Welsh National Anthem - Rugby Crowd Sing Millenium Stadium

[Paulol100]

Bravo Bravo.. Love it.

[wesmatron]

Always reminds me of the film 'Zulu'. Sends shivers.

[Laricee83]

I'm french and i love our 'marseillaise' but hearing 'land of my fathers' right before france-wales RWC semi-final made me shiver. This anthem is beautiful and so is the Welsh people... When we won I was both happy for France and sad for Wales (although I was rather happy, obviously)

[deval42]

Absolutely beautiful anthem, I get goosebumps every time I hear a Welsh crowd sing it!

[FionnMarr]

If there was a world cup for anthems then this would win every tournament. No other anthem in the world can move you to tears even though you're not from that country. Good luck against the French!

[16lydgate]

ONE NATION UNDER ONE VOICE!

[cliveandidan]

Land of my Fathers is the best anthem in the world,the best song sung at any sporting event in the world,but what really does it for me is the crowds singing they are ordinary people,but together their voices can move grown men to tears,wonderfull!!

[MrDaleplan]

if only they could scrummage

[grahamhorton1]

God I wish we had a national anthem like this. It must be the most moving anthem in the world. What do we have? We sing the praises of an old crone and the parasites that surround her.The Welsh, the Irish and the Scots sing about their land.When are we going to change the dirge that is "God save the Queen"

[chuffy35]

tidy boyo's

[TheFutureadvocate]

The worlds largest choir.Sounds great.

[seagerton]

this makes me cry ...amazing atmospere,the welsh fans are the best in the world..

[21mutz]

@seagerton i thought i was the only one that cryed lol

[seagerton]

i miss wales : (

[BillyHamilton]

Im 'yr Alban, ond i mi Anthem Genedlaethol Cymru yn gwialen haearn hangori wrth graidd y ddaear, ac a ddelir gan y ddeheulaw Duw.

[Obelisk1990]

@BillyHamilton crazy language that you speak dude, how difficult is it to pronounce? :o

[BigjockGnu]

I'm Scottish and this made me realize what a dreary dirge we have for a national anthem --- this gives me goose bumps.

[TheEarlos99]

That just made me cry, good memories upon hearing that on Rugby days, None more than versus our neighbours.

[oldfugnug]

This is stunning.

[dnyz123]

Respect from Ireland the welsh anthem when sung in the Millenium always sends shivers down the spine

[1504trevor]

The finest massed voice choir in the world,, and the BBC had to ruin it on Friday by concentrating on out of tune rugby players.

Well played England.

[sherp2u1]

It's a good song but a bit slow for an anthem to be honest, I tend to nod off during it!

[sherp2u1]

@ Beautiful it's never easy being English! 

[SuperPat1954]

My gran was Welsh bless her shes dead now but this still makes me think of her im English but fuck this is good

[pedgeman]

Best anthem I have ever heard in my life. Im Australian but that anthem brought a tear to my eye, what an atmosphere. If I was playing and had a crowd singing that with me Id be convinced I could beat anyone

[Sooty65]

One of my favourite sporting moments being a part of this with my Welsh g/f in the crowd at the Millennium c2000 before the Wales v England 6 nations..."things to do before you're buried under the turf'", no question....then Lawrence and the boys murdered 'em :)

[XxXWaLkErxX]

You can't beat the sound of 70,000 Boyo's!

[waciehawks]

@XxXWaLkErxX

Init butt ;)

[olliehm]

insane, makes me proud to be welsh.

[DariiWelshy]

Is it just me or do you get the hair on you back sticking up as well?

Cymru am byth!!

[harrychown1989]

how it should be sung! Not some over amped blonde girl

[radicalgoodspeed16]

look at that sea of red

[synysterslash580]

makes me proud to be welsh

[vixart]

it doesn't get much better than this !

[jig678]

god feel so homesick listening to this, living in Australia because of husbands job (lovely country lovely people) but my heart is welsh and always will be.

[kingjezza]

It is my dream one day to attend a test match at the Millenium stadium, especially to hear the crowd sing Land of My Fathers. If rugby games were won on singing alone, the Welsh would kick ALL our arses! Best national anthem of all the rugby-playing countries ... I'm an Aussie btw =)

[Xxwicksy2217xX]

best atmosphere in the world

[WelshWarriorJackArm1]

what an atmosphere, even better when we score a try against teams like england, and major ones like new zealand,australia and new zealand

[Oldbluesock]

this is such a great atmosphere to be in, i went it was amazing

[s2kadz]

In English:

Land of my Fathers, O land of the free,

A land of poets and minstrels, famed men.

Her brave warriors, patriots much blessed,

It was for freedom that they lost their blood.

Wales! Wales!,

I am devoted to my country.

So long as the sea is a wall to this fair beautiful land,

May the ancient language remain.

[FungawaMan]

Go on boyos! Sing for Wales!!

[electroplox]

go the all blacks!!!! god defend  New zealnd!!

[duane2dah]

By far the best sung anthem in the British Isles. From an Enlishman

[duane2dah]

By far the best sung anthem in the British Isles. From an Enlishman

[Tehui1974]

One day I'm going to make it to this magnificent stadium to watch the Wales play my All Black side, and listen to the Welsh sing their beautiful national anthem.

[awareman1]

Try to find a fault. Impossible. Pure, through and through.

[xxcharlotteparsonsxx]

RYDW IN CARY CYMRU!! :D xx

[funsi3]

WALES forever.Cymro ir carn.Luv u wales!!xxxxxx

[pintglass101]

ohhh the passion, the support, the banta, the pride, the atmosphere, the welsh slang (il be there now in a minute to watch the next game) the fact that other countries sing with us, e.g the scotsmen in this video, make us proud to be WELSH. rugby = cracking sportsmanship!!!

[steve8765]

I Know i was born in England,but i am Half Welsh on my Mother's side so basically i do love the Welsh as i have welsh blood in me as well as english but the Welsh National Anthem is totally Amazing but when wales play england at either the millenium stadium in cardiff or twickenham in somewhere in england i am always NEUTRAL !! As if i could play rugby professionally i could play for either Wales or England !! as my father is English and my mother is Welsh !..

[mycal64]

@steve8765 Haha! If you had a soul you'd choose for Wales!

[krazyjordy]

Mae Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau

[al6595]

carnt wait to sing this against france its going to be awsome

[weeman28oli]

I have Welsh Grandparents and this makes me think of them. It never fails to make the hairs stand up on my arms. Im proud to be part welsh

[kubrick767]

I'm English but the hairs on the back of my neck never fail to stand up when I hear this.

[MetroLove5]

Bloody love the welsh!, I was only 9 when I went to a last rugby match and sung this song, i knew everyword & im a girl!, Natinal Anthem is the best :D

[Bronyaification]

ive been there and done that !! my gran had an apartment just down the woad from that stadium pretty awesome at night

[TheRealLouHali]

Praise to the uploader of this video! In the right place at the right time to hear a stadium and thousands of Welsh compatriots watching the tellyV give the best rendition of the national song ever! I have never heard better from a sports crowd ever, just like a giant choir. I am not a big follower of rugby but being Scottish I am curious to know how much we got beat by on that day. Please tell!

[roryrobinson]

Fair play, many comments from the english on here that shows real maturity for praising the welsh national anthem. British love to you all, from a welshman :)

[Bedwyr17]

bradwr

[nevadajo7]

best anthem in the WORLD..without a doubt !! :))))

[KnightOfChrist1]

Beautiful.

I'm English and love to hear the Wales fans sing, I remember first taking notice of it when I was a kid, they were my fave side to watch in the mid 70's, what a team! It wasn't easy being English back then lol.

[sneery]

@KnightOfChrist1 and it is now?

[KnightOfChrist1]

@sneery

Is that an attempt at a joke?

Well we have won the world cup once so....The team these days is better than the England of old though I'll always remember the likes of Ripley, cotton, and co. Incidently have Wales won the world cup : )

[walks117]

Rugby crowds are absolute crap compare to football crowds.. no fuckin passion

[bigbobsas]

No mate, the difference is we can stand next to the opposition in the crowd, at the end of the game we shake hands win or lose, not stick a glass in their face. Thats passion for the game you sad twat.

[minivannistelrooy]

the crowd at murrayfield is much better than any at old trafford, ibrox.

Football is a game for gentlemen, played by hooligans.

Rugby is a game for hooligans, played by gentlemen.

[GaryPucket]

What a load of bollocks !!!!!!!.

I have followed our national team to support our national sport home and abroad for eighteen years and more than 30 countries and this myth is always thrown at us.We had Scotland rugby fans turn their heads away when we said hi to them in Paris when we beat the French there during the rugby world cup.Gentlemen ????,maybe but only in their own world which is insular and looks down their noses at their fellow countrymen.

[kyleearland]

shivvers everytime i think about it, the most powerfull national anthem in the world! WITHOUT FAIL! CYMRU AM BYTH

[gwionems]

sing lady with the glasess focin cana, bechod bod players football cymru ddim yn canu

[bigbobsas]

no video, no tv programme can ever reproduce the atmosphere and pride that is in that stadium when this is sung. Sends shivers up your back and one of the best experiences ever.

[Tehui1974]

There's a HUGE difference between passionate rugby fans, and passionate football / soccer fans. It's like comparing gentlemen to thugs. Go rugby!!

[GaryPucket]

With your sports elitist 'old school tie' background in both England and Scotland you have managed to continue and further the divisions between people.Our national sport in Scotland is the peoples sport because its open and accessible to ALL unlike the so called gentleman,s sport where stamping on heads is only recently being eradicated.Passionate people are passionate people so dont look down your snotty nose at your own people it just makes you look bad.

[Tehui1974]

The worst thing about football are the hooligans. No other sport has fans as vile and plentiful. Organised fights and defacto gangs are common place with football through out the world. England and Germany are the worst.

[GaryPucket]

@Tehui1974 Very true but you must never tar people with the same dirty brush.Football will by association always attract so called hooligans.The nations you mention have been superceeded by the Greeks,Poles and Russians as I have had to encounter on my travels.

[Shanker1974]

I was there, It is the best anthem in the world, it give OUR boys a 6 point start every game, Cymru Am Byth,

Wales I Serve .......

[MorrisWales]

@Shanker1974 Cymru an byth = Wales i serve?

dont think so :S

[Raichu234]

I'm english but the welsh national anthem is amazing! x

[MrFridayMan1]

@Raichu234 same im english and to be honest dont relly like the welsch but they have such a better crowd than in twikenham

[barnsey85]

@Raichu234 agreed!!

[jdkdar]

I am an ex-pat kiwi living in Melbourne and this song has always been special to me ever since I can remember

[zobo22]

I almost got reduced to tears at 0:35. This is what rugby should be about, bringing people together no matter what country, being patriotic and sharing that patriotism. Love this from England

[lukeperrin123456]

total agreement

[Valvallaria]

The translation in the description isn't a "translation" but rather a rewrite to fit the english language - it barely has anything to do with the original songtext.

[gwionems]

canwch y ffocin prics

[cookiii]

singing the national anthem in the millenium statidum is an experience

[StoodStill]

yeh the top bit hs got like a wavey blue pattern.

[djmurgo]

Gwlaadd ! Gwladd! :)

[StoodStill]

Does any1 know why all the seat colours are a bit random? They should be all red lol. Not red, green and blue in a daft order lol.

[hakametal]

green is part of the welsh colours. their socks are green too.

havent a clue about the blue.... is there blue??????

[Leighboi12]

No blue

[WelshDude15]

cymru am byth, mae'n gret cymru

[thelucy3703]

Not a big fan of the Welsh but when this song is chnated in this way, it is impossible not to feel your hair stand up on teh back of your neck, spectacular!!!

[iantonowful]

We got you love - you've been kissed

[djmurgo]

true :)

[algltd]

Sitting In This Stadium Is Rugby At Its Best - AN Absolutely Fantasic Atmosphere - With 72000 People Belting This Out , Nothing Compares To This

And I Know... I've Been There

Wales Vs Italy & France Last Year

[harare40]

The voice of a nation! Come on Cymru!

[bensy010]

A marvelous stadium and proud singing culture. I would love to experience the millennium stadium.

[lagalensa]

canto multitudinario. bastante desordenado. no se alcanza a escuchar el acompañamiento. emocionante!

[Onebody02]

I'm French but I love Wales too,

EskiimooCookies =D

COME ON WALES !

[EskiimooCookies]

im irish but i love wales COME ON WALES..!!!!!

[tom2006wr]

WALES 4 EVA!

[CharlieSmigz]

[Llanfairfechan007]

Goose pimples.... Come on Wales..!

[MacavitysCat]

Sends a shiver down my spine - wonderful!

[jameshookndmcflymad]

WALES FOR EVER!

CYMRU AM BYTH!

Grand Slam 2009 (yn) but deffinatly 6 nations. best Anthem by far. xxxx

[nonameboy1234]

obviously this irish guy does not like Wales

what i dnt get then is why he is watching vidoes of our anthem?!

personally i stay away from things i dislike

[bigandy150]

welsh have the best.but i think scotland is a close second.

[joelandrews91]

we have the best national anthem fair play.

ireland has the second best.

and nothing beats the atmosphere of 72000 people singing this song in that wonderful stadium, nothing. :)

[lfcireland]

the best national anthem EVER!! And i aint welsh!! Hearin it in Cardiff at a Rugby match is extraordinary!!

[chsbcg]

Cân wŷch! Na fyddwn yn elynion eto.

[Gus313UK]

The best national anthem- full stop- wish i spoke welsh , just so i could sing along- but - fuck that

[chsbcg]

Why did you not learn Welsh?

[GlynTaft]

The greatest of National anthems.

[19ufo47]

Very beautiful. I have Welsh Blood, but don't know much of my lost Welsh side. Thanks for sharing.

[ches1212]

makes me proud to be welsh

[oxfordeddie]

I'm a paddy,living in England, and fortunately don't share any racist views on anthems or who wins the rugby. My favourite anthem, however, is Land of my Fathers followed by Ireland's Call.

[marcusbwoii94]

I went to the italy game last six nations, when we had the grandslam again, and by god did i feel fucking proud singing the best anthem in the world.

[welshkid246]

amazin...nothin can compare to 80,000 ppl singing the best anthem in the world (mae hen wlad fy nhadau) the only thing that can come close is winning the grand slam and i think theyre tied it great that we were actually able to more or less feel the atmosphere because u filmed it while inside the stadium but beliveve me ppl...its even better wen ur there! thanx 4 postin :)

CYMRU AM BYTH!! :D

[StoodStill]

80,000. Dont flatter yourself mate, its only 72,000 seats cramped into a shit stadium.

[welshkid246]

And it still beats your crappy little handbag you call "Wembly stadium"

[StoodStill]

"little handbag" Wembley has 90,000, so whos the little one now? oh and by the way im from Cork, Ireland which our stadium is called croke park which has 82,000. Nah Millenium stadium is a craphouse compared to the rest of us ;)

[welshkid246]

it doesn't matter how many seats are available inside because no country has hearts and souls as good as the welsh. Cork did you say?.... take a hint and put a cork in it your words are meaningless.

[StoodStill]

oh yeh you would say that wouldnt you. Well i would say the Irish has the most culture and heart and soul. Yeh Cork, where you from? Tyllynchwefyufgouhglyyb? thats a welsh place is it not?

[welshkid246]

Actually no...it's not however

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwy­rndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

is and so is

Gorsafawddachaidraigodanheddog­leddollonpenrhynareurdraethcer­edigion

...what's your point??

[StoodStill]

well with names like that, i mean come on.. its a bit sad isnt it. Your British not Japanese.

[welshkid246]

Believe it or not those words are welsh... not japanese. How pathetic... making fun of a country using they're own language -_- and your one to talk! Irish gaelic and welsh are so similar they can often appear as the same language. But we're obviously the ones better off... we even have a country in south America that speaks welsh "Patagonia" i think your the sad one here...

[StoodStill]

A country in South America,well done good for you. Looks like we've got 2 pointless and boring countries in this world. Nah every1 wants 2 be Irish ;)

[welshkid246]

Yes unfortunately we do indeed have two boring and pointless countries in this world.... Ireland and..... When I think of another one I'll let you know. Everyone wants to be Irish?!?! Everyone without a brain yeah

[StoodStill]

god u welsh are so easily offended. And they can never do anything on TV or anything without saying "hii im frrrrrroommm Waaayyylllleeessss"

[welshkid246]

Yeah but you know it's better than going around being known for little leprechauns

[StoodStill]

dont dis the leprechauns, suppose its better than sheep shaggers, Britians shame, God's toilet or plain boring zzzzzzz

[welshkid246]

Not only are your comebacks weak but you obviously have no originality about you...I think it's time to grow up my friend XD

[StoodStill]

yh whatever time to emmigrate my friend. XD

[welshkid246]

Well as long as you don't come to this country -_- now if you don't mind (figure of speech there i couldn't care less if you minded or not) but I'm getting rather bored of this and have better things to do with my time.

[StoodStill]

and its taken you this long to realise lol

[welshkid246]

No actually I knew full well that you were an amature but I found your pathetic little remarks quite amusing. However I'm now getting bored with it and so am going to carry on with my A-level Chemistry :)

[StoodStill]

IRELAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND

[welshkid246]

Yn sbwriel!!

[Ashby2508]

Lol. Such a simple insult. Hoyw may have been better though. =P

[joelwhitaker]

At least if Wales are losing... which is not very often, ae don't get up and leave half way through the game... We stand firm for our team!!!!!

[StoodStill]

"not very often" a bit smug wouldn't u say? Well obviously, who would want to watch their team get beat?:S im sure there are lots of welsh fans who would leave when they get beaten.

[joelandrews91]

lol obviously after they get beaten. everybody leaves after the game ahaha

[boredboringbeing]

Fans leave when we Win too, otherwise we'd be in the stadiums all our lives...

[StoodStill]

yeh whatever m8, but then agn if u wer an away fan u mite wanna avoid the traffic? Stay in the stadium all your life? Do u taffs not have jobs?

[boredboringbeing]

Christ, it wasn't meant seriously dumbass. Learn to speak your only ,simple , language properly too in between the moments of retarded and arrogant thoughts... Do you know what that even means? :S

[jajeruend]

and what was the first thing you said? something about "hi im english" no doubt. tosser

[StoodStill]

wat u gna do abt it? lol

[jajeruend]

absolutely nothing. wasting my time on some insignificant creature who cannot spell? i think not

[tango4355]

u go girl!!!

[jajeruend]

leave your degrading comments to yourelf. and anyway its welsh not british!

[Nickel186]

I agree Completely, Wales should be Welsh! The american's think Wales is a county in England. Maybe we should show the world we are a proud country, and win trophy's in many sports, not just Rugby, In the olympics, we should have Welsh athletes, etc...

[noybf]

no we don't

[joelandrews91]

we should have welsh entities for all sports i agree, but we shudnt fully devolve aha we wouldnt survive by ourselves x]

[jkflipflopify]

Shame that culture didn't stopped you getting pwned by the English.

THE SUN NEVER SETS

[Ashby6789]

Being Welsh is one of the Best things in the World.

But i aint racist.

So for that im british. As long as Ireland dont win nothing im happy. :)
