  • Only Boys Aloud - Calon Lan & Don't Stop Believing (Now in HD)
    Calon Lan
    Nid wy'n gofyn bywyd moethus
    Aur y byd na'i berlau mân
    Gofyn rwyf am calon hapus
    Calon onest, calon lân.
    Calon lân yn llawn daioni
    Tecach yw na'r lili dlos
    Does ond calon lân all ganu
    Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos.
    Pe dymunwn olud bydol
    Chwim adenydd iddo sydd
    Golud calon lân rinweddol
    Yn dwyn bythol elw fydd.
    Hwyr a bore fy nymuniad
    Esgyn ar adenydd cân
    Ar i Dduw, er mwyn fy Ngheidwad
    Roddi imi galon lân.
    Peidiwch â Rhoi'r Gorau i Credu/Don't Stop Believing
    Dim ond merch tref fach
    Byw mewn byd unig
    Aeth y trên canol nos yn mynd yn unrhyw le
    Dim ond bachgen ddinas
    Ei eni a'i fagu yn Ne Detroit
    Cymerodd y trên canol nos yn mynd yn unrhyw le
    Mae cantores mewn ystafell myglyd
    Mae arogl o win a persawr rhad
    Am gwên gallant rannu y nos
    Mae'n mynd ymlaen ac ymlaen ac ymlaen ac ymlaen
    Dieithriaid, aros, i fyny ac i lawr y rhodfa
    Mae eu cysgodion chwilio yn y nos
    Pobl stryd, yn byw dim ond er mwyn dod o hyd i emosiwn
    Cuddio yn rhywle yn y nos
    Gweithio'n galed i gael fy llenwi
    Mae pawb am gael gwefr
    Talu unrhyw beth i rolio'r dis
    Dim ond un mwy o amser
    Bydd rhai ennill, bydd rhai yn colli
    Mae rhai wedi eu geni i ganu y felan
    O byth yn y ffilm yn dod i ben
    Mae'n mynd ymlaen ac ymlaen ac ymlaen ac ymlaen
    Peidiwch â rhoi'r gorau i gredu
    Ddal gafael ar y teimlad
    pobl olau stryd

    • @stevenmadrigal3110
      @stevenmadrigal3110 Před 10 lety +2

      Gives you goosebumps because of the musical cord... each human being has a sense of sound... music combines the sound into cords and creates notes.. and with a choir you are listening to many notes and layers... and with layers creates power and sound.. the goosebumps you feel are from you could say the musical layers and resonance in the voices and the layers in the music... its a lot for the mind to take in at once.. and are brains are sensitive... hence why words and music mean so much.

    the world's gold or its fine pearls,
    I ask for a happy heart,
    an honest heart, a pure heart.
    A pure heart full of goodnessIs fairer than the pretty lily,None but a pure heart can sing,Sing in the day and sing in the night.
    If I wished for worldly wealth,
    It would swiftly go to seed;
    The riches of a virtuous, pure heart
    Will bear eternal profit.
    (Chorus) Evening and morning, my wish
    Rising to heaven on the wing of song
    For God, for the sake of my Saviour,
    To give me a pure heart.

      +talboters44 That is quite silly.

  • @donaldedward4951

    They can and do sing in English since they are all bilingual but Calon Lan is a Welsh song one of the many from the vast collection of Welsh poems and songs that of which some people are not aware. This language is derived from the language spoken in Britain 2000 years ago much changed of course (and like those in the rest of Europe) when the Romans and later when the Angles and Saxons arrived on those shores. Not everybody knows this. Thought you might like to though.

      Good try ,however, the Welsh language is known to be the oldest European language. You are limiting the date to AD while it is well documented that the Welsh were speaking before the Roman occupation. So try again Donald.

    • @donaldedward4951
      @donaldedward4951 Před 9 lety +5

      Ian Carey Of course. The Celtic tribes that met the Romans in (when was it) 54 BC did not speak the Welsh that we speak today but spoke an antecedent langage from which the Welsh language (Cymraeg) was developed and that is why we Welsh often think speak proudly of our language as Yr Hen Iaith ( the Old Language). The language was influenced by Latin and there are many words that were borrowed from latin for example Ysgol (school), llyfr (book) and many that owe their origin to its Indo-European roots for example plentyn (children) mynydd (mountain). Of course there are many words of Anglo-Saxon origin or Norman French. I find it strange that the Romano-Celtic language of Great Britiain influenced the language of the Anglo Saxons so little and apart from place names in Scotland, Wales and Cornwall have left little trace. As you know before the Roman occupation of Europe the numerous Celtic tribes were spread from the Atlantic Ocean to east to Turkey and from the Rhine River south to the Mediterranean. The invaded Italy at one point and sacked Rome and were believed by the more sophisticated Greeks to be barbarians. I am not a expert philologist but I do find languges fascinating.

      The Welsh language is the oldest known European language. Many scholars are still dumb founded by the writings found upon some of the old Celtic crosses.

      Calon Lan in English:
      I don't ask for a luxurious life,
      the world's gold or its fine pearls:
      I ask for a happy heart,
      an honest heart, a pure heart.
      A pure heart is full of goodness,
      More lovely than the pretty lily:
      Only a pure heart can sing -
      Sing day and night.
      If I wished worldly wealth,
      He has a swift seed;
      The riches of a virtuous, pure heart,
      Will be a perpetual profit.
      Late and early, my wish
      Rise to heavan on the wing of song,
      To God, for the sake of my Saviour,
      Give me a pure heart.

      Karen Battenbough Thank you so much for the translation. I was a19 yr old foreign student nurse @ the Robert Jones & Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital, Oswestry on the border of England & Wales, when this elderly frail lady who had not spoken for a while gently started to sing Calon Lan this song. Made me cry then, 39 years ago and again today. I was homesick for Dominica. Somehow it soothed me. It was a turning point for me. I now know why. WOW Thanks again Karen. Cymru Ambyth!
