Gwyn’s ballad

I would take you to the seashore,
My heart, my love,
And make you a crown of pearls.
I would take you to the seashore,
To see you smile again.

I would take you to the seashore,
My heart, my love,
To see the waves carress the sand,
I would take you to the seashore,
To kiss you freely again.

I would take you to the seashore,
My heart, my love,
To see the sunlight on the water,
I would take you to the seashore
To hear your voice again.

I would take you to the seashore,
My heart, my love,
To hear the mermaids sing,
I would take you to the seashore
To stroke your silken hair.

I would take you to the seashore,
My heart, my love,
To make you remember the truth,
I would take you to the seashore,
To set you free at last.

I will take you to the seashore,
My heart, my love,
To sweep you off your feet,
I will take you to the seashore,
To marry you by the sea.

Hear me, cariad,and come to me,
Come to the one who waits,
Hear my voice, and remember me,
Creiddylad, maiden fair!
