Dal dy ddwr mae'r ffôn yn canu
Hold your waters, the phone is ringing
Adlewyrchu gofod fagddu
Reflecting a dark vacuum
Yma yw lle dewisom ni
This is the location that we chose
I gael plannu gwreiddiau dwfn
To plant the deepest root
Ac yma yw'r lle ble mae'r gwaed yn drwm
And this is the location with the heaviest blood
Wrthi'n bygwth ein boddi
Which threatens to drown us
Dyma'n safle
Here's our position
Ni ddaw mwy o gyd ddigwyddiadau pryferth
No more serendipity will come our way
A dyma fy rhif
And this is my number
Ymlith yr holl ystadegau di galon
Amongst all the other numbers and heartless statistics
Dal dy ddwr mae'r ffôn yn canu
Hold your waters, the phone is ringing
Adlewyrchu gofod fagddu
Reflecting a dark vacuum
Yma yw lle dewisom ni
This is the location that we chose
I gael plannu gwreiddiau dwfn
To plant the deepest root
Ac yma yw'r lle ble mae'r gwaed yn drwm
And this is the location with the heaviest blood
Wrthi'n bygwth ein boddi
Which threatens to drown us (X3)
Quote (Gruff on mwng.co.uk):
"It's about being rooted to a sad piece of land. I'm not making it sound very glamorous. It's a song about being doomed to live somewhere and that's all you have and that's what you're stuck with. It's as bleak as I can go lyrically. I suppose everyone feels that bleak occasionally, but it’s so bleak its comic almost. I wept it rather than sung it. It's the longest song we've ever recorded. It's a song in two parts and the second part is an instrumental called Mawrth Oer Ar Y Blaned Neifion, which translates as A Cold Mars On Neptune, and it's trying to go intergalactic at the end of the song and look down on the land we've just sung about. It's an instrumental with brass and stylophone."
