Written for Ray Grav, who'd asked Dafydd who write a song with the same feeling as Fields of Athenry. Remember singing these words alongside Munster supporters before the Heineken Cup quarter final at the great Stradey Park. They were so impressed at the Welsh version...
An old Irish song sounds even better in Welsh. Dafydd Iwan is an icon in Wales from the time he made fun of idiotic prince charles spending more time on his arse on the ground than in his saddle. He also had to change the original words he used about the "witch" old Maggie Thatcher to appease the "establishment"" in the song Yma o Hyd. What a crying shame, when the lyrics rang truer than the BREXIT DISASTER
