luxurious life,
  Aur y byd na'i berlau mān:   the world's gold or its fine pearls,
  Gofyn wyf am galon hapus,   I ask for a happy heart,
  Calon onest, calon lān. Down an honest heart, a pure heart.
     
  Calon lān yn llawn daioni,   A pure heart full of goodness
  Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:    Is fairer than the pretty lily,
  Dim ond calon lān all ganu    None but a pure heart can sing,
  Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos. Down  Sing in the day and sing in the night.
   
  Pe dymunwn olud bydol,   If I wished for worldly treasures
  Chwim adenydd iddo sydd:   On swift wings they fly away:
  Golud calon lān, rinweddol,   The riches of a virtuous, pure heart
  Yn dwyn bythol elw fydd. Down Will bear eternal profit.
   
  Calon lān yn llawn daioni,   A pure heart full of goodness
  Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:    Is fairer than the pretty lily,
  Dim ond calon lān all ganu    None but a pure heart can sing,
  Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos. Down  Sing in the day and sing in the night.
     
  Hwyr a bore fy nymuniad   Evening and morning, my wish
  Gwyd i'r nef ar adain cān   Rising to heaven on the wing of song
  Ar i Dduw, er mwyn fy Ngheidwad,   For God, for the sake of my Saviour,
  Roddi i mi galon lān. Down To give me a pure heart.
   
  Calon lān yn llawn daioni,   A pure heart full of goodness
  Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:    Is fairer than the pretty lily,
  Dim ond calon lān all ganu    None but a pure heart can sing,
  Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos. Down  Sing in the day and sing in the night.
