Wales Anthem

Friday 18th May 2001

As Wales is currently part of the United Kingdom and thus officially falls under the British national anthem, "Mae hen wlad fy nhadau", or "Land of My Fathers", has long been adopted as the national anthem of the Welsh people.

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau
yn annwyl i mi
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion,
enwogion o fri,
Ei gwrol rhyfelwyr,
gwladgarwyr tra mad,
Tros ryddid gollasant
eu gwaed.

Gwlad, Gwlad,
pleidol wyf i'm gwlad,
Tra mor yn fur
i'r bur hoff bau.
O bydded i'r heniaith,
barhau.
