(Beneath the Waters)

^
Dan y dwr, taweluch sydd Beneath the waters, it is silent
^
Dan y dwr, galwaf i Beneath the waters, I call you
^
Nid yw'r swm gyda fi There is no company with me.

^
Dan y dwr, taweluch an byth Beneath the waters, silence for ever,
^
Dan y dwr, galwaf i Beneath the waters, I call you.
^
Nid yw'r swm ddim fwy gyda fi. The sound is no longer with me.

quot;Beneath the waters... the village Capel Celyn. This village in Wales was submerged, against much protest and struggle by its inhabitants, in order to accomodate a resevoir. This is a lament for the loss of Capel Celyn, memories now held beneath the water. quot; (From the liner notes on the re-release of _The Celts_)
