All Through The Night Sleep, my child, and peace attend thee All through the night Guardian angels God will send thee All through the night Soft the drowsy hours are creeping Hill and dale in slumber steeping I my loving vigil keeping All through the night. While the moon her watch is keeping All through the night While the weary world is sleeping All through the night O'er thy spirit gently stealing Visions of delight revealing Breathes a pure and holy feeling All through the night.

	Ar Hyd Y Nos Holl amrantau'r sêr ddywedant Ar hyd y nos 'Dyma'r ffordd i fro gogoniant Ar hyd y nos. Golau arall yw tywyllwch I arddangos gwir brydferthwch Teulu'r nefoedd mewn tawelwch Ar hyd y nos. O mor siriol gwen a seren Ar hyd y nos I oleuo-i chwaer ddae ar en Ar hyd y nos. Nos yw henaint pan ddaw cystudd Ond i harddu dyn a'i hwyr dydd Rhown ein goleu gwan i'n gilydd Ar hyd y nos.

The usual English versions bear little resemblance to the Welsh. Here's my try at an approximate translation (and which fits the tune):

Twinkling stars all tell the story
All through the night:
Here's the way to land of glory
All through the night.
Just like darkness other light is,
To display their beauteous brightness
Heaven's family rests in quietness
All through the night.

Oh how bright the star is shining
All through the night,
Earthly sister to illumine
All through the night.
Though with age comes tribulation,
To adorn man at his evening
Cast we pale illumination
All through the night.
