Product Description

"Ar Lan y Môr" is a popular tradtional Welsh folk song, and as with many folk songs, there are various versions. My personal preference is for this version; it paints a seashore picture that I can imagine, and I'm completely convinced by the romantic element!
Musically speaking, I love the alternating 3 and 4 beat bars; they make me think of waves coming irregularly to the shore.
Pronunciation notes: slight roll on all 'r' sounds; rye - 'ye' as in bye-bye; 'ch' as in loch, back of throat; 'll' is said H L - run them together 'hl'. Everything else is written phonetically.
Translation: 1. Beside the sea grow red roses, and white lilies, and there lives my true love, sleeping all night and rising in the morning.
2. Down where the sea laps at the flat rock, we walked together, and spoke words of love; lilies grow there, and branches of rosemary.
3. By the sea are blue pebbles, golden flowers, everything that's beautiful - and also my dearest sweetheart.
