Y Teule necerrai y elera I

Dwi’ beth ydy Christos, Amen"The Day The Men Went To Catraeth"
The men went to Catraeth, riding with the dawn.
Three hundred against ten thousand,
Engaged in mutual overthrow.
Better had they gone to do penance,
Then ride to war that day.
The men went to Catraeth, riding with the dawn.
Ere the night was long, but never will they be forgotten,
Christ keeps them in his sight.
Owain, the golden haired charger,
On a brilliant steed of white,
With shield and spear he clove afar,
Showing all his endless might.
From dawn til dusk there seemed no end,
To this infernal fight.
From the field, none did return unscathed,
By fire and steel, blood painted the shield,
On that day none did yield.
The day the men went to Catraeth.
Oh Christ please keep men in your sight!
