Dassevelys A'n Magoryow - Anthem for Cornwall

Not to detract from "Bro Goth" and "Trelawney" but here's another anthem for Cornwall, in case we ever need another one. Translated from the anthem of miners of unknown origin.

Lyrics (Cornish)

Dassevelys a'n magoryow, treylys orth an devedhek
Y'th oberyn dadder kemmyn, Kernow mammvro unys tek
Agan hwel anken koth fetha, hag y'n fethyn ni warbarth
Y sewyn yn serten ha'n howl, tekka ages kyns bythkweth
Splanna dres Kernow
Splanna dres Kernow

Y fo chons ha kres grontys dhe Gernow, agan mammvro
An bys oll a hwans kres ystynn, dha leuv dh'oll a'n poblyow
Mar kesunyn avel breder, y fydh kres y'gan bro ni
Y fo an golow kres splanna, may na kyn mamm namoy hy
Mab meurgerys hi
Mab meurgerys hi

[brethynda123]

The melody is the national anthem of the former German Democratic Republic.

[cornubian]

Kernowyon ha Kernow kensa. Dyllansow Truran ha Angarrack bys vyken.

Flamank ha Myhal An Gof bys vyken. Calesvol ha Artur arta!

Rex quandam Rex que futurus. Malum ab Aquilone. Vita Merlini.

All be still. Stand silent and strain your ears. Listen carefully and you will hear it.

The sound growing closer through the mist of its hooves thundering across the land.

The Boar of Cornwall Returns.
