Hello

The song is Can y Pen Ceffyl and if you would like the lyrics, please contact the Sleeping Giant Foundation by email and they will send them to you.

Diolch!

I sent you a personal message but you never sent me the lyrics, I'm still waiting for it. I understand standard welsh but this is too dialectical. Diolch
