Rwy'n caru merch o blwy' Penderyn ac yn ei chanlyn ers lawer dydd ni all'swn garu ag un ferch arall er pan gwelais r'un gron ei grudd Mae hi'n ddigon hawdd ei gweled er nad yw ond dyrnaid fach; pan elo draw i rhodio'r caeau fy nghalon claf hi wna yn iach.
I love a maid who's from Penderrin, been courting of her these many days; I'd hardly fancy to love another, not since I saw her winsome face. I take such delight to see her, though she's but a tiny thing; if she walks out across the meadow she makes my lovesick heart to sing. |
