Mae gen i dŷ cysurus A melin newydd sbon A thair o wartheg brithion Yn pori ar y fron Weli di, weli di, Mari fach Weli di, Mari annwyl Mae gen i drol a cheffyl A merlyn bychan twt A deg o ddefaid tewion A mochyn yn y cwt Mae gen i gwpwrdd cornel Yn llawn o lestri te A dresel yn y gegin A phopeth yn ei le Mae gen i ebol melyn Yn codi'n bedair oed A phedair pedol arian O dan ei pedwar troed. Mi neidith a mi brancith O dan y feinir wen, Mi redith ugain milltir Heb dynnu'r ffrwyn o'i ben. Mae gen i iār a cheiliog, A buwch a mochyn tew A rhwng y wraig a minnau, Wy'n ei gwneud hi yn o lew' Fe aeth yr iār i rodio, I Arfon draw mewn dig A daeth yn ōl un diwrnod Ā'r Wyddfa yn ei phig.John Jones (Talhaiarn) 1810-69 Lewis Jones (Rhuddenfab) 1835-1915

I have a cosy house And a brand new mill And three dewy cows Grazing on the hillside. See, see, little Mari, See, dear Mari. I have a cart and a horse And a neat little pony And ten fat sheep And a pig in the pen I have a corner cupboard And a full tea service A dresser in the kitchen And everything in its place I have a sallow colt Coming up to four years old With four silver horseshoes Under his four feet. He leaps and he prances Beneath the maiden fair, He runs for twenty miles Without pulling the bridle from his head. I have a hen and cock A cow and a fat pig And between the wife and me We do pretty well The hen went wandering Irate to yonder Arfon And came back one day With Snowdon in its beaktr: 2008 Richard B Gillion |
