Mae'r enw Myfanwy yn dod o'r gair Annwyl. Cyfansoddwyd y gân yn 1875 gan Joseph Parry (alaw) a Richard Davies (geiriau) a’r gân hon yw You've Lost That Loving Feeling y byd Cymraeg. Mae'r geiriau yn ffurfiol iawn ac yn anodd i ddysgwyr eu deall, ond mae'r cyfieithiad yn glir iawn.Dyma hoff gân corau led led Cymru, a chaeth ei chyflwyno yn y nofel How Green Was My Valley a ffilmiau Hedd Wyn a Twin Town.

The name Myfanwy comes from the word Beloved/Darling. The song was composed in 1875 by Joseph Parry (tune) and Richard Davies (words) and is the You've Lost That Loving Feeling of the Welsh world. The words are very formal and difficult for learners to understand, but the translation is very clear. It is a favourite song of choirs across the country and has been featured in the the book How Green Was My Valley and films Hedd Wyn and Twin Town.

Paham mae dicter, O Myfanwy, Yn llenwi'th lygaid duon di? A'th ruddiau tirion, O Myfanwy, Heb wrido wrth fy ngweled i? Pa le mae'r wên oedd ar dy wefus Fu'n cynnau 'nghariad ffyddlon ffôl? Pa le mae sain dy eiriau melys, Fu'n denu'n nghalon ar dy ôl?	Why so the anger, Oh Myfanwy, That fill your dark eyes Your gentle cheeks, Oh Myfanwy, No longer blush beholding me? Where now the smile upon your lips That lit my foolish faithful love? Where now the sound of your sweet words, That drew my heart to follow you?
Pa beth a wneuthum, O Myfanwy I haeddu gwg dy ddwyrudd hardd? Ai chwarae oeddit, O Myfanwy Â thanau euraidd serch dy fardd? Wyt eiddo im drwy gywir amod Ai gormod cadw'th air i mi? Ni cheisiaf fyth mo'th law, Myfanwy, Heb gael dy galon gyda hi.	What was it that I did, Oh Myfanwy, To deserve the frown of your beautiful cheeks? Was it a game for you, Oh Myfanwy, This poet's golden flame of love? You belong to me, through true promise, Too much to keep your word to me? I'l never seek your hand, Myfanwy, Unless I have your heart with it.
Myfanwy boed yr holl o'th fywyd Dan heulwen ddisglair canol dydd. A boed i rosyn gwridog iechyd I ddawnsio ganmlwydd ar dy rudd. Anghofia'r oll o'th addewidion A wneist i rywun, 'ngeneth ddel, A dyro'th law, Myfanwy dirion I ddim ond dweud y gair "Ffarwél".	Myfanwy, may your life entirely be Beneath the midday sun's bright glow, And may a blushing rose of health Dance on your cheek a hundred years. I forget all your words of promise You made to someone, my pretty girl So give me your hand, my sweet Myfanwy, For no more but to say "farewell".

Sosban Fach: Geiriau Cân / Lyrics

Neil Rowlands — Thu, 05 Oct 2017 16:50:36 +0000

Sosban Fach yw un o’r caneuon gwerin Cymraeg mwyaf poblogaidd ac adnabyddus. Mae'n cael ei chanu gan gefnogwyr timau rygbi Llanelli a’r Sgarlets.

Sosbon Fach (Little Saucepan) is one of the most popular and recogniseable folk songs from Wales. In particular, it is sung by supporters of the Llanelli and Scarlets rugby teams.

Mae bys Meri-Ann wedi brifo, A Dafydd y gwas ddim yn iach. Mae'r baban yn y crud yn crio, A'r gath wedi sgrapo Joni bach. Sosban fach yn berwi ar y tân, Sosban fawr yn berwi ar y llawr, A'r gath wedi sgrapo Joni bach.	Mary-Ann has hurt her finger, And David the servant is not well. The baby in the cradle is crying, And the cat has scratched little Johnny. A little saucepan is boiling on the fire, A big saucepan is boiling on the floor, And the cat has scratched little Johnny.
Cytgan: Dai bach y sowldiwr, Dai bach y sowldiwr, Dai bach y sowldiwr, A chwt ei grys e mas.	Chorus: Little Dai the soldier, Little Dai the soldier, Little Dai the soldier, And his shirt tail is hanging out.
Mae bys Meri-Ann wedi gwella, A Dafydd y gwas yn ei fedd; Mae'r baban yn y crud wedi tyfu, A'r gath wedi huno mewn hedd. Sosban fach yn berwi ar y tân Sosban fawr yn berwi ar y llawr A'r gath wedi huno mewn hedd.	Mary-Ann's finger has got better, And David the servant is in his grave; The baby in the cradle has grown up, And the cat is "asleep in peace". A little saucepan is boiling on the fire, A big saucepan is boiling on the floor, And the cat is "asleep in peace".
Aeth hen Fari Jones i Ffair y Caerau I brynu set o lestri de; Ond mynd i'r ffos aeth Mari gyda'i llestri Trwy yfed gormod lawer iawn o "de" Sosban fach yn berwi ar y tân Sosban fawr yn berwi ar y llawr A'r gath wedi huno mewn hedd.	Old Mary Jones went to the fair in Caerau, To buy a tea set; But Mary and her teacups ended up in a ditch, By drinking rather too much "tea". A little saucepan is boiling on the fire, A big saucepan is boiling on the floor, And the cat is "asleep in peace".

Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau: Geiriau Cân / Lyrics

Y gân enwocaf a mwyaf ysbrydoledig yw'r Anthem Genedlaethol. Mae'n cael ei chanu cyn gweithgareddau chwaraeon- mae'r holl dorf yn ymuno gyda'i gilydd i rannu eu llawenydd a’u balchder yn eu gwlad. Caeth ei hysgrifennu gan Evan James a'i fab James James o Bontypridd yn 1856.

The most famous and inspiring of Welsh songs is the National Anthem. Sung by Welsh teams before sporting events- the whole crowd joins together as one to share it's joy at being Welsh. It was written by Evan James and James James of Pontypridd in 1856.
Note that the original Welsh lyrics are written very concisely, and as a result translations into English do vary, don't rhyme and don't quite contain the power and passion of the original words. However, for Welsh learners, knowing the meaning and how the words are used in Welsh life allows for a greater understanding and meaning of the song than someone without that exposure to the language.

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi, Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri; Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad, Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.	The old land of my fathers is dear to me, Land of bards and singers, famous men of renown; Her brave warriors, very splendid patriots, For freedom they shed their blood.
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad. Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau, O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.	My country, my country, I am faithful to my country. While the sea is a wall to the pure, most loved land, O may the old language endure.

Calon Lân: Geiriau Cân / Lyrics

Neil Rowlands — Thu, 05 Oct 2017 05:04:34 +0000

Emyn Cymraeg a ysgrifennwyd yn y canrif 19^eg gyda geiriau gan Daniel James (Gwyrosydd) a thôn gan John Hughes yw Calon Lân.

Calon Lân is a Welsh hymn that was written in the 19^th century with words by Daniel James and tune by John Hughes.

Nid wy’n gofyn bywyd moethus, Aur y byd na’i berlau mân: Gofyn wyf am galon hapus, Calon onest, calon lân.	I don’t ask for a luxurious life, the world’s gold or its fine pearls: I ask for a happy heart, an honest heart, a pure heart.
Cytgan: Calon lân yn llawn daioni, Tecach yw na’r lili dlos: Dim ond calon lân all ganu- Canu’r dydd a chanu’r nos.	Chorus: A pure heart is full of goodness, More lovely than the pretty lily: Only a pure heart can sing – Sing day and night.
Pe dymunwn olud bydol, Hedyn buan ganddo sydd; Golud calon lân, rinweddol, Yn dwyn bythol elw fydd.	If I wished worldly wealth, He has a swift seed; The riches of a virtuous, pure heart, Will be a perpetual profit.
Hwyr a bore fy nymuniad Gwyd i’r nef ar edyn cân Ar i Dduw, er mwyn fy Ngheidwad, Roddi i mi galon lân.	Late and early, my wish Rise to heavan on the wing of song, To God, for the sake of my Saviour, Give me a pure heart.

Mark Stonelake: Dadansoddi'r gramadeg yn Calon Lân / Analysing the grammar in Calon Lân

Calon (b) heart

Geiriau / ymadroddion defnyddiol wedi'u selio ar 'calon'
Diolch o galon     thank you very much
Codi calon           to cheer up
Digalon                downhearted/depressed

Glân 'clean', ond hefyd, 'pure/holy', e.e. Yr Ysbryd Glân – The Holy Spirit

Gair benywaidd yw 'calon'. Mae'r ansoddair ‘glân’ sy'n disgrifio 'calon' yn treiglo'n feddal – calon lân.

* Bydd ansoddeiriau sy'n disgrifio enwau benywaidd unigol yn treiglo'n feddal, fel mewn yr esiampl uchod. Ond, fydd ansoddeiriau sy'n disgrifio enwau benywaidd lluosog ddim yn treiglo'n feddal., e.e:

pure heart     calon lân
pure hearts   calonnau glân
a leafy tree     coeden ddeiliog
leafy trees      coed deiliog

* Bydd enwau benywaidd unigol yn treiglo'n feddal ar ôl y fannod ('the'). Fydd enwau benywaidd lluosog ddim yn treiglo'n feddal ar ôl y fannod, e.e:

Calon (b)       y galon (the heart)
Y calonnau    (the hearts)
Coeden (b)    y goeden (the tree)
Y coed            (the trees)

* Fydd enwau benywaidd unigol sy'n dechrau gyda 'rh / ll' ddim yn treiglo'n feddal ar ôl y fannod ('the'), e.e:

llinell (b) y llinell
line                the line
rhaw (b)       y rhaw
shovel          the shovel

Calon (b) heart

useful words/phrases based on calon:
Diolch o galon thank you very much
Codi calon to cheer up
Digalon downhearted/depressed

Glân clean, but also pure/holy, e.g. Yr Ysbryd Glân - The Holy Spirit

Calon is a feminine noun. The adjective that is used to describe it ‘glân’ takes a soft mutation - calon lân.

*Adjectives that describe feminine singular nouns take a soft mutation, as the example above. Plurals of feminine words do not take a soft mutation, e.g:

pure heart                    calon lân
pure hearts                 calonnau glân
a leafy tree                  coeden ddeiliog
leafy trees                   coed deiliog

*Feminine singular nouns take a soft mutation after ‘the’. Plural nouns do not. e.g:
Calon (b)          y galon (the heart)
Y calonnau      (the hearts)
Coeden (b)       y goeden (the tree)
Y coed             (the trees)

* Feminine singular nouns that begin with the letters ‘ll’ and ‘rh’ do not take a soft mutation after ‘the’. e.g:
llinell (b) y llinell
line the line
rhaw (b) y rhaw
shovel the shovel

Nid wy’n gofyn
Mae llawer o ffurviau gwahanol i berson cyntaf unigol y ferf 'bod' yn yr amser presennol yn Saesneg, e.e., 'I am/I am not/don’t'. Yr un peth sy'n wir yn Gymraeg hefyd. Mewn iaith lyneddol, bydd tuedd i hepgor y rhagenwau personol, sef ‘i,/fi, ti, e/fe, hi', ac ati. Dyma enghriafft o'r gân:

Nid wy’n gofyn < Nid wyf i’n gofyn. Mae'r rhannau sy wedi'u tanllinellu, wedi'u dileu. Sylwch y bydd y sain 'f' ar ddiwedd geiriau yn cael ei hepgor yn aml. Ar lafar bob dydd, bydden ni'n dweud:

Dw i ddim yn gofyn or Sa i’n gofyn… I am not asking…

Yma rydyn ni wedi defnyddio ‘ddim’ yn lle'r ffurf lenyddol ‘nid’.

gofyn wyf 'asking I am…'

wyf < yr wyf yn < rwy’n < wy’n

Dyma ffurf arall ar y person cyntaf unigol yn yr amser presennol 'bod', sef, 'I am', yn llawn – '(Yr) wyf (i)'.

Dyma restr lawn o'r ffurfiau i gyd sydd ar gael i olygu'r person cyntaf unigol yn amser presennol y ferf 'bod' - sef, 'I am'. Rydyn ni'n dangos y ffurf hiraf yn gyntaf (hynny yw, y ffurf fwyaf llenyddol, sy'n cael ei hysgrifennu gan amlaf), ac wedyn y ffurfiau byrraf (y rhai y bydd pobl yn eu defnyddio ar lafar gan amlaf). Rydyn ni wedi defnyddio'r ffurfiau hyn ar 'bod' gyda'r berfenw 'gofyn ('to ask'). Sylwch fod sillaf neu sain yn cael ei hepgor bob tro. Pob un o'r ffurfiau hyn sy'n golygu 'I ask / I am asking':

yr ydwyf (i)

Ffurfiau llythennol:

Yr ydwyf (i) yn gofyn    yr wyf (i) yn gofyn
Rydwyf (i) yn gofyn    rwyf yn gofyn
Rydw i’n gofyn           rwy’n gofyn

Ffurfiau ar lafar:
Dw i’n gofyn (North Wales)
W i’n gofyn (South Wales) wy’n gofyn (South Wales)

Ynganiad:
(ween govin) (oo-een govin)

Nid wy'n gofyn
There is a lot of variety in the use of the first person present tense, i.e. I am/I am not/don’t. The tendency in the literary form is to leave out the personal pronouns, such as ‘i,/fi, ti, e/fe, hi, etc. There is an example of this in the song:

Nid wy'n gofyn < Nid wyf i’n gofyn. The parts highlighted have been ommitted. ‘f’ at the end of words is often left out. In everyday speech this would be:

Dw i ddim yn gofyn or Sa i’n gofyn… I am not asking…

ddim is used rather than the literary form, nid.

gofyn wyf asking I am…

wyf < yr wyf yn < rwy’n < wy’n

Another version of the 1^st person present tense, i.e. I am. In full - (Yr) wyf (i).

Here is a list of all the possible forms of the 1^st person of the verb ‘to be’ - I am, from the longest (most literary/written) form to the shortest forms(most used in speech), with the verb ‘gofyn’ - to ask. A letter or syllable is dropped at each stage. All have the meaning I ask/I am asking:

yr ydwyf (i)

Literary:

Yr ydwyf (i) yn gofyn yr wyf (i) yn gofyn
Rydwyf (i) yn gofyn rwyf yn gofyn
Rydw i’n gofyn rwy’n gofyn

Speech
Dw i’n gofyn (North Wales)
W i’n gofyn (South Wales) wy’n gofyn (South Wales)

Pronounced:
(ween govin) (oo-een govin)

Daioni da+ioni goodness

Tecach yw na… fairer is than…

Byddwch ni'n ychwanegu'r terfyniad -ach at ansoddeiriau byr i ffurfio'r radd gymharol, e.e:

tal >   talach
tall     taller
tew > tewach
fat    fatter

Pan fyddwch chi'n ychwanegu -ach at ansoddeiriau sy'n terfynu mewn b d g, bydd y saeiniau hyn yn caledu (bydd y newid hwn yn 'dadwneud treiglad meddal', fel petai). e.e:

gwlyb > gwlypach b > p
wet > wetter

drud > drutach d > t
expensive > expensiver (lit.)

teg > tecach g > c
fair > fairer

Daioni da+ioni goodness

Tecach yw na… fairer is than…

The ending -ach may be added to short adjectives to make the comparative, e.g:
tal        > talach
tall taller
tew      >          tewach
fat fatter

When -ach is added to adjectives ending in b, d and g, the sound hardens. It is like the reverse of a soft mutation, e.g:

gwlyb              >          gwlypach   b > p
wet                  > wetter

drud                 >          drutach d > t
expensive >   expensiver (lit.)

teg                   >          tecach g > c
fair                   > fairer

Y lili dlos the fair/pretty lily

Ffurf fenywaidd ar tlws (pert yn Gymraeg, pretty yn Saesneg), yw tlos. Mae tlos yn treiglo'n feddal i roi dlos gan ei fod wastad yn dilyn gair benywaidd, e.e lili (b) > lili dlos. Dyma enghraifft arall:

gwyrdd – green (m)
gwerdd – green (f)
Plaid (b) Y Blaid Werdd The Green Party

Ddim yn aml o gwbl y bydd pobl yn defnyddio ffurfiau benywaidd ansoddeiriau fel 'tlos' (uchod) ar lafar. Ond, byddwn ni'n eu clywed rywbryd mewn ymadroddion wedi'u ffosileiddio, cerddi a chaneuon.

Hefyd, byddwn ni'n clywed lluosog ansoddeiriau mewn ymadroddion wedi'u ffosileiddio, e.e:

Mwyar duon (black berries) (Lit. blacks berries)
Y crysau cochion (the red shirts) (Lit. the reds shirts, i.e. Wales)

Y lili dlos the fair/pretty lily

tlos is the feminine form of ‘tlws’ - pert - pretty. ‘Tlos’ is mutated to ‘dlos’ because it always follows a feminine noun, e.g. ‘lili (b) - lili dlos. Another example:
gwyrdd - green (m)
gwerdd - green (f)
Plaid (b) Y Blaid Werdd The Green Party

Feminine forms of adjectives like the one above are very rarely used in everyday speech, but they are sometimes heard in fossilised phrases, poems and songs.

Some plural adjectives are heard in fossilised phrases, e.g:
Mwyar duon (black berries) (Lit. blacks berries)
Y crysau cochion (the red shirts)(Lit. the reds shirts, i.e. Wales)

Dim ond calon lân all ganu

(It’s) only a pure heart (which) can sing Dim ond calon lân (a) all ganu

Mae'r geiryn a wedi'i ddilyn gan dreiglad meddal yn golygu'r un peth â 'sy' ('who is / who are' yn yr amser presennol). Fodd bynnag, byddwn ni'n defnyddio 'a' guda berfau cryno (lle byddwn ni'n ychwanegu terfyniad at fôn y berf).

Yn aml, bydd y geiryn 'a' yn cael ei hepgor ar lafar, ac mae'n cael ei hepgor yn y gân hefyd.

Gall trydydd person unigol y ferf 'gallu' yn yr amser presennol / dyfodol – is able to/can

A all 'which can..' Sylwch fod y geiryn a yn achosi treiglad meddal

Dim ond calon lân all ganu

(It’s) only a pure heart (which) can sing Dim ond calon lân (a) all ganu

a followed by a soft mutation is the equivalent of ‘sy’ (who is/are which is/are, used in the present tense), but is used with short form verbs (verbs with an ending added).

It is often omitted in speech, as it is in the song.

Gall Third person present/future of the verb ‘gallu’ - is able to/can

A all which can.. ‘a’ causes a soft mutation.

Ar Hyd Y Nos: Geiriau Cân / Lyrics

Neil Rowlands — Wed, 04 Oct 2017 21:23:56 +0000

Cân werin boblogaidd iawn yw Ar Hyd y Nos, sy'n cael ei chanu i hen alaw a gofnodwyd am y tro cyntaf yn y gyfrol The Musical and Poetical Relics of the Welsh Bards (1784) gan Edward Jones (Bardd y Brenin). Ysgrifennodd John Ceiriog Hughes y geiriau Cymraeg.

Ar Hyd Y Nos is a very popular folk song, which was sung to an old tune that was recorded for the first time in the Musical Relics Of The Welsh Bards (1784) by Edward Jones. John Ceiriog Hughes wrote the Welsh lyrics.

Holl amrantau'r sêr ddywedant, Ar hyd y nos, 'Dyma'r ffordd i fro gogoniant, Ar hyd y nos. Golau arall yw tywyllwch, I arddangos gwir brydferthwch Teulu'r nefoedd mewn tawelwch, Ar hyd y nos.	All the star's eyelids say, All through the night, "This is the way to the valley of glory," All through the night. Any other light is darkness, To exhibit true beauty, The Heavenly family in peace, All through the night.
O mor siriol gwena seren, Ar hyd y nos, I oleuo'i chwaer ddaearen, Ar hyd y nos. Nos yw henaint pan ddaw cystudd, Ond i harddu dyn a'i hwyr dydd, Rhown ein goleu gwan i'n gilydd, Ar hyd y nos.	O how cheerful smiles the star, All through the night, To light its earthly sister, All through the night. Old age is night when affliction comes, But to beautify man in his late days, We'll put our weak light together, All through the night.

Ar Lan Y Môr: Geiriau Cân / Lyrics

Neil Rowlands — Wed, 04 Oct 2017 21:09:15 +0000

Mae'r cân hon yw'r tiwn tradoddiad sydd yn disgrifio ble mae'r ffynhonnell o gariad am y cwpl hwn- lawr ar lan y môr.

This song is a traditional tune that describes where the source of love is for this couple- down by the seaside.

Ar lan y môr mae rhosys cochion Ar lan y môr mae lilis gwynion Ar lan y môr mae 'nghariad inne Yn cysgu'r nos a chodi'r bore.	Down by the sea red roses are blooming; Down by the sea white lilies are gleaming; Down by the sea my true love is dwelling, Sleeping all night, rising up in the morning
Ar lan y môr mae carreg wastad Lle bûm yn siarad gair â'm cariad O amgylch hon fe dyf y lili Ac ambell gangen o rosmari.	Down where the sea laps at the flat rock My love and I did wander and talk; All around us grew the white lily, And there were sprigs of rosemary.
Ar lan y môr mae cerrig gleision Ar lan y môr mae blodau'r meibion Ar lan y môr mae pob rinweddau Ar lan y môr mae nghariad innau.	By the seaside are blue stones By the seaside are the sons’ flowers By the seaside is every virtue By the seaside is my sweetheart.
