The Welsh
National Anthem
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra md,
Tros ryddid gollasant eu gwaed.
(Cytgan)
Gwlad, Gwlad, pleidiol wyfim gwlad.
Tra mr yn fur Ir bur hoff bau,
O bydded Ir hen iaith barhau.

Hen Gymru fynyddig, paradwys y bard,

Pob dyffryn, pob clogwyn Im golwg sydd hardd;
Trwy deimlad gwladgarol, mor swynol yw si
Ei nentyydd, afonydd I mi.
(Cytan)
Os treisiodd y gelyn fy ngwald tan ei droed,
Mae heniaith y Cymry mor fyw ac erioed,
Ni luddiwyd yr awen gan erchyll law brad,
Na thelyn berseiniol fy ngwlad.
(Cytgan)

English Translation
The land of my fathers is dear to me,
Old land where the minstrels are honoured and free;
Its warring defenders so gallant and brave,
For freedom their lifes blood they gave.
(Chorus)
Wales, Wales, true am I to Wales,
While seas secure the land so pure,
O may the old language endure.

Old land of the mountains, the Eden of bards,

Each gorge and each valley a loveliness guards;
Through love of my country, charmed voices will be
Its streams and its rivers, to me.
(Chorus)
Though foemen have trampled my land neath their feet,
The language of Cambria still knows no retreat;
The muse is not vanquished by traitors fell hand,
Nor silenced the harp of my land.
(Chorus)
