Shold we see a another surge in Welsh nationalism again?Is it time for Welsh independence?
Have we been waiting to long,a country calls,a last cry for independence.To long have we been cheated,chewed up and spat on.Its time for a new start,so should Wales claim its independence?
Who is Cymru’s enemy?
Not Germany, nor Spain,
Nor Russia, Serbia, Iraq -
They forged for her no chain,
Nor quenched her hearths,
Nor razed her homes,
Nor laid her altars low,
Nor sent her sons to tramp the hills amid the winter snow!
Who spiked the head of Cymru’s Prince
One drear December dawn?
While round it howled in fury
The devil's hungry spawn?
And mocked it with an ivy crown
On London’s Tower Gate
And butchered helpless Cymric babes,
The lust for blood to sate?
Who spread from Gwent to Ynys Môn,
The glare of midnight fires?
And scourged the land in rabid wrath
And tortured aged sires.
Who scourged our land throughout the years
Spread torture far and wide,
Till Cymru shrieked in woe and tears,
And h**l seemed fair beside?
Who plied the Welsh-Not and the sword
The gibbet and the rack?
O God! that we should ever fail
To pay the b******s back!
Who ridiculed the noble Nine
Who fought to save our name
Amidst the shame of ’69,
And played its evil game?
Who shattered many a Cymric home
With dreaded midnight call,
And broke the loyal patriot hearts
Of those who’d give their all?
Who caused the Abergele Two
To fight at dawn of day,
And strike a blow for liberty
And all who died as they?
Who drowned Tryweryn’s ancient homes
With avaricious lust
Who smothered Cymru’s innocents
Of Aberfan with dust?
Not Germany, Afghanistan,
Russia, Iraq nor Spain
They did not strip this land of ours,
Or forge her shameful chain;
But England of the cunning words –
A crafty, treacherous foe –
'Twas England scourged our motherland,
'Twas England laid her low!
Rise up, Rise up Oh Cymric dead!
And rouse her living men;
The chance is come to us at last
To win our own again;
To sweep the English enemy
From mountain, vale, and bay,
And in your name, oh splendid dead!
Our sacred debt to pay
