The Ash Grove (Llwyn On) (Traditional) Performer(s): Sarah Brightman
Yn Nyffryn Llwyn Onn draw mi welais hardd feinwen A minnau'n hamddena 'rol byw ar y don Gwyn ewyn y lli oedd ei gwisg, a disgleirwen A'r glasfor oedd llygaid Gwen harddaf Llwyn Onn A ninnau'n rhodiana drwy'r lonydd i'r banna Sibrydem i'n gilydd gyfrinach byd serch A phan ddaeth hi'n adeg ffarwelio a'r wiwdeg Roedd tannau fy nghalon yng ngofal y ferch
[Down yonder green valley where streamlets meander When twighlight is fading I pensively rove Or at the bright moontide in solitude wander Amid the dark shades of the lonely Ash Grove 'Twas there, while the blackbird was cheerfully singing I first met that dear one the joy of my heart! Around us for gladness the bluebells were ringing Ah! then little thought I how soon we should part] Cyn dychwel i borthladd wynebwn y tonnau Ond hyfryd yw'r hafan 'rol dicter y don Bydd melys anghofio her greulon y creigiau Un felly o'wn innau 'rol cyrraedd Llwyn Onn A thawel mordwyo wnaf mwyach a Gwenno Yn llong fach ein bwthyn a hi wrth y llyw A hon fydd yr hafan ddiogel a chryno I'r morwr a'i Wenno tra byddwn ni byw
(Still glows the bright sunshine o'er valley and mountain Still warbles the blackbird its note from the tree Still trembles the moonbeam on streamlet and fountain But what are the beauties of Nature to me? With sorrow, deep sorrow, my bosom is laden All day I go mourning in search of my love! Ye echoes! oh tell me, where is the sweet maiden? "She sleeps 'neath the green turf down by the Ash Grove")
