Welsh Lyrics with literal English translation ~ Aer Album

Afonydd aur yng ngolau’r haul
Ar draffydd bywyd sydd at ben
‘Mlaen a ‘mlaen trwy y tarth
Arhosaf I ti…
Heb edrych yn ôl
Hel cysgodion tywyll
Symbol o bobl sydd ar goll
Yn lle tanwydd ffawd sy’n gyrru’r car
Ga’I ddilyn ti? drycha’I ddim yn õl
Anadlaf aer
Gwelaf yr haul
Codi machlud
Mae’r diwrnod ar ben
Anadlaf aer
Un hawdd I dwyllo fues I erioed
Twyll oedd y freuddwyd am roc a rol
Dim byd ond darn
O bapur plaen ac mae’r freuddwyd wedi mynd
Anadlaf aer
Gwelaf yr haul
Codi machlud
Mae’r diwrnod ar ben
Anadlaf aer
Teimlaf gur dy galon drwy fy nghroen
Dim ond ti o bethau’r hyd all lenwi nghalon i
Dim ond ti all fy arbed i
Calon, cred ti fi?Drycha’I ddim yn õl
Anadlaf aer
Gwelaf yr haul
Codi machlud
Mae’r diwrnod ar ben
Anadlaf aer

(Literal Translation)
Golden rivers in the light of the sun
On the trail of a life at it’s end.
Onwards and onwards through the mist
I wait for you
Without looking back
Gather dark shadows a symbol of people who are lost
Instead of fuel, fortune drives the car
Can I follow you?
I will not look back.
I breathe the air
I watch the sun
Rise and fall
The day is over
I breathe the air
I always was easy to deceive/cheat
The rock and roll dream was a deception
Just a plain piece of paper and the dream was gone
I breathe the air
I watch the sun
Rise and fall
The day is over
I breathe the air
I feel your heart beating through my skin
Only you of all things can fill my heart
Only you can save my heart, do you believe me?
I will not look back
I breathe the air
I watch the sun
Rise and fall The day is over
I breathe the air
