A nice castle at Harlech and a very nice song sung by the Welsh singers too.Originally Posted by Arthur Little
Haven't yet had the pleasure of visiting Wales ... far less climbing Snowdon. But I do recall the four concluding lines of a song we had been taught in our music class at school, around 60 years ago.
Set to the popular Welsh marching tune, 'Men of Harlech', they were as follows:
"Tramp up Snowdon
With your woad (war paint) on,
Ne~er mind if you're rained or snow'd on.
Never need a button sewed on;
Go it ancient B's!"
B's, of course, being an abbreviation for Britons.
