WELSH NATIONAL ANTHEM. CELTIC VERSION
By the magical river Edw, two miles before it meets the Wye, Lorraine King sings a beautiful Celtic interpretation of the Welsh National Anthem, probably the finest Anthem tune in the world.

We have the same anthem, cousins ! Breizh ha Kembre, Llydaw a Gymru !
Love from CROATIA to CYMRU - Long live free CYMRU! It's about time, after more than 700 hunderd years!

We must all stay true in this age of great peril! All our borders are under assault. It's the same old thing: the people of the land in danger of being displaced by outsiders.

And to you Ivan, from one proud nation to another (one of my best friends is Croatian)
What a beautiful anthem from a beautiful proud nation Greetings from Ireland
Beautiful song which never fails to bring a tear to my eye. Gwald = nation. Nation = the people of the land. Without our land we are nothing but slaves. Blessings from your Irish brothers and sisters across the sea in the ancient land of Éire!

lee Lewis The Irish, Welsh, and Scots are the people of the Isles! Never forget!!!!!
Very few Welsh people seem to know this a song that is pro self-rule and independence hehe
This makes my heart yearn for my home. I miss my Wales! Thank you for posting.
The welsh athem is so sweet. It never calls the country by it's name. Only by affectionate nicknames. It is like the land were a beloved girlfriend of long date. The melody is not polluted by martial phrases. In fact, it is suitable to be sung to a baby, as he dozes into sleep. There is a short and a long version. The short version is brief and suitable for sports events. The long version makes me wish it was longer. The welsh athem is everything a national athem should be, and I envy the welsh people aestetic sense. Indeed, may the old language endure.
Never betray our heritage, our people!
This is a beautiful rendition of a beautiful anthem, Im Irish and proud, this song srikes a chord of all people from celtic countries. Brilliant
Love and all good wishes to the beautifull peoples of Wales on their special day
im so proud to be welsh we hae a great rugby team and by far the best anthem in the world
She sung the Welsh National Anthem really nice, just beautiful I enjoyed listening to her version.
This is an extraordinary version of one of my favourite songs. Great singing, great guitar work. Just brilliant. Well done. Chem Northern Ireland / Ulidia.
Thank you so much. Hello Holland from Wales.
Absolutely gorgeous! Lord, I Wish I Was Welsh!
By far the most beautiful version of this great anthem I've ever heard. Greets from Germany.
To be born Welsh is to be born blessed...... nuff said init !
I love this version. Makes me miss Wales even more! Home for Christmas- woo! I've been teaching about National Anthems. Wales is certainly one of the best. Even moreso with this version!
Naughty boy John ! you got me blowing my nose and wiping the tears from my eyes again.... best wishes from a Rhondda woolieback in Denmarc.
Now the is a proper National Anthem. Much better than most and especially the English dirge. Well sung young lady x
One of the few Anthems that bring tears of pride! A great nation, land of poets and warriors!

Diolch😭👌🏻👏. Dw i'n meddwl mae'n tlws a fendigedig
I'm spent all day yesterday walking around the house singing this arrangemant. I can't get it out of my head (no bad thing) Well done
As an Englishman I have nothing except respect for the Welsh, their patriotism is an example to behold in my opinion, akin to the Scots who again I hold in high regard. I've been to Wales, all over the south, the north and I loved the place and the people... They love their rugby and their country in tandem, what more could you honestly ask from men...??
Probably the finest Anthem tune in the world.....
My wife and I just listened to this and thought it was excellent, you have a great voice and you do the Welsh proud. Thank you.
never stops being a wonderful sound !! will last( forever) .
Also as a Canadian I concider the Welsh Anthem mine and i have nothing but great respect for my heritage,I love wales very much.We have been there twice and I'll be back home again as soon sas i can. Don't get me wrong I am a true Canadian but the relatives that i have met in Wales and the friends that I have made in Wales bring me back to a sense of home and comunity that wish that I knew here. God bless the Welsh!

You can love something without claiming it as your own. I'm not from Wales and also love their anthem
So beautiful . . .
Makes me damn proud to be a Celt, a welshmun true and proud! Keep the amazing signing up! :)
one more time !!!
The location adds to the effect. Thanks for your comment, I will pass on to Lorraine. She's a Swansea girl and a very proud Welsh woman.
Beautiful. Makes me want to go back home.
FANTASTIC!!!! LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!
Dignified ...ground-up independence for all people on this beautiful planet!
The River Edw is a magical river flowing through the most rural and peaceful landscape. There is another super river running through Camlan Field in Mid Wales. Type in 'Camlan King Arthur'on You Tube and have a look.
could the SOUTHERN irish anthem (the soldier's song, awrawn na veen) be reinterpreted as beautifully as this welsh one? god, this version is awesome.
Bootiful :)
Beautiful
beautiful
This is a lovely rendition of 'Hen Wlad fy Nhadau' - thanks - bedigedig!!
Sung tenderly. I like the softer earlier parts before the slightly strained conclusion.
Makes me feel so ** PROUD ** !
Thanks for comment. Lorraine has just returned from Vancouver, Canada where she undertook a concert. Type in 'I Cant forget my Wales', or 'Alan Cunningham, Erwood' for more Lorraine Welsh songs. JW.
Trackingtracker spoken like a true englishman...Obviously proud of your german queen and scottish prime minister....and that dirge of an anthem you ve got
i see your point bud and i agree with ya. it's just down to my own personal taste, the sound of the old choir back home in glyncorwyg singing it when i was a kid still sticks with me today.
Bravo Bravo. I loves it see.
so so good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@BDeiste Yes, It is beautiful~ and what a nice comment :D But the language of Wales (Cymru) isn't Gaelic (Gaelic has 2 versions, Scottish and Irish), it is called Cymraeg which is a Celtic language. Cymraeg is the oldest language in all of Europe. I am trying to teach myself the language, its my ancestory, Wales is my passion~ Diolch yn Fawr! Gail
Well, done John. Good pick
This is Beautiful. I am beginning a book and want to set it in Wales. Not sure why, it just drew me. I've never been there though, and since I'm blind the vids with scenery don't help. Any suggestions of vids or sites which describe your country? The music, food and lore I've found, so far is wonderful! Thanks...BTW is Welsh also Celtic? I've researched some Welsh, but I don't think I'm even close with pronunciation...Thanks for all your vids m

Ian Holme (as Fluellen): "Aye, all the water in Wye cannot wash yer majesty's Welsh blood from ye!" Kenneth Branaugh's "Henry V". I didn't understand that sentence until I saw this video.
Thanks for your comment. Its also interesting how many English have Welsh Surnames, Davies, Jones, Griffiths, Powell, Lloyd etc., It could be that their ancestors were Welsh and moved to England and started thinking of themselves as English. The hissing LL is made by putting your tongue at the top of your mouth and saying Llanfaircaerionion for instance or Llanfairpwllgwynwyth...... By the way I love Coventry Cathedral and the original one next to it. Always pop in to see them when in Coventry.
Sweet! :) Bendigadig! x
This is the version we use in Wales.. I didn't even know we had a English version?
The Welsh are Khumric or Cymric, though there are are some Celts in Britain, I read from a book by researchers Alan Wilson and Baram Blackett. This Celtic version of the Welsh National Anthem is hauntingly good.
Diolch yn fawr! Cymru am byth!🏴❤
Thanks McAndy89. Was up in the Orkneys recently. Beautiful land. JFW.
@Freimaco POINT TAKEN. We probably both agree that it is a superb and inspirational anthem. Your comment has legs. Thanks.
Loving the guitar and drum accompaniment in this. I know an Irish person would call the drum a "bodhran" but what's the Welsh name for it?
Quine beroia cansou aquere :) Salutat d'occitinia à tots los Celtas :)
Hi. No, not famous. Rather an unsung heroine of mine. Released a few CDs with bands. This is one of her few single CDs. She is the lead singer in Tribute bands also, Abba, Californians etc. Plays all over the U.K. in this guise. A brilliant performer and songwriter. Regards to you, John

As a Welsh speaking person I can assure you that Welsh is not a Celtic language. Welsh and the languages of Basque, Brythonic and Cornish are not Celtic but derive from the Iberian peninsula. The genome project confirms this. Celts are a different race altogether and came from Central Europe

@aTruster Just wondering, how do you know this was one of the languages given at Babel? Is there scripture to back it up?

@MrJazz56 Hi. Released on a CD by Lorraine King
The Welsh language is one of the original languages given at Babel.
where did you get this version from?? diolch
A long-standing rule banning athletes waving unofficial flags at the Olympic Games has been criticised by politicians in Wales. According to an International Olympic Committee (IOC) rule, competitors should not have flags which could be perceived as a "political gesture". This means the flags of Wales, England, Scotland and Northern Ireland are effectively banned. Team GB will be represented by the union flag Time for Welsh Independance boys !
great comment, thank you... Cymru Am Byth
Da Iawn!!
C'est la mélodie du hymne bréton =D

If you want to see good relations between Wales & the USA try seeing the reaction that Donny Osmond ( Welsh ancestors from Merthyr ) got when he sang in Welsh in Cardiff. :- Donny Osmond sings welsh verse of myfanwy in Cardiff on youTube ( no chance of war between US and Wales.......we ain't got any oil LOL ! )

It is New South Wales. When English Lieutenant Cook (later Captain Cook) saw the coast on Australia in the 1700s, he named the land South Wales as it reminded him of the South Wales coast. Later it was amended to New South Wales.
