Line 35:

Hyfrydol has a [[metre (hymn)|metre]] of 8.7.8.7.D (alternating lines of eight and seven syllables, usually in [[trochee|trochaic feet]], other examples of which include [[Blaenwern]] and [[Abbots Leigh]]<ref>{{cite web |title=87.87.D.

The best-known arrangement is probably that by [[Ralph Vaughan Williams]], which he originally produced for his revision of the ''[[English Hymnal]]''; Vaughan Williams also composed some variations on this theme and it plays an important role as the third of his Prelude on Three Welsh Hymn Tunes (~~1955~~1920) for brass band.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Prelude On Three Welsh Hymns - Salvation Army Music Index|url=https://samusicindex.com/brass/prelude-on-three-welsh-hymns/223|access-date=2021-06-13|website=samusicindex.com}}</ref>

In addition to its use as a hymn tune, Hyfrydol has been arranged for [[brass band]]s and other instrumental groups.
