Beltaine: Welsh Song by Ceredwen

Song of Ceredwen, tells about the celebration of summer festival, Beltaine (The Fire of Bel)

Lyrics :

Llywthau yn tynnu am yr ywl
Yn barod i daweli ei Arglwydd Dduw
Aroglau yn casglu yn yr awyr
Wrth gynnau coelcerthi Beltain

Dawnsio a siantio rownd y tan
Canu, addoli ei Duw
Er mwyn i'w ddyhuddo

Pwy a fydd yr un, rhaid cael dewis un
Y person cysegredig

Y dorth yn mynd o law i law
Er mwyn cael dewis y person iawn
Gwynebau yn dangos y straen
Yn y wledd Beltain

Translations :

the tribes gather for the festival
Ready to appease their God
The air is full of aromas
Of the lightning of the Beltaine fires

Dancing and chanting round the fire
Singing and worshipping their God
So as to please him

Who will be the one
Someone must be chosen
To be the sacred person

The bannock passed from hand to hand
To find the chosen one
Faces full of concern
In the feast of Beltaine
