Si-so gorniog / Horned see-saw
Cerddoriaeth a geiriau / Music and lyrics – Tradd. / Trad.
Trefn. / Arr. – GBRh, GM, PR

Si-so, gorniog, ennill tair ceiniog -
Ceiniog i mi a cheiniog i ti
A cheiniog i Twm am fenthyg y lli'.

Si so, gorniog, hela tair sgwarnog;
Deunaw i mi a deunaw i ti
A deunaw i Siôn am fenthyg y ci.
 
Llifio llifio ceiniog y dydd
gwneud hen goffin i Huwcyn y crydd
a Siencyn o´r inn a´i fola fo’n dynn,
os na chaiff o gwrw ni weithith o ddim

Wil go´ gaseg -
methu siarad Saesneg -
´´yes´´ a ´´no´´, a dyna fo
wel dyna ‘chi Saesneg Wil y go

Si So ben-jeri-do
cysgu heddiw ´rol meddwi ddoe
Sioni mashîn a´i fys yn ei din
yn chwarae y ffidil a´r tamborîn

Horned see-saw, earning three pence -
a penny for you and a penny for me
and a penny for Twm for lending the saw

Horned see saw, hunting three hares,
eighteen for you and eighteen for me
and eighteen for Siôn for lending the dog

sawing sawing, a penny a day
making an old coffin for little Huw the cobbler
and Siencyn from the inn and his belly tight,
if he doesn´t get some beer he won´t work at all

Will the farrier
can´t speak English
´´yes´´ and ´´no´´, and that´s it,
well, that´s the English of Will the farrier

See-saw, ben-jerry-doh
sleeping today after drinking yesterday -
Jonny Machine with his finger up his arse
playing the fiddle and the tambourine
