Y Bryn Gwyn (The White Hill): Welsh song by Ceredwen

Another song by Welsh duo Ceredwen, taken from album 'The Golden Land.' The song is based on the second part of Mabinogion cycle; Bran the giant (Bendigeidfran) had been mortally wounded during the battle in Ireland to save his sister Branwen, who had been poorly treated by her husband (none other than the King of Ireland himself, Matholwch). He ordered his companions to cut off his head and bury it at the White Hill in London, facing towards France. His head had remained until the time of King Arthur, who removed the head in the belief that he alone should be guardian of the land. Later, when the Tower of London was built on the same site, ravens were brought there in memory of Bran. To this day, it is believed that as long as there are ravens in the Tower of London, there the island of Britain is safe from invasion. Lyrics: Saith ddaeth o'r Iweddon, siomedigaeth yn ei gwaed Y genhadaeth drosodd, i achub ei chwaer Mynd yn ol at yr ynys efo pen Bran yn ei llaw Y gost yn uchel ar ol aberthu ei cawr Yng nghwmni ei Brenin, yr amser aeth ymlaen Llawer o wledda, ysbryd Bran yn dal i'w arwain Edrych at Cernyw a wnaeth dorri yr hud Aethant i Lundain i gladdu pen ei arweinydd Bendigeidfran, y Brenin Mawr Bendigeidfran, yn cadw'r gelyn draw Bendigeidfran, y Brenin dewr Rhodd ei ben, rhodd ei ben i'w wlad Wedi dod i Lundain aethant at y Bryn Gwyn Fel y ddymunodd ei arweinydd a'i brenin Claddwyd pen Bendigeidfran yn edrych draw at Ffrainc Er mwyn amddiffyn ei wlad wrth unrhyw feddiant Translation: Seven came from Ireland, disappoinment in their blood The mission over, his sister saved Going back to the island with Bran's head in their hands Was a costly sacrifice Thus wnet by in the company of their King The spirit of Bran leading the feasting Looking towards Cornwall they broke the spell Then travelled to London to bury the head Bendigeidfran, the great King Bendigeidran, wardinf off the enemy Bendigeidfran, the brave King He gave his head to save the land Coming to London to the White Hill At the request of their King and leader They buried Bran's head looking toward France To save the land from invasion
