Lyrics:

Huna blentyn ar fy mynwes
Clyd a chynnes ydyw hon;
Breichiau mam sy'n dynn amdanat,
Cariad mam sy dan fy mron;
Ni cha' dim amharu'th gyntun,
Ni wna undyn â thi gam;
Huna'n dawel, annwyl blentyn,
Huna'n fwyn ar fron dy fam.

Huna'n dawel, heno, huna,
Huna'n fwyn, y tlws ei lun;
Pam yr wyt yn awr yn gwenu,
Gwenu'n dirion yn dy hun?
Ai angylion fry sy'n gwenu,
Arnat ti yn gwenu'n llon,
Tithau'n gwenu'n ôl dan huno,
Huno'n dawel ar fy mron?

Paid ag ofni, dim ond deilen
Gura, gura ar y ddôr;
Paid ag ofni, ton fach unig
Sua, sua ar lan y môr;
Huna blentyn, nid oes yma
Ddim i roddi iti fraw;
Gwena'n dawel yn fy mynwes
Ar yr engyl gwynion draw.

I was thrown off by some of the pronunciations in the video, had thought it was supposed to be something like:

Heena blentuhn ar fuh muhnoo-es
Cleed a shuhnnes eeduh-oo hon
Brayshee-eye mam suh’n dan fuh mron
Caree-eyed mam suh dan fuh mron
Nee sha’ deem amharee’th guhnteen
Nee oona uhnduhn ah thee gam
Heena’n dowel, annoo-uhl blentuhn
Heena’n foo-uhn ar fron duh fam.
