English Translation:
Oh love turns in every direction,
complex is the feeling that sparks after a touch.
Free is the starling to a tender melody that calls,
a wave that pays the fine, your love is like the tide.
The flow of the river like an echo through my heart
that is so abandonded -- the light of the sun is on us.
Lift your bow, take a straight arrow and shoot.
My heart is in grief,
best friend do your worst.
Love, oh what love,
love, oh what love.
Love, oh what love,
love, oh what love.
Why do the welsh gotta be so goddamn moving with words n song n shit?
*weeps*
vocally she has cast a spell not soon to be broken
the gold standard in a female voice in song
voice of an angel..if yer drummer doesnt show up sure just use a machine..pure class
Cate Le Bon O am Gariad
O mae cariad yn troi i bob cyfeiriad
Cymhleth yw'r teimlad sy'n tanio ar ôl cyffyrddiad
Yn ffri mae'r drudwy i alaw mwyn sy'n galw
Ton sy'n talu dirwy, ma'th gariad di fel llanw
Llif yr afon fel atsain drwy fy nghalon
Sydd mor afradlon - golau'r haul sydd arnom
Cod dy fwa cym saeth sy'n syth a saetha'
I fy nghalon i anela
Ffrind gorau gwna dy waetha'
Cariad, o am gariad
Cariad, o am gariad
Cariad, o am gariad
Cariad, o am gariad
Thanks, I have been listening to this video for a decade, and now some lyrics in the language. Thank you.
Pure joy is what I feel listening to Cate.
One of my favourite tunes discovered recently..It is a classic
I don't know what she's singing but this is a beautiful song!! Totally spellbinding.!! I think i prefer not to know the English translation as it ads to the mysticism! Absolutely brilliant!!
Ik dacht precies hetzelfde. Het maakt mij niet uit dat ik er niks van begrijp.
Beautiful a Genuine Talent,Really Hope She Gets Success "Talent can be Obstacle,Seriously"
Beautiful.....Cate, is simply fab!
a star of such magnitude
I love it!
This is sooooo beautiful
Very bloomin wonderful ❤
Love this tune ...O am gariad Kate bach...
Brilliant.
The whole is more than the sum of its parts.
Supeme tune ..
Cake Le Bon.
Cate Le Bon alias for Tara Bethan
Gwych!
its a love song, the translation is lovely, but better in welsh, not only because it's my mother tongue, but the translation doesnt rhyme haha. But "O am gariad" translates to "Oh, what love"
100%
There is a little bit of the beat of 'Don't tell me' by Madonna in that simplistic Casio pre-recorded beat, Cate is so fking amazing, understated but so talented and into so much variety in musical tastes, no one else quite like her!
Maybe madonna used the casio pre installed beat as the basis of Dont tell me for all I know!
What guitar is Cate playing??
Wonderful phrase, is this Cate's song?
@DomKreamy Don't take the piss. Your first translation was spot on and you know it.
I only get this.... I don’t get anything else..Pam?..
Ble mae'r sylwadau Cymraeg?
Dw i’n dysgu Cymraeg achos dw i’n mwynhau bandiau fel Gorky’s, Datblygu, a Cate Le Bon. RIP David Edwards
I can find a release of this anywhere
Brychan Morris-Dafydd you must have some bonus track on yours I've only got 10 tracks I'll keep my eyes peeled cheers
Yes. A release with this and any other material in Welsh would be most welcome!
@DomKreamy I'll help finish what you started...Second verse:
O River Avon, my hand's in Lapsang Souchong
Steamy steamy fingers, heating up my cuticles
Rubber chimneys, my teeth are cloaked in Colgate
Helen bought a melon, but it was a wafer
Chorus:
Car yard, oh my hard yards
Car yard, oh my hard yards
Ooooooooooooooooooooooh
Cate makes Welsh, a language that often sounds like someone spitting whilst simultaneously coughing up a loogie, sound sexy.
And the second is roughly as JimmyKreegans stated;
O' River Avon, the rats and children hang on,
See my old frat lawn go to high seed ad lawn :(
God of the whack, whom sites and sees a safe arm,
Colony on hell, our finger ignored to wafer.
Card yard, oh I'm guard yard (repeat)
Ooooooh... To end.
Ok I messed it up a bit on purpose to see if anyone actually corrected me! But here's the basic first verse;
All my Cousins enjoy the graveyard
Come there Theo, tame lad, seen Tanya at the fifth yard.
Humphrey Madretroy, he almost had single Lou,
Tossing and turning dear Roy,
Mascara divas all knew.
All my cousins enjoy the graveyard,
I know I will it hold such presence.
Tossing and turning, this is my problem,
Killing a man in cold blood - Was I thinking?
See the sky with the smile of St Helen,
Time claws away like branchy broken hairlines,
Feeling empty, this man I have cut often,
Single handed black beard, groovy little number.
she's something very special.
