Geiriau:
Yn ddiffael ym Mhorthgain
mae gen i'r haul, a dwi'm yn ail, i neb yn y byd.
Ac yn y bore pan ma'i'n ole
R'adeg ore i weld y pethe bach 'ma i gyd.
Gofid yw'r egni gwaetha'
('Llen i) fyth wedi meddwl 'i hala
Ma' gyd wedi mynd gyd wedi mynd gyd wedi mynd
Tra dwi fan hyn

A phan fyddai oddi yma
a nghalon i ar ffo
Mi fyddai'n dychwelyd bob tro
Ar eildon bach fy ngho'

Porthgain yw'r harbwr yn fy meddwl
Pob gwythien las yn lwybr arfordirol
Mynd a dod mae cwch bach fy nghalon
At y man lle does 'na ddim amheuon i lawr, i lawr, i lawr,

Ac ar y sgwar, mae gen i nghar
Mae gen i'n siar, ac ar fy ngwar mae'r gaea'n dod bant,
Ac o mae'r heli yn fy ngwaed i
ac mae'r glesni
yn dragywydd cynydd cant.

Gofid yw'r egni gwaetha'
('Llen i) fyth wedi meddwl i hala
dwi'n fyw fel y gwynt fyw fel y gwynt fyw fel y gwynt, tra dwi fan hyn

Pan fyddai rhywle arall
A myd bach i ar dro
Mi fyddai'n dychwelyd bob tro
Ar eildon bach fy ngho'

Porthgain yw harbwr fy meddwl
Pob gwythien yn arfordirol
Mynd a dod mae cwch fy nghalon
Hwylio'n braf heb amheuon

I lawr, i lawr, i lawr...

English Translation Lyrics:
Porthgain: a tribute to the beautiful fishing village of Porthgain, in Pembrokeshire, which I visit at least once a year in order to switch off from 'real life'. There is nothing better than roaming the coastal paths, having a drink in the notorious Sloop Inn, or merely sitting by the harbour watching the sun go down. Even when I'm far from here, I return to it again in my memory; the ebb and flow of my heart transporting me there."

Without fail in Porthgain
I've got the sun, and I'm not secondary, to anyone in the world.
And in the morning when it's light
Is the best time to see all these little things.
Sorrow is the worst energy
That I never would have thought of spending.
It's all gone, all gone, all gone
Whilst I'm here.

And when I'm away from here
And my heart on the run
I will always return
On the little waves of my memory

Porthgain is the harbour in my mind
Each blue vein a coastal pathway
The little ship of my heart comes and goes
Towards the place where there are no doubts down, down, down

And on the square, I have my car
I've got my share, and on the back of my neck the winter's fading away.
And oh the saltwater in my blood
and the blueness
is forever increasing.

Sorrow is the worst energy
That I never would have thought of spending.
I'm alive like the wind, alive like the wind, alive like the wind
whilst I'm here.

And when I'm somewhere else
And my little world on its head
I will always return
On the little waves of my memory

Porthgain is the harbour of my mind
Each vein is coastal.
The little ship of my heart comes and goes
Sailing contentedly without any doubts

Down, down down...

Mae hwn yn gân mor wych. Dwi'n falch iawn i ti am lanlwytho hwn, achos nawr dwi'n medru rhannu e gyda ffrindiau sy'n ddysgwyr a ddi-gymraeg a mae gennyn nhw y cyfle i werthfawrogu pa mor brydferth yw e, a deall y teimlad tu ôl i'r geiriau.
