I don’t think anyone posted this song by Adwaith yet, but I really love its clean, heartfelt simplicity. The best part is that I could understand fragments of it the first time I played it! I am not quite finished with Level 1 Challenge 4 yet, so that was really exciting!

classur! / classic!

Well, since this is a thing about Welsh music I think I should post this here. I’ve recently got myself a book Cân Di Bennill and for now I’m aimed to slowly go through the songs and search them on YouTube or SoundCloud in order to know how they’re sang. There are music sheets but I’m not good at reading them though. Well, I’ve got stucked at the very beginning already so I’m asking if someone else can find me a vocal version of “Ap Siencyn” song. Note that “David Ap Siencyn” isn’t the right one but all other I find are just instrumentals but what’s vital to me is how the words are sang.

If you can help I’d be grateful.

Diolch yn fawr.
Hwyl!

Adwaith is one of my favorite bands. They’ve got a great sound and I think they would play really well in the US. It’d be easier for them to come to the east coast than it would be for me to get my family to Wales.

I was able to get the lyrics to this song. I posted a question on Reddit and someone from Ochr1 copied my question to Adwaith’s Insta and they replied. Below are the lyrics and my translation.

Sai’n siwr fel i fod - I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be
Beth o ni moyn bod - what do we want to be
Yn y dyfodol - in the future

fy hun sydd ar top y list - Myself will be on top of the list
pethau nai byth ffeindio - of things that are never found
gobeithio bod pawb yn gwybod - hoping that everyone knows
sai’n siwr fel i fod - I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be

falle fi moyn mynd yn wyllt - Maybe I want to go wild
falle fi moyn mynd i gysgu - Maybe I want to go to sleep

At least fi’n gwybod bod s’dim byd yn becso - At least, I want to know that there’s nothing in worrying
pan fi nghanol sheets y gwely - when I’m in the middle of my bed.
at least fi’n gwybod bod y byd in troi - At least, I want to know that the world turns
gyda neu hebddo ti - with or without you
falle fi moyn mynd yn wyllt - Maybe I want to go wild
falle fi moyn mynd i gysgu - Maybe I to go to sleep

gobeithio bod fi’n dysgu - Hoping that I’m learning to
sgwennu caneuon - write songs that are
hapus yn lle trist - happy rather than sad
sai di dysgu’r sgil ma eto - Having to learn this skill again
mae fy nghalon yn rhedeg mas o glud - as my hearts runs out of glue
yn aros i fe torri a torri 'to - waiting for it to break and break again
falle fi moyn mynd yn wyllt - Maybe I want to go wild
falle fi moyn mynd i gysgu - Maybe I to go to sleep

At least fi’n gwybod bod s’dim byd yn becso - At least, I want to know that there’s nothing to worry
pan fi nghanol sheets y gwely - when I’m in the middle of my bed.
at least fi’n gwybod bod y byd in troi - At least, I know that the world turns
gyda neu hebddo ti - with or without you
falle fi moyn mynd yn wyllt - Maybe I want to go wild
falle fi moyn mynd i gysgu - Maybe I to go to sleep

Love this one, and I will love it even more when my Welsh grammar progresses to the conditional forms! :wink:
