Another brief trip to Wales, something I wish were able to do more here on SOTI, so tell your Welsh singer friends to upload more videos!
I first heard this song from the singing of the American quartet Navan, who perform their own vocal arrangements of traditional songs from Anglo-Celtic cultures. This version by Eve Goodman is gorgeous in its simplicity. The song features a response using the Welsh lilt.
Dacw ‘Nghariad
Dacw ‘nghariad i lawr yn y berllan,
Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al.
O na bawn i yno fy hunan,
Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al.
Dacw’r ty, a dacw’r ‘sgubor;
Dacw ddrws y beudy’n agor.
Ffaldi radl idl al, ffaldi radl idl al,
Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al.
