No diversions attend me,
Nor fair women visit me.
Though at Arderydd I wore a golden torque
The swan-white woman despises me now.

— Myrddin Wyllt

Nym gogaun guarvy. nym goffvy gorterch.
Ac igueith aryw derit. oet eur. wy gorthorch.
Kin buyf. aelav hetiv gan eiliv eleirch.

More quotes by Myrddin Wyllt

Listen, little pig!
I lack sleep,
Such a tumult of grief is within me.
Fifty years of pain I have endured.

Listen, little pig,
Are not the thorn buds green
The mountain fair, the earth beautiful?

Victorious Cymry, glorious their leaders,
All shall have their rights again,
All Britons rejoice, sounding joyful horns,
Chanting songs of happiness and peace!

Afallen pen. blodev essplit.
Atiff inargel in argoydit.

Fifty years the plaything of lawless men
I have wandered in gloom among spirits.
After great wealth, and gregarious minstrels,
I have been here so long not even sprites
Can lead me astray.
