Cantre'r Gwaelod
Clouds cover moonlit night shining its faded light
Silent, the tides slide both low and high with their sigh
Eons and eons ago, women watched for them
Lighting their fires to guide home all the fishermen
Watched, the wave drew so near washing away our fears
Blessed us and baptized us when it broke on the pier
Brief, our despair and our cries at the things we've lost
Laughing the sea breaks, the drunken prince closed his eyes
All of us
All of them
Not apart
Never end
All the rust
All the blood
All lie as one
Soft call the bells, yawn their gonging upon the air
Chiming their sighing tone, mourning for what was there
Tried to rely on the walls that we built so high
Laughing the sea knocks, our wine-eyes comply
Silent, the tides slide both low and high with their sigh
Eons and eons ago, women watched for them
Lighting their fires to guide home all the fishermen
Watched, the wave drew so near washing away our fears
Blessed us and baptized us when it broke on the pier
Brief, our despair and our cries at the things we've lost
Laughing the sea breaks, the drunken prince closed his eyes
All of us
All of them
Not apart
Never end
All the rust
All the blood
All lie as one
Soft call the bells, yawn their gonging upon the air
Chiming their sighing tone, mourning for what was there
Tried to rely on the walls that we built so high
Laughing the sea knocks, our wine-eyes comply
