I'm part Welsh, part English too. I will sing the English (British) anthem in a formal setting but I don't support English teams and I find it ugly when it is sung by crowds in sporting events. Conversely, the Welsh anthem has a very special place in my heart, oherwydd, "hen wlad fy nhadau" yw Cymru, a mae fy ngwlad yn sicr yn annwyl i mi. I always find it very moving to hear the anthem, especially sung in full force by a huge crowd spontaneously splitting into harmony. There's something very pure and noble about Welsh patriotism, the patriotism of a small nation which has retained its language and heritage and culture whilst being part of a larger country - and for the Welsh, for a small country to have such a successful international Rugby team (and now Football team too!) it is really amazing.

For such a small country as Wales and then only a small part of it makes for the Welsh rugby team and then how big they are on the world stage. The passion of the fans as well as the team itself... passion is not a strong enough word. In a fairly recent documentary, I remember Shane "twinkle toes" Williams, talking about how he was ready to take it to the all blacks as the anthems played. Legendary fans, players and team.. ... and all this from an Englishman :)

Although this may sound crazy but we (Khasi Tribe) in Khasi hills, Meghalaya, India, use this tune as one of our patriotic song (more like an anthem too). This happened because the Welsh Missionaries came over to our place in 1841. The Welsh missionaries even provided us with a script as our tribal khasi language is more of an oral tradition than a written one. This song was written by Rev Dr. John Robert one of the Welsh missionaries who came to North East India in the 19th century. He was the Founder-Principal of the erstwhile Cherra Theological College, established in 1887 at a place popularly known as Cherrapunji, officially called Sohra (one of the world's wettest places on Earth), Meghalaya, India. The name of the song is Ri Khasi Ri Khasi (Ri- means country, Khasi - for the Khasi people; meaning land of the Khasi people) Here is the link of the song sung recently kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5LEZmuVlpmJh9k
