Lyrics and the english Translation
Mynd Drot Drot
Mynd drot drot ar y gaseg wen,
Mynd drot drot i'r dre,
Mam yn dod yn ôl dros fryn a dôl
A rhywbeth neis neis i de.
Teisen i Bil, a banana i Sil,
A thamaid i'r gath a'r ci,
Afal mawr iach i Ben y gwas bach
A rhywbeth neis neis i mi
Going trot trot on the white mare; Going trot trot to town. Mother comes back over hill and meadow With something really nice for tea! A cake for Sil A banana for Bil And something for the cat and dog. A wholesome apple for Ben the little servant-boy And something really nice for me!
