Pais Dinogad
This is my interpretation of the ancient lullaby found in the book of Gododdyn. This song is thought to be 1400 years old, so the Welsh language used is quite difficult to understand. It’s speaks of the young Dinogad in his speckled smock of pine marten, and how his father has just gone off hunting and whistling, taking with him 8 slaves. He calls orders to his hunting dogs, Giff and Gaff.
He hunts fish, he hunts like a killer. A mighty lion. It tells of his travels across the lands and up mountains over many days, and this section of the song gives us hints of the origin of the song. It tells of Derwynydd, or Derwent, among other places, locating this tale in North England when it still had a Welsh speaking culture. Boar, lynx and deer are not safe from him, nor any creature less it has wings to fly away. This reference also updates the date that lynx are to have gone extinct in the uk. Here’s the lyrics in Old Middle Welsh. I hope you enjoy. :)
Pais Dinogad, fraith fraith,
O grwyn balaod ban wraith.
Chwid, Chwid, chwidogaeth!
Gochanwn, gochenyn wythgaith.
Pan elai dy dad di i helia,
Llath ar ei ysgwydd, llory yn ei law,
Ef gelwi gwn gogyhwg:
'Giff, gaff, daly, daly, dwg, dwg!'
Ef lleddi bysg yng nghorwg
Mal ban lladd llew llywiwg.
Pan elai dy dad di i fynydd
Dyddygai ef pen i wrch, pen gwythwch, pen hydd,
Pen grugiar fraith o fynydd,
Pen pysg o Rhaeadr Derwennydd.
O'r sawl yd gyrhaeddai dy dad di a'i gigwain,
O wythwch a llewyn a llynain,
Nid angai oll ni fai oradain.

As it has been a year and a day since I launched Sacred Knot Tattoo, I wanted to make this video to celebrate all of the work I’ve been lucky enough to undertake in this time. As you can probably tell, this video has been put together in a bit of a hurry..but it gets the message across, I hope. These are most of the results from tattoo sessions from this year (I'm sorry if I missed anyone out, ...

A lovely video projected onto the wall at the ship museum about the life cycle of a Viking ship that ended up in a burial mound.
I'm saving this so I can listen again and again. Could you please tell us about that instrument you're playing?

Sung in old Welsh. Oldest lullaby known from Albion
ai crwth yw hwna?/ is that a crwth?
This is stunningly beautiful. Thank you so much for putting it up
My language skills are close to zero - still struggling with Icelandic - but I would love to try singing this. If anyone would be kind enough to correct what I have scrached together from Google I would be very grateful. Saetll og blessuth! M. Pais Dinogad, fraith, fraith, o grwyn balaod ban wraith. Chwid! Chwid! Chwidogaith. Gochanwn, gochenyn - wythgaith. Pan elei dy dat ty e helya; llath ar y ysgwyd llory eny law ef gelwi gwn gogyhwc. Giff, gaff! Dhaly, dhaly! Dhwg, dhwg! Ef lledi bysc yng corwc mal ban llad. llew llywywg! Pan elei dy dat ty e vynyd dydygai, penn ywrch, penn gwythwch, pen hyd, penn grugyar vreith o venyd, penn pysc o rayadyr Derwennyd. Or sawl yt gyrhaedei dy dat ty ae gicwein - O wythwch, a llewyn, a llwyuein - nyt anghei oll ny uei oradein.
Superb work, truly outstanding. The world needs more of this. Happy New Year! M.D.P.
Beautiful! Thank you!
Cool
Really superb rendition
In this lullaby it mentions the lynx well the lynx was extinct by the 5th century so this is really old maybe even before the arrival of the romans
I listen to this often. It is beyond sublime and absolutely beautiful. Please record more!
Lovely! I salute you for keeping up our glorious past!
