WELSH FOLK SINGER
Can o Fawl i'r Cwrw / A Song of Praise for the Beer
Alaw & Geiriau / Melody & Words - GBRh
Ma ‘ngwddw fel rhisgil ‘lly tapiwch y faril
Gollyngwch yn rhugl i’r ‘ogyn gal peint
Ma’r ddiod aur-felyn, y moddion dan ewyn
Â’r rhinwedd i leddfu pob syched a haint,
Ei flas sydd yn felys wrth ‘lychu fy ngwefus
A ‘hogla yr hopys a’r barlys mor braf
‘Lly llenwch ‘y ngwydrad i’r ‘ogyn gal llyma’d
A molwn ddyfodiad y gwanwyn a’r haf.
My throat is like bark so tap the barrel
And release it freely so that this son can have a pint
This golden-yellow drink, this medicine beneath froth
Has the quality to ease all thirstiness and weaknesses
It’s taste is sweet when it wet’s my lips
And the smell of the hops and barley is so lovely
So fill up my glass so this lad can have a tipple
And Let’s praise the coming of spring and summer
