WHITE SNOWDON.*
(ERYRI WEN.) |

2. Though from their stormy haunts of yore,
Thine eagles long have flown ; As proud a flight the soul shall soar,
Yet from thy mountain throne ! Pierce then the heav'ns, thou hill of streams!
And make the snows thy crest! The sunlight of immortal dreams
Around thee still shall rest. |
2. OHh gylch mae cestyll cedyrn mawr,
Yn myn'd yn friwsion man ; Oth gylch mae twrdd tymhestloedd gawr,
Yn rhuo'ti gaeaf gdn. Ond dyma gastell gododd Duw,
Ag eira ar ei ben, I Annibyniaeih Cymrti fyw
Am byth, Eryri Wen. |
