Cerys Matthews - Calon Lan

[NekoGabby]

My adopted father is Welsh, and I remember from when I was young, the only time he'd be interested in sports was when Wales was playing Rugby and I'd hear this song play. I love this song to bits, and Cerys Mathews just has a wonderful voice to sing it with.

[Whyeatsausage]

I really do, and the same with this song. :) :)

I'm only a bit Welsh, is it okay for me to like this? :P I can count to ten and sing happy birthday, but that's about it. This is absolutely gorgeous though, I've been playing it over and over again.

[Backscrachter]

Ydych chi'n Gymro?

Fi'n ddim yn gwybod sut bydd Saeson yn edrych allan can cymraeg fel hon...

Are you Welsh?

I dont know how someone english will find out about this song.....

[bluemushroom]

gives me goosebumps every time I hear this song

Cerys' version is by far the best imo

I don't ask for a luxurious life,

the world's gold or its fine pearls,

I ask for a happy heart,

an honest heart, a pure heart. A pure heart full of goodness Is fairer than the pretty lily, None but a pure heart can sing, Sing in the day, sing in the night.
