Ex-Catatonia singer Cerys Matthews performing 'Deio I Dywyn' at the 2008 National Eisteddfod's 'C Ffactor' concert on the Maes, Cardiff. With harp accompaniment from Catrin Finch.
@angiepee Sorry, there was supposed to be a link in the last one but it's not letting me post it! The lyrics are : I received a short letter from Mr. Jones from Brithdir, and in that he asked, would I go with Deio to Tywyn. We started Friday night, come to Mawddwy by suppertime. We had there porridge and butter, while going with Deio to Tywyn. Onwards and past Dinas, bread and cheese and beer in Gwanas; through Talyllyn we went in a string, going with Deio to Tywyn. MF . . .
@angiepee Haha, it's a faaaaab version fp! Well, it's basically about a man/woman who was asked to go with 'Deio' to a place called Tywyn and all about what they did on the way! Here's the English lyrics if you want them :L lol
Thanks ever so much for posting this.. I flicked over from another channel whilst watching something else.. This was on, and I fell in love with it! I taped what I could of it, but not the title unfortunately! Ive been trying to find out what it is since then! Only just thought of checking youtube!
Could you enlighten me as to what its about please? i LOVE it!
@DeioIDywyn
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for taking the time to do that for me!
My Grandad was Welsh from Denbigh and I would love to learn a few lines of Welsh in his honour!

@DeioIDywyn Coming through Abergynolwyn
and onward under Craig y Deryn:
we arrived in Ynys Maengwyn.
Deio shouted "There's Tywyn!"
If I get to live another year
I intend to save up a lot, -
I'll have a great pleasure
going with Deio to Tywyn.
