Lyrics & Translation:
Title: Telyn aur y Tylwyth Teg (The Golden Harp of the Fair Folk)

Verse 1:
Mae'r nos yn disgyn dros y mynydd du,
A'r lleuad yn ei hanner lliw;
Mae sŵn y telyn yn y coed,
Yn galw i deulu'r Tylwyth Teg.

The night is falling over the black mountain,
And the moon in its half-light;
The sound of a harp is in the woods,
Calling to the family of the Tylwyth Teg.

Chorus:
O, canu, canu, dan y sêr,
Cyfaredd yw ei chân o hyd;
O, canu, canu, drwy'r nos hir,
Nes daw y wawr dros fryniau'r byd.

O, singing, singing, under the stars,
Her song is still enchantment;
O, singing, singing, through the long night,
Until the dawn comes over the hills of the world.

Verse 2:
Mae'r corachod yn dawnsio'n llon,
Ar lawnt y llyn dan olau'r lloer;
Mae gwýn y nefoedd yn eu llygaid clir,
A'u traed yn rhydd ar frig y grug.

The dwarves/elves are dancing merrily,
On the lawn by the lake under the moonlight;
The joy of heaven is in their clear eyes,
And their feet are free on the top of the heather.

Verse 3:
Mae mamau'n galw ar eu plant,
O fewn y tai â'u ffenestri'n cau;
Ond eto mae'r telyn fach yn galw,
I blant y llwyn i ddod i chwarae.

Mothers are calling their children,
Inside the houses with their windows closing;
But still the little harp calls,
To the children of the grove to come and play.

Verse 4:
Pan ddaw y wawr i'r mynydd mawr,
A'r gân yn distewi yn y glaw;
Bydd pawb yn chwarae yn y goedwig fach,
Nes delo'r nos a'i thelyn aur.

When the dawn comes to the great mountain,
And the song falls silent in the rain;
Everyone will be playing in the little woodland,
Until the night and its golden harp return.

Outro:
Telyn aur y Tylwyth Teg,
Yn canu yn y nos;
Telyn aur y Tylwyth Teg,
Yn aros amdanom ni.

Golden harp of the Tylwyth Teg,
Singing in the night;
Golden harp of the Tylwyth Teg,
Waiting for us.

The Story Behind The Song:
The Tylwyth Teg (literally "the Fair Family") are the central figures of Welsh folklore. They are not necessarily benevolent; their enchanting music is often a lure. The song perfectly captures this duality: the beauty of the dancing elves under the moon, contrasted with the worried mothers closing their windows. It's a warning and a seduction, a lullaby and a tale of mystery. The repeating chorus speaks to the irresistible, timeless "cyfaredd" (enchantment) of their song, which continues "nes daw y wawr" (until the dawn)—the traditional time when fairy magic fades.
