Cytgan English translation of the original Welsh lyrics WHILE THERE ARE TWO The one who loves my heart Lives far from here, And longing to see her Made my colour gray. Chorus Wealth is but a vanity Purety does not last But the pure love, like steel lasts, While there are two From the beautiful choice that I choose My choice was a pure lass And before I’ll regret it The fire will freeze. My love is over the sea I hope that she is well I love the land where she walks From the core of my little heart. |
