I used to sing this hymn as a child at school but this is the most beautiful version I have heard..Aled has a wonderful voice and the choir sounds like the heavenly chorus. Magnificent.
Came here because I thought it was gonna be the Cyndi Lauper song but was unexpectedly surprised and happy to find this instead. I remember it from my childhood. So peaceful!
Beautiful Welsh standard sung by Aled plus a full Welsh male voice choir and Libera. That's quite a line-up and it sounds wonderful. Thanks for posting.
Whenever Aled sings this song he always sings it part Welsh, part English. Even when he was a young boy. Without fail this song sends shivers down my spine. So beautifully sung.
I remember singing this song when I was in Junior School in The Rhondda.I would have been 9/10 years old. Every time I hear it takes me back to my childhood.
# 3 both my father and I had by this time (1973) had the Welsh kicked out of us! but in the RAMC officers mess one weekend he brought in all the Taffs and they sang Ar hyd y nos. For me! at 13
Absolutely stunning. Immediate chills

I love Welsh traditional hymns. This is splendid.

so beautiful... I always listen to this version when i can't sleep at night.
In memory of Uncle C who sent me this song from London in Xmas 2005.I miss you dearly.
It gave me shivers when they all started singing together and Libera's voices soared above the wonderful Welsh choir.

Great banter 10/10 ign
bBy far the best version with the two chiors siniging in harmony with Aled
fabulous
Brilliant
It IS sung in English, along with Welsh. Try listening again.
hijack, by jack
Yes its sung in Aled's native language "Welsh"..
Did you bother to listen til the second verse?
It's awful being a Taff as great music keeps you 'welling up' - diolch yn fawr, Aled!
It's not all in Welsh. Aled didn't speak English til he was 6 :)
Is this Gaelic?
Cymraeg
To clarify : It is Welsh - but
Aled Jones sings the 2nd verse in English.
It's Welsh. Related to Gaelic.
He switches to English at 1:23.
Second half IS in English.....
At about 2 minutes in he switches to English.

Would b good if it was in English but I liked it
