Pan o’wn y gwanwyn ar uchelfryn,
Yn gwylio’r defaid gyda’r wyn,
Clywn lais fy nghariad ber ei chaniad,
Yn seinio’n llawen yn y llwyn;
Oedd gwawr llawenydd ar ei deurudd
O mor hardd ei lliw a’i llun,
A minnau’n syllu, ac ymhyfrydu,
Gan hardded hwyl fy annwyl fun.
When I was in springtime on a high hill,
Watching the sheep with their lambs.
I heard the voice of my beloved - so pure her song -
Ringing merrily in the grove,
Was that a blush of happiness dawning on her cheeks?
Oh, so beautiful her colour, her picture,
And there was I, gazing, enraptured,
At the happy beauty of my dear one

Songs traditional and contemporary from England, Wales and France ... two voices in harmony, with guitar, octave mandola, laud and bowed psaltery
Blanche Rowen & Mike Gulston recommends:
Fishe or Fowle
by Kate Fletcher & Corwen Broch
An outstanding album by two very lovely and talented people. I played this until I nearly wore it out. If you like varied material, old and new, with a range of strange instruments, this is for you.

Y Mabinogi - The Second Branch
by Damh the Bard
All of Damh's work is great; his Mabinogi albums are a superb retelling of this ancient saga brought to life with new songs. I've picked the Second Branch as I had the honour to sing Branwen's lament.

Raining in Paradise
by Metheglin
Before we both joined the band, Mike guested extensively on this CD, and Blanche chanted mediævally on one track. Raining In Paradise is a masterpiece of layered beauty - exquisite ambient-prog-folk.
