lyrics

PILI PALA

Ti fel Pili Pala
Dwi’n gadael i chdi fynd
Achos ti angen tyfu
A nei di’m tyfu yma ‘fo fi
Agor dy adenydd
Hedfan lle ti angen
Fydd y pentre ‘ma dal yma
Os ti isho dod yn ôl.

CHORUS
Cariad, o cariad
Sud all fod yn byr pan mae’n llawn perchnogaeth
Cariad, Cariad
Y celwydd oedd fod ‘na mond un
Cariad, o cariad
Gymaint o rheolau a disgwyliadau
Cariad, cariad
Cariad yw y weithred ti yn neud yn ddyddiol.

Ti fel pili pala
Yn lliwgar ac yn rhydd
Paid meddwl dwy waith
‘Dos I weld y byd
Dwi’n dy garu di
Ond cariad ydi rhyddid
Swni methu byw ‘fo fy hyn
Yn gwbod nes i dy ddal di nôl.

Dwi fel Pili Pala
Diolch i ti am y gofod
Mewn bywyd arall
Swni dal yn lindys bach
Yn sownd ‘na efo chdi
Swydd naw tan bump
O leiaf dau o blant
Ag ella ‘sa ni’n hapus
(Ag ella sa ni ddim).

BUTTERFLY
You are like a Butterfly
and I’m letting you go
Because you need to grow
And you won’t grow here with me
Open your wings
Fly where you desire
This village will still be here
If you want to come back.

CHORUS
Love, oh love
How can it be pure, when it’s full of ownership?
Love, Love
The lie was that there’s only one
Love, oh love
So many rules and expectations
Love, love
Love is the action that you do daily.

You are like a butterfly
Colorful and free
Don't think twice
Go to see the world
I love you
But freedom is love
I couldn’t live with myself
Knowing that I had held you back.

I'm like a Butterfly
Thank you for giving me space
In another life
I’d still be a small caterpillar
Stuck there with you
A nine to five job
At least two children
And maybe we’d be happy
(But maybe we wouldn’t).
