Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mâd,
Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.
Hen Gymru fynyddig, paradwys y bardd,
Pob dyffryn, pob clogwyn, i'm golwg sydd hardd;
Trwy deimlad gwladgarol, mor swynol yw si
Ei nentydd, afonydd, i mi.

The history of Wales is very interesting, and at
times even obscure. The Celts occupied the
area from the left by the original population of
giant megalithic structures. I to V century AD,
the area of ​Wales was under occupation by the
Romans. Later, he was plagued by raids of
Jutes, Angles and Saxons. However, despite
this, Wales has managed to retain their
individuality.
