Name: Wrth Fynd Efo Deio y Dywyn/An Culyek Hos
Duration: P00H03M31S
Description: This song in Welsh is an enthusiastic young traveler's diary, cataloging his experiences with one Deio, friend of Mr. Jones, en route to the town of Tywyn in Gwynedd, Wales. We combine it with a Cornish tune that reflects Breton origins. Not content with a single time signature, we play the above first as hornpipes then as jigs.

lyrics

Mi dderbyniais bwt o lythyr
Ffa-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Oddi wrth Misdar Jones o'r Brithdir,
Ffa-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ac yn hwnnw ‘roedd o'n gofyn,
Ffa-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Awn i efo Deio ‘i Dywyn
Ffa-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la-la.

Fe gychwynnwyd ar nos Wener,
Dod i Fawddwy erbyn swper.
Fe gawd yno uwd a menyn,
Wrth fynd efo Deio i Dywyn.

Dod ywmlaen ac heibio'r Ddinas,
Bara chaws a chwrw ‘Ngwanas;
Drwy Dalyllyn yr aem ni'n llinyn
Wrth fynd efo Deio i Dywyn.

Dod drwy Aberygynolwyn
Wedin haibio'r Graig y Deryn:
Pan gyrhaedd'som Ynys Maengwyn.
Gwaeddai Deio, ‘Dacw Dywyn!

Os bydda'i byw un flwyddyn eto
Mynna'n helaeth iawn gynilo,-
Mi ga'i bleser anghyffredin
Wrth fynd efo Deio i Dywyn.
