Branwen Slayne lyrics

O my dear brother I am damnified at Caer Siddi
For mine husband hath this twelfmonth treated me with cruelty
Albe to please thee I didst cheerfully accept his proffred hand
I was ne`er wary he was ruler of y Uffern land
For when his gastful subjects they didst first espy hir friendless Queen
Eftsoone they wept for I to them was noughte but a living thing
Hence with despight his consorted kingdoms stony heart eshewde
And I am thrall`d to sufferance in poverty and servitude

For I am one of three great queens of the Cymry

Loneliness
Patience
Wisdom
Happiness

O my brother thou art King of y Island o the Mighty
Alfeare of thy rage hath placed silent sentinels at Caer Siddi
Ynow for bane or worse that may betide I send my gentle bird
Whilst I bemoan mine outcast state tho hold my tongues unthrifty word
There mew`d within its tamed wing mine urgent message pleads thine aid
Battalious make thy complement and rescue this most piteous maid
Herein this underwourldly gloom I implore thee to appear
And carry me to Aber Alaw for I am buried there

Loneliness
Patience
Wisdom
Happiness

Unigrwydd
Amynedd
Doethineb
Llavenydd

For I am one of three who broke their hearts in grief
