  Down   
 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.   an honest heart, a pure heart.
  Down   
 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.   Sing in the day and sing in the night.
  Down   
 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.   Will bear eternal profit.
  Down   
 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.   Sing in the day and sing in the night.
  Down   
 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.   o give me a pure heart.
  Down   
 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.   Sing in the day and sing in the night.
  Down   
 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.   Sing in the day and sing in the night.
