    A phonetic writing of it, for those who are struggling and don't speak Welsh:
    Hlan-vayr, poohl guin gihl, goger u khueern drob-oohl, hlantus-ilio, gogo-gokh
    The "hl" sound is when you act like you're about to make an "l" sound, then you sort of hiss/blow air past your tongue, THEN do the "l". And "kh" is like German "ch" (i.e. "Bach", or Arabic "kh" (i.e. "khubz").
