Cerdd Dant, Cainc by Gwyrfai (Menai Williams), arrangement Rhian Jones, words Robin Llwyd ab Owain.

Words

Anterth yw Mawrth y Cyntaf,
Anterth y goelcerth a gaed;
Dy fflam sy’n dal i lamu’n
Dân gwyllt o fewn ein gwaed.
Gwnewch y pethau bychain
Oedd d’eiriau di o hyd;
Mae’r heddwch yng Nghymru heddiw
yn darian fechan i fyd.

Yr Iesu o Lyn Rhosyn
Fu’n arwain d’adain di,
Tyrd atom fel colomen
Yn awr i’n harwain ni;
Gwnewch y pethau bychain
Oedd d’eiriau di o hyd,
Mae’r heddwch yng Nghymru heddiw
Yn darian fechan i fyd.

Oherwydd iti garu’r tir
hwn o dan ein traed,
Mae’r iaith a Chymru heddiw’n dân gwyllt o fewn ein gwaed.
Gwnewch y pethau bychain
Oedd d’eiriau di o hyd;
Mae’r heddwch yng Nghymru heddiw
Yn darian fechan i fyd.

Translation

March the First is the height,
The height of the beacon that there was;
Your flame that still leaps
as wild fire within our blood.
“Do the little things”
Was always your saying
The peace in Wales today
is a small shield to the world.

Jesus of Llyn Rhosyn
Your wings will be the leader
Come to us like a dove
Now to lead us;
Do the little things
Was always your saying,
The peace in Wales today
is a small shield to the world.

Because you loved this
land under our feet,
The language and Wales today is a wild fire in our blood.
Do the little things
Was always your saying;
The peace in Wales today
is a small shield to the world.
