THE MARI LWYD

The opening stanza to the traditional Mari Lwyd song, as sung by Heb Enw Morris:

Wel dyma ni’n diwad Gyfeillion diniwed I ofyn cawn gennad I ofyn cawn gennad I ofyn cawn gennad I ganu.

This translates as: Well here we come Innocent friends To ask for permission To ask for permission To ask for permission to sing.
