Is being sung loud and proud at Swans games these days.
Beautiful. |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Singing this, in a pub full of Welsh, is spine tingling.
Quite superb. |
It’s in the key of Am. And yeah. I can play and sing it well. |  |

I would like to see a little Welsh flag on Swansea shirts or shorts if allowed by EFL regulations. They had one in Martinez times I recall. |
We should just do it.
Great idea mate.
Roberto loved it. |  |

Yma O Hyd
(Dafydd Iwan - Cyhoeddiadau Sain)
1. Dwyt ti'n cofio Macsen, does neb yn ei nabod o;
Mae mil a chwe chant o flynyddoedd yn amser rhy hir i'r co';
Pan aeth Magnus Maximus o Gymru yn y flwyddyn tri-chant-wyth-tri,
A'n gadael yn genedl gyfan, a heddiw: wele ni!
Cytgan : Ry'n ni yma o hyd, ry'n ni yma o hyd,
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth, er gwaetha pawb a phopeth,
Ry'n ni yma o hyd.
2. Chwythed y gwynt o'r Dwyrain, rhued y storm o'r môr,
Hollted y mellt yr wybren a gwaedded y daran encôr,
Llifed dagrau'r gwangalon a llyfed y taeog y llawr,
Er dued yw'r fagddu o'n cwmpas ry'n ni'n barod am doriad y wawr!
(Cytgan)
3, Cofiwn i Facsen Wledig adael ein gwlad yn un darn
A bloeddiwn gerbron y gwledydd, "Mi fyddwn yma tan Ddydd y Farn!"
Er gwaetha pob Dic Sion Dafydd, er gwaetha 'rhen Fagi a'i chriw,
Byddwn yma hyd ddiwedd amser, a bydd yr iaith Gymraeg yn fyw!
(Cytgan) |
Thought this went down exceptionally well and the fans really embraced it, also thought the anthem was also belted out with much gusto and passion. I was at the game so can’t say how well they came across on TV, but think they’d have been ok. | | | |

They are very powerful lyrics and stir up a feeling of pride and patriotism. I’d get Dafydd Iwan there for all the games. | | | |

Wanted to give Kieffer Moore a quick mention. He was walking to the game on a Thursday night with a a very attractive looking young lady who I assumed was his partner. While I got the impression she wanted to go in to the stadium, he was brilliant, he was great with the kids, really approachable, happy to pose for pictures and signed autographs. Seemed like a down to earth tidy guy. | | | |

Yes - We even had a dragon on the front then, with S.C.F.C. underneath it.
Early/mid 1970s.
Although i am now thinking that must have been a fans shirt, not a first team shirt.
We cant really have had a dragon instead of a swan, can we ? 🤣

Always sung by Wales fans in pubs before and after games. As Fireboy says, it gets to you. | |

I missed the beginning as was dining missus in Harrogate.
I’ve since seen and heard it.
Profoundly moving
I’ve added it to my set list. It’s great tune for piano. Simple as simple can be .

I was there on Thursday and Dafydd Iwan and the crowd were awesome - it was very moving. Just watched it again and it brought a tear to my eye and sent a shiver down my spine. It should be sung 15 minutes before every home game! | | | |

The song is moving, even ore so when sung by thousands. Shame it's more nationalistic claptrap.
Macsen Wledig didn't leave Wales, he left Britannia, Wales didn't exist as a country back then.
Magnus Maximus was of Spanish heritage and he was a ruler imposed on Britannia by our then Roman masters. Is that where Wales is at, any old overlord as long as it's not the English?
Kilky is always criticising others for living in the past but this song harks back to 388AD.

OHL - glad you have noticed the sea change mate.
The whole of Cymru has changed in the last 20 years of devolution.
Pensioners maybe still of a BBC royalist mindset.
But … and its a fecking big but …. The young people are proudly confident of their nation, their culture, and their languages.
They are done with getting pushed around by Westmonster.

You can interpret it as nationalistic if you like, that's up to you. To me it simply celebrates the frankly astonishing and impressive fact that Wales / Cymru / Cambria / part of Britannia and it's language still exist as an entity after centuries despite repeated attempts to eradicate cymraeg and the 'nation' as well as a lot of immigration. It is a very poignant song. You don't need to be separatist to see this. Just someone open to acknowledging historical facts.
You must also remember that the Romans never really fully conquered the area that we know as modern day Wales, although the Romans activities in the rest of modern day Britain did unwittingly lead to the creation of the geographical area that we now know as Wales by pushing the native Celts to the Western fringes of the islands.
The Romans in Wales did intermarry with the local Welsh so when the Roman 'machine' / administration left to go back to mainland Britain around AD400, the power vacuum was filled by these Roman-Welsh families, some of whom had lineage which predated the Roman invasions. So I'd say it's far more nuanced than you suggest.
Not sure who has mentioned the English but you?
The song harks back to those times because that's where Wales was essentially born and is above, we should celebrate the fact that it still exists as an entity today. It's something to be proud of. |  |

Wales as a political entity is a model for the planet. From Kurds In Turkiye, Iraq and Syria to the Russians in the Donbass and Crimea , Kosovo, the Abkasians and South Ossettians in Georgia and many other statelets around the place.
There is no reason these people cannot live in peace and harmony within a bigger Union if tolerance and respect is shown. Even Spain and France are concerning themselves with how to adapt to their Basques Bretons and Catalonian aspirations.
Sadly our great days in the EU are over where Scottish aspirations were satisfied at least for 50 years or more.

Its a celebration of never ending resilience, resistance, and hope.
The exact opposite of the fake triumphalism of Empire. | |

Ireland is the model.
Freed of repression and abuse of the old Empire, the Irish nation has flourished in Europe as a small western democracy.
The freedom to achieve freedom. | |

I go my own way,as you know.
I have nothing against Welsh nationalism but just feel its 100 too late as then we had real clout as an industrial country together with a rural network that could have fed us.
Dummies can think what they like but I remain pretty proud Welshman although I do not consider Wales nirvana.Frankly,I wouldnt want that anyway. | |
