Love this group a lot. Their '75 debut , Wa MacSpredar, is great.
Here are rough English lyrics for any of our fellow Non Welsh speaking fellers. Partly needed myself too as I'm still learning Welsh haha!
"The wind whispered its strong old song,
The waves drew back and night came near,
The Fenni looked on, cold and chill,
Between snowy Eryri and gentle Môn.
'Madog son of Owain, boundless of mind,
I plead, my baby, oh gentle old monk,
You went to the beyond,
Kind and bright,'
A reflection without shadow:
Mabon returned.
'Mabon, don’t be angry, don’t be harsh,'
Said God, 'Mabon is a child through grace.'
'Mabon and Madog went over to the ship,
They sailed to Gwenan, queen of the wave.'
Sun of the morning
Radiant as a lily;
Madog was unwavering.
Mabon like starlight;
They sailed past the far horizon,
Searching across the land for a better world.
Breeze beneath moonlight,
Sleep slows to a hush,
Mabon of the waters,
Summer of the wave,
They sailed past the far horizon
Searching for a better world.
The wind was hidden,
The sea stirred in revolt:
The wind was hidden and the sea turned wild,
Waves crashing, striking fiercely,
Drawing the sailors into the salt of the storm.
Waves crashing, striking fiercely,
Dragging the sailors into the salt of the storm.
The wind whispered its old song again…"
