Paragraph from:
In Wales, the Daffodil is a symbol of The Patron Saint,
David (Welsh: Dewi Sant), and of rebirth and faithfulness,
because they bloom every year,
even after the harshest Winters.

“Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau”
is the Welsh National Anthem.

The tune and words were the work of
the father and son team of Evan James (1809 - 1878)
and James James (1833 - 1902).

Cymraeg:

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion enwogion o fri
Ei gwrol ryfelwr, gwlad garwyr tra mad
Tros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.

Gwlad Gwlad,
Pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad,
Tra mor yn fur i'r bur hoff bau
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau


English:

Land of my Fathers, O land of the free,
A land of poets and minstrels, famed men.
Her brave warriors, patriots much blessed,
It was for freedom that they lost their blood.

Wales ! Wales !,
I am devoted to my Country.
So long as the sea is a wall to this fair beautiful land,
May the ancient language remain.

Saint David's Day is on 1 March. He brought Christianity to Wales in the 6th-Century A.D. Saint David (Dewi Sant) is The Patron Saint of Wales and 1 March is The Welsh National Day. This is an edited version of 'Songs of Praise' 24/02/2013. The final song is sung by Rhys Meirion, in Welsh, accompanied by a Traditional Welsh Harp. The Welsh name for the City of Saint David is Tyddewi.
