Diolch i pawb nath dod i lawnsiad "Weithiau Mae'n Anodd" neithiwr yn y Braich Coch. Hefyd diolch i'r band: Rolando, Gareth, Spiv, ac i'n gwestai spesial, Ailsa Mair Fox a Cerys Hafana (ie, THE Cerys Hafana, off y radio). Mi nathom ni neud "Afon", "Mari Lwyd" a "Cadw Ffydd" yn hollol acwstig gyda'r soddgrwth a'r delyn, a roedd nhw'n swnio'n wych.

Mae'r gân "Weithiau Mae'n Anodd" wedi'i hysbrydoli gan gyfnod lle roeddem ni’n trio gwneud bywyd a bywoliaeth yn Llundain, a’r holl draferthion a methiant wnaeth ddod gyda hynny.

Mae'r fideo anhygoel wedi cael eu creu gan ein chwaer talentog iawn, Ciara.

Thank you to everyone who came to the launch of "Weithiau Mae'n Anodd" last night in the Braich Coch. Also, thank you to our band, Rolando, Gareth and Spiv, and to our special guests Ailsa Mair Fox and Cerys Hafana (yes, THE Cerys Hafana, off of the radio). We did "Afon", "Mari Lwyd" and "Cadw Ffydd" completely acoustically with the cello and the harp, and they sounded great.

The song "Weithiau Mae'n Anodd" is based on our past experiences of disfunctionally trying to make a life in London.

This excellent music video was created by our talented sister, Ciara.

Diolch, Ciara! xxx

Geiriau/lyrics:

Weithau mae’n anodd yn y ddinas Does neb yn gwybod bod ti’n genius Cyflwr arianol eitha serius Weithiau mae’n anodd bod, weithiau mae’n anodd bod

Pobpeth yn neud o i deimlon anghyffordus Pan mae’n cerdded lawr y stryd, gweiddi ar y byd pawb yn gweld o, pawb yn dechrau chwerthyn Sgeny fo ddim cliw, Doesn’t know what to do

Woah woah oh oh, Ar goll yn Llundain Oh ohhh, Well ganddo fo fyw yn Sbain Woah oh oh oh, hipsters yn mhobman mae’n strummio tan yr oriau man Ond does neb yn gwrando ar ei gan

Wastad yn rhedeg y tu ol i’r gweddill Dyle fo ffeindio swydd go iawn 'Di gitar ddim yn swydd go iawn

Ar ol y cyngherdd cyfarfod lot o ferched Ond di nhw byth yn tecstio fo 'nol He’s got no hope at all

Woah oh oh oh, Y byd ma yn greulon woah ohh, Dinistr yn yr amazon woah woah, Preocupation mae’r amazon i gyd ar dan A neb yn gwrando ar ei gan

Weithau mae’n anodd yn y dinas Does neb yn gwybod bod ti’n genius Cyflwr arianol eitha serius Weithiau mae’n anodd bod, weithiau mae’n anodd bod

Mae ganddo freuddwyd, rhywbeth anghyffredin Yr unig cwestiwn yw beth sy’n digwydd wedyn

I fod yn hapus be' mae pobl angen? Rhywle neis i byw a dipyn bach o rhyw- -beth sy’n fwy na hyn mwy na strydoedd du a gwyn Mynadd wedi droi yn brin Dim dewis 'wan mae’n raid iddo fynd

Translation:

Sometimes it's hard in the city Nobody knows that you're a genius Financial situation is quite serious Sometimes it's hard to be, sometime's it's hard to be

everything makes him, feel uncomfortable When he's walking down the street, shouting at the world Everyone sees him, everyone starts laughing He doesn't have a clue, Doesn’t know what to do

Woah woah oh oh, lost in London Oh ohhh, he'd rather live in Spain Woah oh oh oh, hipsters everywhere he's strumming til the early hours but no one's listening to his song

Always running behind the rest He should find a real job Guitar isn't a real job

After the concert, he meets a lot of girls But they never text him back He’s got no hope at all

Woah oh oh oh, this world is cruel woah ohh, destruction in the amazon woah woah, Preocupation the amazon is all on fire and no-one's listening to his song

Sometimes it's hard in the city Nobody knows that you're a genius Financial situation is quite serious Sometimes it's hard to be, sometime's it's hard to be

He's got a dream, something unusual The only question is what happens next?

To be happy, what do people need? Somewhere nice to live and a little bit of some sex - thing that's more than this, more than streets of black and white Patience is wearing thin (literally, "has turned/become rare") No choice, he's got to go!
