W: Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
W: Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;

W: Tros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.

W: Hen Gymru fynyddig, paradwys y bardd,
W: Pob dyffryn, pob clogwyn, i'm golwg sydd hardd;
W: Trwy deimlad gwladgarol, mor swynol yw si
W: Ei nentydd, afonydd, i mi.
W:
W: Os treisiodd y gelyn fy ngwlad dan ei droed,
W: Mae hen iaith y Cymry mor fyw ag erioed,
W: Ni luddiwyd yr awen gan erchyll law brad,
W: Na thelyn berseiniol fy ngwlad.

W: The national anthem of Wales:

W: Chorus:
W: Wales! Wales! fav'rite land of Wales!
W: While sea her wall,
W: may naught befall
W: To mar the old language of Wales.
W:
W: Old mountainous Cambria, the Eden of bards,
W: Each hill and each valley, excite my regards;
W: To the ears of her patriots how charming still seems
W: The music that flows in her streams.
W:
W: My country tho' crushed by a hostile array,
W: The language of Cambria lives out to this day;
W: The muse has eluded the traitors' foul knives,
W: The harp of my country survives.

W: La himno nacia de Kimrujo
W:
W: Kara al mi estas l' oldland' de l' prapatroj,
W: Fama pro iaj kantistoj kaj poetoj.
W: Patriotar' pro liberec', ili volis sin doni,
W: Mi volas Kimrion koni.
W:
W: Kimri'! Kimri'! Di', Kimrion amas mi,
W: Dum la maro estas irka la amata hejmlando,
W: Ho vivu la kimra lingvo!
