When a Dutch friend sent me some silly phrases in Welsh about Owen and his parsnips from the Duolingo Welsh course, I was inspired to write this song in July 2021.
Pan mi anfonodd ffrind o'r Iseldiroedd rhyw ymadroddion gwirion yn Gymraeg am Owen a'i bannas o gwrs Cymraeg ar Duolingo, mi ges i fy ysbridoli i sgwennu'r gân ma.
Cyrfa
O lle mae pannas Owen?
Lle mae pannas Owen?
Lle mae pannas Owen?
Does neb yn gwybod.
Ydyn nhw yn y gegin?
Ydyn nhw efo'r dewin?
Ydyn nhw yn y felin?
Does neb yn gwybod.
Ydyn nhw yn yr oergell?
Ydyn nhw yn y tegell?
Ydyn nhw yn y lyfyrgell?
Does neb yn gwybod.
Ydyn nhw ar y to?
Ydyn nhw dan glo?
Ydyn nhw'n crwydro?
Does neb yn gwybod.
Ydyn nhw yn y coeden?
Ydyn nhw yn yr awyren?
Ydyn nhw yn y gacen?
Does neb yn gwybod.
Here's a recording:
Chorus
Where are Owen's parsnips?
Where are Owen's parsnips?
Where are Owen's parsnips?
Nobody knows.
Are they in the kitchen?
Are they with the wizard?
Are they in the mill?
Nobody knows.
Are they in the fridge?
Are they in the kettle?
Are they in the library?
Nobody knows.
Are they on the roof?
Are they locked up?
Are they wandering?
Nobody knows.
Are they in the tree?
Are they in the plane?
Are they in the cake?
Nobody knows.
