Feast of Saint David of Wales

The Welsh hymn to be sung at my funeral

My penn'orth I'll offer for a soul in prison,

My candle I'll offer in the church in the vale,

The Mass I'll pray earnestly, seven times seven,

To save his immortal soul. O Mary.

St. Paul and St. Peter, all the saints of heaven,

And Mary, God's Mother, plead strongly,

That he may have peace and dear liberty,

Paradise open, and the arms of his Father.

Mother of Jesus, the fairest of earth's women,

Maidenly Queen of all of the heavens,

Lovely lily of the valley, worthy rose of heaven,

Intercede in fervour for the soul of my friend.

O Mary, O Mary.

Fy hatling offrymaf dros enaid dan glo,

Fy nghanwyll offrymaf yn eglwys y fro,

'R offeren weddïaf saith seithwaith yn daer

Er cadw ei enaid anfarwol.

Myn Mair.

Sant Pawl a Sant Peder, holl seintiau y nef,

A Mair, Mam y Duwdod, eiriolwch yn gref

Dros iddo gael heddwch a gwerthfawr ryddhad,

Paradwys agored, a breichiau ei Dad.

Mam Iesu'r brydferthaf o ferched y byd,

Morwynig Frenhines y nefoedd i gyd,

Dlos lili y dyffryn, gwiw rosyn y nef,

Eiriola dros enaid fy nghyfaill yn gref.

Myn Mair, Myn Mair.
