|
Am y drwg tuag at Matholwch caeth Branwen ei chosbi
|
Branwen was punished for the wrong done to Matholwch
|
|
I weithio yn y gegin o fore tan nôs
|
To work in the kitchen from morning 'til night
|
|
Y cigydd mor greulon yn rhoi bonclust iddi beunydd
|
The butcher so cruel slapped her face every day
|
|
Ei ysbryd yn gadarn er gwaethaf ei phoen
|
But her spirit was strong in spite of her pain
|
|
|
|
|
Poenwyd Branwen am dair flynedd
|
For three years Branwen suffered
|
|
Cyn rhoi neges at ei brawd
|
Then
|
|
Hedfan wnaeth yr aderyn drudwen
|
Sending a message to her brother
|
|
Efo'r llythr yn canu ei chais
|
The Starling flew to tell of her plight
|
|
|
|

Chorus
:
|
|
Wedi clywed am gyflwr Branwen
|
Hearing of Branwen's shame
|
|
Penderfynwyd i'w gwaredi
|
He made up his mind to free her
|
|
Aeth ar unwaith i'r Iwerddon
|
With his men to Ireland
|
|
Dros y dwr efo'i ddynion
|
Across the water he went
|
|
Dial, rhiad 'nol Branwen o Ynys Matholwch
|
Revenge, Branwen must be saved from Matholwch's island
|
|
Dial, rhiad 'nol Branwen o afael ei gwr
|
Revenge, Branwen must be saved from her husband's arms
|
|
|
|
|
Y meichiaid yn gweithio ar ochr y môr
|
The swindherd's were working on the seashore
|
|
Yn gweld y rhyfeddod yn dyfod o'i blaen
|
Looking at the wonder in front of their eyes
|
|
Y mynydd yn cerdded yn araf tuag atynt
|
A mountain was walking slowly towards them
|
|
A 'r coed wrth wi ymyl yn dilyn yn ei draed
|
And the trees at its side followed behind
|
|
|
|
|
Bendigeidfran oedd y mynydd
|
Bendigeidfran was the mountain
|
|
Yn mynd yn dawel drwy y dwr
|
Walking silently towards the land
|
|
Yn tynnu coedwig o longau efo
|
Pulling a forest of ships behind him
|
|
Er mwyn achub Branwen wrth ei gwr
|
To save Branwen from this man
|
|
|
|
|
(Chorus 2x)
|
(Chorus 2x)
|
