See the enemy. Kindle the vigour
Of the Merioneth men, all to cry,
Wales be for ever !
Go the cry, and go the prayer.
To each corner of our highly honoured
land,
'Till Snowden re-echoes,
Wales be for ever !
Peasants, soldiers, suddenly
Let us rush on the enemy ;
Let us drive him, flying from brook,
And hill, and glen, and vale.
Let us wave the banner of victory ;
Let us rejoice in his wailing ;
The cry of our victory shall be heard,
Wales be for ever !
