Hi
Would anyone know the name of this Welsh hymn/song/duet from a 1986 Dechrau Canu, Dechrau Canmol programme??

Even better would be the words in English but that would be a bonus !
TIA Sussexlad

I don't know it and my Welsh is sketchy at best but I recognise a few words:
pwy sy'n rhoi yr blodau? - Who gives the flowers?
... hardd a glan - beautiful and clean
pwy sy'n anfon haulwen - who sends sunshine?
pwy sy'n gynnu'r gwynt - Who raises the wind?

Neb ond duw - Nobody but God

Many thanks for talking the trouble to explain those words. At least it gives me a favour of what's going on. I'm not religious but for some reason this simple kind of performance just strikes a chord. Cheers.

Just to tidy this thread up, this information came from the Welsh Hymn Society @ http://www.emynau.org/ which was given to me by the TV channel S4C. Just goes to demonstrate the usefulness of the internet !

Who gives the flowers fair and lovely clothing?
Who gives the birds the sweet music of their song?
None but God himself, he is at the helm;
we must praise him, he is so wonderful.

Who sends sunshine to us from yonder?
Who drives the winds and sends rain?
None but God himself ...

Who governs the ebb and flow of the sea?
Who brings blessings daily to our door?
None but God himself ...

Who wants us to grow beautiful and healthy?
Who can listen to the cry of every little child?
None but God himself ....

Words S. Idris Evans Sung to the tune 'Lisa' by June Lloyd Jones
