Hir oes iddynt a llon'd ty o blant yw fy nymuniad i
Bu Daniel yn hwylio am flynyddau'n ddib'le
Ar gefn môr cariad heb wybod i b'le
Gan chwilio am eneth - un hardd, deg ei llun
Yn gymwys ymgeledd rhag bod wrtho ei hun,
Ond cwmpawd ei gariad a bwyntiodd yn hollol
At fynwes Ann Evans fel seren ogleddol.
