I’m American. But I love the Welsh Anthem! They sing it with so much emotion! I have some Welsh in me. Thanks.

[@petrasant5495]

God Bless America and it’s great people.

[@balansheppard3336]

I am an American and proud of my country. But, like most Americans, my forebears came from somewhere else. In my case, most came from Wales. My grandfather was born in Pontypridd.

One of the most beautiful anthems ever. I'm an American with probably some Welsh blood in my ancestry. I have been honored to have some of the dearest friends who are from Wales. I love the culture and history of Wales. God bless Wales and her people.

[@gogiruns]

I honestly became a fan of Wales at the Euro 2016 when I heard the national team and the fans singing this intensely beautiful song. I was impressed by the passion and the quality of the singing - I have never heard a more beautiful national anthem. Surely this reflects the great bardic folksong tradition in Wales. Keep your beautiful language and music heritage alive for future generations! Lots of cheers from a Scandinavian. :)

I love to sing this and always cry at the end the only thing is I am English, but this song is for the people the land and all live there. Unlike the English one it is for one person and not the people or the land. Rwyf wrth fy modd i ganu hyn a bob amser yn crio ar y diwedd, yr unig beth yr wyf yn Saesneg, ond gân hwn ar gyfer y bobl y tir ac i gyd yn byw yno. Yn wahanol i'r un Saesneg ei fod ar gyfer un person ac nid y bobl neu'r tir.

henry VII was welsh and born in wales, the tudor-tewdar family was also welsh, nearly every historian ignores the origin of the english royal family- its origins were not english lol

The land of my fathers is dear unto me, a land where the minstrels are honoured and free, Its warring defenders, so gallant and brave, For freedom their life's blood they gave country!, country!, faithful I am to my country! While the sea serves as a wall for this land so pure, O, may the language endure forever. O land of the mountains, the bard's paradise, Whose precipice, valleys are fair to my eyes, Green murmuring forest, far echoing flood Fire the fancy and quicken the blood For tho' the fierce foeman has ravaged your realm, The old speech of Wales he cannot o'erwhelm, Our passionate poets to silence command, Nor banish the harp from your strand.
