Aled Jones Lyrics

Nant Y Mynydd (The Mountain Stream)
Words: J. Ceiriog Hughes / Music: David Vaughan Thomas

Nant y mynydd groyw loyw
Yn ymdroelli tua'r pant
Rhwng y brwyn yn sisial ganu
O na bawn i fel y nant.

Grug y mynydd yn eu blodau
Edrych arnynt hiraeth ddug
Am gael aros ar y mynydd
Yn yr awel efo'r grug.

Adar mān y mynydd uchel
Godant yn yr awel iach
O'r naill drum i'r llall yn hedeg
O na bawn fel deryn bach.

Mab y mynydd ydwyf finnau
Oddi cartref yn gwneud cān
Ond mae nghalon ar y mynydd
Efo'r grug a'r adar mān.

The Mountain Stream

Mountain stream, clear and bright
Meandering toward the valley
Among the rushes softly singing
O that I were like the stream!

Mountain heather in flower
Looking at it creates a longing
For staying in the mountain
In the breeze with the heather.

Little birds of the high mountain
Rise in the clear air
From peak to peak they fly
O that I were like a bird!

I too am a son of the mountain
Away from home making a song
But my heart lies in the mountain
With the heather and the little birds.
