Cerys Matthews – Calon Lan lyrics
Nid wy'n gofyn bywyd moethus,
Aur y byd na'I berlau mân:
Gofyn wyf am galon hapus,
Calon onest, calon lân.

Calon lân yn llawn daioni,
Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:
Dim ond calon lân all ganu
Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos.

Pe dymunwn olud bydol,
Hedyn buan ganddo sydd;
Golud calon lân, rinweddol,
Yn dwyn bythol elw fydd
.

Calon lân yn llawn daioni,
Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:
Dim ond calon lân all ganu
Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos.

Hwyr a bore fy nymuniad
Gwyd I'r nef ar adain cân
Ar I Dduw, er mwyn fy Ngheidwad,
Roddi I mi galon lân.

Calon lân yn llawn daioni,
Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:
Dim ond calon lân all ganu
Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos.

    Why does it say it's by Cerys Matthews? This is a very old and traditional Welsh hymn and certainly isn't by her. We learn it in School and it gets sung at weddings and stuff. It's beautiful but I definitely have more appreciation for it as an adult than I did when we used to have to sing it in "gwasanaeth" as a child.

    I am montee domingo from the western part philippines down south. I have never heard the song neither understand every line of it. But the melody and the strength of the song moved me and touched my heart. It was only after 2 months where I finally searched the lyrics of it. Then I had goose bumps upon knowing what the song means. God bless the pure heart. Muchas gracias only boys aloud. You make me proud.

    I am welsh and proud.
    On bgt I think that boys aloud are going to win because of this amazing song thank you ever so much cerys mathews come on only boys aloud do us proud! By the way this is what calon lan means.
    I don't ask for a luxurious life,.
    The world's gold or its fine pearls:.
    I ask for a happy heart,.
    An honest heart, a pure heart.
    Chorus:.
    A pure heart is full of goodness,.
    More lovely than the pretty lily:.
    Only a pure heart can sing -
    Sing day and night.
    If I wished worldly wealth,.
    He has a swift seed;.
    The riches of a virtuous, pure heart,.
    Will be a perpetual profit.
    Late and early, my wish.
    Rise to heavan on the wing of song,.
    To god, for the sake of my saviour,.
    Give me a pure heart.
