My daffodil, my leek, my love
My asphodel, she-dragon, you
Are green of all below, above
Including Eistedfoddau too
When, coming up inside the lift
Leaving the coalface for the day
I set my cares and woe adrift
And after showering I’m on my way
To see my Rose, my dear Welsh Rose
Queen of the valleys and my heart
I pray the pit will never close
And we will never never part
I brought a gift, my love, my soul:
A couple of hundred weight of coal!
