W:1.Black was his plume, black was his shield,
W:Braver ne'er did fauchion wield;
W:Show'rs of shafts would rattle
W:Round him in the battle,
W:Yet he knew not how to yield.
W:When a gallant foe lay conquer'd on the plain,
W:Mercy from Sir Harry he ne'er asked in vain;
W:Constant to his friends, whate'er the cost he proved.
W:None more faithful lived and loved.
W:
W:2.Ay! though when he proudly went past,
W:Sparkled many a lady's eye,
W:Through that starry shower,
W:To his dear one's bower
W:He but made the fonder haste.
W:Long the bard shall sing the praises of his fame,
W:And in deathless verse preserve his noble name:
W:Black Sir Harry, with the dark and sparkling eye,
W:Like our song shall never die!
W:
W:1.Du oedd ei bryd a'i dar-ian gref,
W:Ni bu dewrach dan y bef;
W:Er i'r saethau chwyrnu yn g&acirc;d o'i ddeutu,
W:Anorchfygol ydoedd ef.
W:Llef y gorchfyfedig nid yn ofer bu,
W:Am gael gwen trvgaredd gan Syr Harri Ddu;
W:Ffyddlon i'w gyfeillion oedd hyd angeu erch,
W:Ni bu neb mwy pur mewn serch.
W:
W:2.Mewn llawer llys, gan faint ei swyn,
W:Ocheneidia'r merched mwyn;
W:Gydag, iaith y galon
W:Cabai i'w gariadon
W:Odlau serch mewn llawer llwyb.
W:Awen b&ecirc;r y bardd a fythol g&acirc;n ei glod
W:Ac mewn didranc gerdd ei enw byth gaiff fod:
W:Bydd Syr Harri guda'r llygaid llawn o d&acirc;n,
W:Yn anfarwol fel ein c&acirc;n. Edited By masato sakurai - 20-Oct-2004 01:45:27 PM Preview: User name: Enter password: Link makerPlease read our notes on posting html.Contact us
