Fel y cuddia'r llwyni gleision

Fel y cuddia'r llwyni gleision
Ddolennog grwydiad Cynon,
  Dymunwn innau lechu'r ferch
  Enynnodd serch fy nghalon.

Hen Bennill   |  An Old Verse

As the green groves hide
The looping wandering of the Cynon,
  So would I wish to shelter the girl
  Who won the affection of my heart.

tr. 2020 Richard B Gillion
