Welsh poem
Q: Rowena, formerly from Mold: "When my daughter was at primary school she learnt a charming Welsh poem which started "Mae gen i gath", I think it means my little cat in English, and it talks of the cat's moods and how the cat must be forgiven (for hunting etc). Can anyone put it on the site for us, so we can keep a copy of it in its Welsh form? Hope so, thanks."

I have discovered whilst doing my family history, that my great great x8 grandfather was an Edward Morus from Perthi Llwydion in Cerrig y Drudion and he was also a famous poet in the 1600s. Does anyone know any information about this man?

Mae Gen I
Mae gen i iâr sy'n hedfan
Yn gyflym fel y gwynt,
Mae gen i sgidiau rhedeg
A gostiodd chwe chan punt.
Mae gen i gôt sy'n sychu
Yng nghanol storom law,
Mae gen i frawd sy'n gallu
Lladd teigr ag un llaw.
Mae gen i beiriant adref
Sy'n chwarae mil CD,
Mae gen i gi Alsesian
Sydd nawr yn gant a thri.
Mae gen i gath sy'n nofio,
A hynny rownd y byd...
Mae gen i feddwl hefyd
Sy'n gelwydd noeth i gyd!
