Geiriau | Lyrics
Dwyt ti'm yn cofio Macsen?
Does neb yn ei nabod o.
Mae mil a chwe chant o flynyddoedd
Yn amser rhy hir i'r cof
Ond aeth Magnus Maximus o Gymru
Yn y flwyddyn tri-chant-wyth-tri,
A'n gadael yn genedl gyfan
A heddiw, wele ni!
Ry'n ni yma o hyd;
Ry'n ni yma o hyd;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;

Ry'n ni yma o hyd;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Ry'n ni yma o hyd.
Chwythed y gwynt o'r dwyrain.
Rhued y storm o'r môr.
Hollted y mellt yr wybren,
A gwaedded y daran encor.
Llifed ddagrau'r gwangalon,
A llyfed y taeog y llawr.
Er dued y fagddu o'n cwmpas
Ry'n ni'n barod am doriad y wawr!
Ry'n ni yma o hyd;
Ry'n ni yma o hyd;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Ry'n ni yma o hyd.
Ry'n ni yma o hyd;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth;

Cofiwn i Facsen Wledig
Adael ein gwlad yn un darn,
A bloeddiwn gerbron y gwledydd
Byddwn yma hyd Ddydd y Farn!
Er gwaetha pob Dic Sion Dafydd,
Er gwaetha y gelyn a'i griw,
Byddwn yma hyd ddiwedd amser
A bydd yr iaith Gymraeg yn fyw!
Ry'n ni yma o hyd;

[@allisonshaw9341]

From Gruffyd ap Cynan: For those interested in the meaning of this song, there are multiple layers to it. Here is a full analysis and explanation of the lyrics: - Macsen Wledig is the Welsh/Brythonic name for Magnus Maximus, a Roman General who was assigned to Britannia and who usurped much of the Roman Empire using Celtic British troops. His significance to Welsh history is that he was considered the ancestor of several Welsh dynasties, was said to have married a British Celtic woman, and is believed to have created a sense of independent Celtic British identity after he diminished the Roman presence in Britannia in 383. Some Welsh historians argued that this was the origin of Welsh as a distinctive, unified, and independent identity as the British Celtic ethnonym (Britons) became the Welsh ethnonym (or Cymry in Welsh). - The lyrics in the chorus then reference an event that is said to have occurred 800 years later when Henry II, King of England and ruler of the mighty Angevin Empire (spanning from southern Scotland to the south of France), was seeking to impose his lordship over the troublesome Welsh kingdoms. As he was travelling through Wales with his army, he came across an old Welshman on the roadside who, despite being a frail peasant, stood up to the invading king. He prophesied that no matter what Henry achieved in his campaigns, on Judgement Day the Welsh would still be standing proud in this land and their ancient language would live on (this tale is also referenced in the third and final verse of the song). A few years later, in 1165, Henry II was driven out of Wales by a coalition of Welsh kings aided by difficult weather conditions and never succeeded in bringing their kingdoms into his expansive empire. - The second verse references the invasions of the Welsh during the Dark Ages: the howling wind from the east (the Anglo-Saxon / English invasions) and the roaring storm from the sea (Irish and Viking raids). Notable heroic figures are mentioned in literature as rising up against these threats, some more historically accounted for than others. These include Cunedda who led the Britons to defeat the Irish settlers in North Wales, Urien Rheged who kept the Picts at bay and fought the Angles, Cadwallon who defeated the Anglo-Saxons of Northumbria at Hatfield Chase, and Rhodri the Great who developed a large navy to defeat the Danes. Most famous of these is Arthur who is likely a later literary invention based on several historical and semi-mythical figures who fought against the invaders of the Welsh/Brythonic kingdoms - the first source to mention Arthur is Welsh, likely long before he was adopted by French and English literature. The song references the hardship of this period as the tears of the weak-hearted flowed and somewhat mocks the servile who betrayed their own people. Like elsewhere in the song, these are intended to be parallels between these distant eras and present struggles for maintaining Welsh identity and heritage. It concludes that, despite these difficulties, the struggle will continue until things improve with the break of dawn. - The final verse is the one that most clearly associated these past events with the current political environment as it calls for unity and pride: to remember the past and bellow before the nations that, as the old man told Henry II, the Welsh will be here until judgement day despite any attempt to extinguish their identity by expansionist forces. The song references Dic Siôn Dafydd (sort of the Welsh version of an Uncle Tom) - a Welshman satirised in a poem from the year 1800 by John Jones who mocks a Welshman who abandons his heritage to pursue a shallow version of English culture due to having internalised prejudices. In spite of such people existing today (those who spurn their Welsh heritage and become culturally impoverished as a result), and in spite of Margaret Thatcher and her supporters who destroyed communities in Wales with mine closures while failing to invest in alternative industries; and who also tried to prevent a Welsh language TV channel from being established (until Welsh politician Gwynfor Evans went on hunger strike to prevent this), the song concludes that the Welsh and their language will be alive at the end of time. So, in short, the song ties together various historical references and moments that mirror each other and inspire us and are relevant to us in the present: to unite and preserve the linguistic, cultural, and political heritage of Wales against assimilationist forces that seek only to destroy and dominate, and to celebrate its longevity despite multiple attempts to undermine it. It's a nationalistic Welsh tune, but these are themes that ring true for small cultures and nations all over the world. 1

In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. We are still here. Let the wind blow from the East, let the storm roar from the sea. Let the lightning split the heavens, and the thunder shout "encore!" Let the tears of the faint-hearted flow, and the servile lick the floor. Despite the blackness all around us, we are ready for the breaking of the dawn! We are still here. We are still here. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. We are still here. We are still here. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. We are still here. We remember the Emperor Macsen, left our country in one whole piece. And we shall shout before the nations, "We’ll be here until Judgement Day!" Despite every Dic Siôn Dafydd, despite old Maggie and her crew, we’ll be here until the end of time, and the Welsh language will be alive! We are still here. We are still here. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. We are still here. We are still here. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. We are still here. We are still here. We are still here. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. We are still here. We are still here. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. In spite of everyone and everything. We are still here.

@@Penddraig7 what do you mean not CELTIC.

[@Penddraig7]

@@richardyoung7415 the way Celtic is used today is false, it was made up in the 17th Century as a way to oppress the Welsh and discredit the real British history so they could rewrite British history. Even in the proper original meaning of the term Celtic, the Welsh were not “Celtic” Celtic is not a race or ethnicity, Celts didn’t have their own specific language. Celt simply meant someone who lived in woods/forest, amongst the trees. The “Welsh” were mostly Gâl/Gwâl, being people who lived in the open and farmed the land and built houses in the open etc. which is why the French call Wales, Pays de Galles, meaning land of the Galles. The Welsh are and were not a single group of ethnic peoples, if fact, the north and south peoples were vastly different, more different then say those of Kent in south east England from the Scots in Scotland. They appreciated the word Celt to use it as a derogatory word to basically say that the Welsh were unsophisticated, unintelligent, tree dwellers and now people use it freely like a badge of honour to be a Celt, not understanding that it’s meant as an insult because they have been indoctrinated to believe they are Celt.
