Echoes of the Valley

In the heart of the valleys, under skies so wide
Lies the soul of the miner, with pride deep inside
Through the dark and the danger, where the brave dare to tread
In the silence of the underground, where many have bled

Echoes of the valleys, whispers of the past
In the camaraderie that's built to last
Green hills bear witness, to the tears and the laughs
In the heart of Wales, where history crafts

Close-knit communities, where everyone's known
In the shadow of the pithead, where true grit is shown
The laughter in the tavern, the hymns in the air
Belie the weight of the sorrow, the miners bear

Echoes of the valleys, whispers of the past
In the camaraderie that's built to last
Cardiff green hills bear witness, to the tears and the laughs
In the heart of Wales, where history crafts

For every life taken, for every dream lost
The valleys hold stories, no matter the cost
But in the face of adversity, hope remains
In the heart of the miner, where strength sustains

So here's to the miners, in the valleys so green
To the dangers they've faced, to the unseen
May their stories remind us, of the price they've paid
In the beauty and the sorrow of the mining trade
Echoes of the valleys, whispers of the past
In the camaraderie that's built to last

In the quiet of the dawn, as the new day unveils
The spirit of the miner, in the Welsh hills prevails
For in every heart that remembers, their legacy lives on
In the echoes of the valleys

thats built to last
Green hills bare witness
To the tears and the laughs
In the heart of Wales
Where history crafts

In the quiet of the dawn
That the new day unveils
The spirit of the miners
In the welsh hills prevails
For in every heart that remembers
Their legacy lives on
In the echoes of the valley
