lyrics

Reget diffreidyat, The defender of Rheged,
clot ior agor g6lat, the lord of fame, anchor of the land,
vy mod yssyd arnat. my contentment is in your hands.
O pob erclywat, By all accounts,
d6ys dy peleitrat, your spear-blow is deep,
pan erclywat kat. When battle is heard.
Kat pan y kyrchy(n)t, When you go to battle,
g6nyeith a wneit. You wreak vengeance.
Tan yn tei kyn dyd, The houses are ablaze before dawn
rac vd Yrech6yd. before the lord of Erechwydd.
Yrech6yd teccaf, Erechwydd is the fairest land,
ae dynyon haelhaf. And its people the most generous.
Gna6t Eigyl heb waessaf As usual the Angles are helpless
am teyrn gle6haf. In the presence of the bravest ruler.
Gle6haf eissyllyd, Bravest of lineage,
tydi goreu yssyd, you are the best there is,
or a uu ac a uyd. of all that have been and all that will be.

Nyth oes kystedlyd. You have no competition.
Pan dremher arna6, When one looks at you,
ys ehelaeth y bra6. the terror is great.
Gna6t g6yled ymdana6, There is always humility in his presence,
am teyrn gocna6. in the presence of the forceful ruler.
Amdana6 g6yled, There is humility in his presence,
a llia6s maranhed, and great treasure,
eurteyrn gogled, the golden ruler of the North,
arbenhic teyrned. the foremost of rulers.
