I'm not sure how this one will go down tbh. This is the only song I've written up until now completely in Welsh.
I guess it might well be a difficult listen and put some off, but hey....it's a song, and I've written it, so I'll give it a go here.
I'll genuinely find the feedback interesting.
The title translates to Don't Forget Me, but the lyrics shown aren't translated, so you may be able to follow by word.
(There's punctuation missing as the language/keyboard/dictionary doesn't allow it)

Lle mae'r amser wedi mynd?
Dwi'm yn cofio
Dwi di colli chdi hen ffrind
Mewn cymylau
Oedd yr haul yn boeth uwchben?
Oedd yr awyr yn las?
Cerfiadau sydd yn y pren
O dy enw di

Paid a colli ffydd I gyd
Dalia at yr atgafodi
Dweda nhw "Da'n ni yma o hyd"
Ond fedra I'm diodda hyn
Lle mae'r llwybr lle mae'r lon
Sy'n dangos y golau?
Paid a byth ac edrych yn ol
Ar y gorffenol

Paid anghofio fi
Amserion caethom ni
Paid anghofio fi
Cofia ein cyfan byd

Edrycha ar y lleuad gwyn
Yn gwenu arnat ti
Lle mae'r cariad wedi mynd?
I'r cymylau
Gwela'r llwybr gwela'r lon
Yng ngola lloer o arian
Paid a byth ac edrych yn ol
Ar y gorffenol

Paid anghofio fi
Amserion caethom ni
Paid anghofio fi
Cofia ein cyfan byd

Can't really comment on the lyrics, but the audio on the song is extremely powerful and ultra-competent.  Very catchy and memorable.

Welcome to the forum Steve :) This track is very well produced and it doesn't really matter that I don't understand the lyrics  :)
The vocals are beautiful and the backing track is really interesting. Did you record and produce this yourself? It's very well done, especially
if it's your first song :o Keep them coming

Thank you. Yes, I record and produce everything in my small spare bedroom. I call it 'Stiwdio Lloft Ffrynt' just for laughs.....which means Small Front-bedroom Studio :)
Thank you again for your comments
