From Grasses Bright and Bracken Light (Poem)

Pin It

fairy girl

From grasses bright, and bracken light,

Come, sweet companions, come,

The full moon shines, the sun declines

We’ll spend the night in fun;

With playful mith, we’ll trip the earth,

To meadows green let’s go.

We’re full of joy, without alloy,

Which mortals may not know.

O’r glaswellt glan a’r rhedyn man,

Gyfeillion dyddan dewch

E ddarfu’r nawn-mae’ lloer yn llawn,

Y nos yn gyflawn gewch;

O’r chwarau sydd ar dwyn y dydd,

I’r dolydd awn ar daith,

Nyni sydd lon, ni chaiff gerbron,

Farwolion ran o’n gwaith
