I have always found that song the most rousing and powerful, even if you don't know the Welsh and the meaning you can get it. And once you know it, it's even more powerful. And very applicable to many other nations who are sadly opressed.

My Mom's side of the family is from Wales, and it's the side I know the best and identify most closely with. It's so great that the Welsh language is being reinvigorated in Wales!
Seems to be about burning English second homes in Wales, which used to be a big thing, and I could totally understand the anger of communities destroyed by rich English people who didn't even live there.
