That man is so proud Heart and soul the young Welsh kids puts England to sham 😢 I am 80 years old veteran from Australia Our song we are Australia England have nothing left
Wow, I don't even understand Welsh, but he and the entire audience sing with such passion that they convey something beautiful to me that I can't explain in words.
The tears welling up in this Welsh hero while he sings brings goosebumps to me everytime! Such a passionate singer! You can tell he means every word he sings ❤️🏴🏴
I mean it's not hard to see why. He wrote this in the 80s, when Welsh was dying and Thatcher was ravaging the country. It's optimistic in outlook alright, but it's a desperate and defiant optimism, written during bad times to inspire resilience. I don't think he would have imagined then in his wildest dreams how big this song would get and how much it would come to mean to the people. The passion and enthusiasm with which this is sung today is one hell of a way to prove the lyrics of the song right. Welsh will forever survive, and that's a beautiful thing. I don't speak it, but am planning to learn it as soon as I got fluent in Irish (I live in Belfast, so there is another Celtic language to be saved from Anglo supremacy - but, just like the Welsh, we are still here)
As a monoligual English speaker this is my absolute favourite "foreign language" song! May the Welsh language survive and thrive! This song seems to be the new theme song for those who believe in Welsh independence! God bless all the all the Celtic languages!
Salute from Malaysia. What a song. Lovely to see even the young has caught on and sing this song with passion. What a great revival of the Welch language. Looking forward to the Welch supporters singing their hearts out at the football World Cup - win or lose. What a venue to introduce this song.
I'm from the Netherlands and I interviewed someone from Wales. She mentioned Eisteddfod. I looked it up later and came across this. Goosebumps all over...
I don't understand anything about it but I liked the passion shown by the artist, I watched several different videos, and I also liked the way the people gathered when they sang this song.
As a proud Welshman exiled in Australia magnificent to see toddlers singing the verses in Welsh - no wonder he was crying as a champion of the Welsh language - Cymru am Byth
Dwi'n cymryd bydd DI yng ngorymdaeth Annibyniaeth y 1af o Hydref yng Ngaerdydd. (Mae ym Merthyr y noson gynt ac ar y noson). 10,000+ ohonom yn canu 'Yma o Hyd'. Fe fydd yn wych!
The Eisteddfod is generally a celebration of youth abilities away from sport (literature, poetry and song), so there will be lots of pobl bach there. Yma o Hyd

Proud to be Welsh and this song says it all
Great to see him still at it and still so popular. Fond memories

This is Cymru's second national anthem!
As Scarlets fan, should Sospan Fach be joint, after all, we beat The All Blacks (albeit 3 generations ago!)?
Dihafal! Diolch am yr ysbryd Dafydd!
Different class from Scotland 🏴🏴🇮🇪Celtic nations stand strong.
Totally agree
Don't forget Mannin, Kernow and Breizh too, OP! (Isle of Mann, Cornwall and Brittany) But yeah, Celtic nations stand strong!

Totally agree get the young people singing
Braf braf i weld pobol ifanc yn canu a chofleidio'r gan a'r dyfodol.. Mae'r frwydr yn dal i fynd yn ei blaen..
Cytuno yn llwyr!
Hollol -- mae gwych i weld a gwrando! Dwi'n teimlo hapus mwy pobl siarad y iath hardd!
Dwi'n cymryd bydd DI yng ngorymdaeth Annibyniaeth y 1af o Hydref yng Ngaerdydd. (Mae ym Merthyr y noson gynt ac ar y noson). 10,000+ ohonom yn canu 'Yma o Hyd'. Fe fydd yn wych!
That was just pure class
Dyma'r tro cyntaf i fi weld Dafydd Iwan yn Crio a'r y llwyfan. Mae'n amlwg fod y gân a'i ystyr yn grif yn ei Galon.
Turning out to be my fav song off all time now and that speaks volumes from a midge Ure / ultravox fan, awesome tune .
Canu Dafydd canu!
Annibyniaeth rŵan!
We are still here. I hope this Deccade don't end the thousands of years of our resilience xxxxxx
Love the Welsh

and yet they voted
with the ENGLISH, for BREXIT ??
To be honest it's getting a bit to much
Why?
Mabe for you, you don't have to be here
Pam? Oes well gen ti "God Save The Queen"?. Da ni di clywed digon am honno ers 70 mlynedd. Di hynni yn ormod i'ch di?
Gareth Young and old singing in their native tongue, brilliant
faint o bobl oedd yn trafferthu dysgu ein hiaith mewn gwirionedd faint o bobl ddywedodd nad ydw i'n gwneud Cymraeg yn yr Ysgol
Wow, I don't even understand Welsh, but he and the entire audience sing with such passion that they convey something beautiful to me that I can't explain in words.
