Moliannwn (pronounced "Molly-ann-oon") is welsh for "Let's rejoice"
or "Let's give praise" and is a celebration of the end of Winter and
the beginning of Spring. The song itself was written by a welsh slate
miner (who is now buried in Vermont) called Benjamin Thomas but he set
the words to a traditional American tune called "The Old Cabin Home".
Probably worth listening to first if you're unfamiliar with it as I
may not have it perfectly tabbed. (I recommend listening to Gwyneth
Glyn singing it at href="http://www.ghazalaw.com/">www.ghazalaw.com).
A key of C should be fine but I love the tune on my Ab
harmonica.
