カロン・ラン

「カロン・ラン」（、清き心）はウェールズ語の歌である。歌詞は1890年代に（詩人としての名前グイロシズ Gwyrosydd で知られる）によって書かれ、による旋律に乗せて歌われる。この歌は元々聖歌として作られたが、と結び付いたラグビーのアンセムとして定着した。ウェールズ代表が戦うほぼ全てのテストマッチの試合前に歌われる。

この歌はS4Cのテレビシリーズ「」（2007年の第1シーズン）で歌われた伝統的なウェールズ語の歌の1つであった。

「カロン・ラン」は、歌詞の英語版がほぼ歌われたことがないという点で他の人気の伝統的なウェールズ語の歌（例えば「」）とは異なっている。しかし、旋律は例えばの賛美歌集『』Hymns and Psalms. Methodist Publishing House. 1983. .でも見られ、による歌詞「I will Sing the Wondrous Story」はこの旋律で歌われる。

スペイン語版も存在し、主にパタゴニアにある元ウェールズ人入植地のウェールズ系アルゼンチン人によって歌われる。

 歌詞 
 原詩  英訳1  英訳2（韻文詩）  英訳3  スペイン語版  スペイン語版の英訳Nid wy'n gofyn bywyd moethus,
Aur y byd na'i berlau mân:
Gofyn wyf am galon hapus,
Calon onest, calon lân.
Calon lân yn llawn daioni,
Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:
Dim ond calon lân all ganu
Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos.

Pe dymunwn olud bydol,
Hedyn buan ganddo sydd;
Golud calon lân, rinweddol,
Yn dwyn bythol elw fydd.
(Chorus)

Hwyr a bore fy nymuniad
Gwyd i'r nef ar adain cân
Ar i Dduw, er mwyn fy Ngheidwad,
Roddi i mi galon lân.
(Chorus)

 Verse 3, line 2: Esgyn ar adenydd cân
 Chorus, line 3: Does ond calon lân all ganuI don't ask for a luxurious life,
the world's gold or its fine pearls,
I ask for a happy heart,
an honest heart, a pure heart.
A pure heart full of goodness
Is fairer than the pretty lily,
None but a pure heart can sing,
Sing in the day and sing in the night.

If I wished for worldly wealth,
It would swiftly go to seed;
The riches of a virtuous, pure heart
Will bear eternal profit.
(Chorus)

Evening and morning, my wish
Rising to heaven on the wing of song
For God, for the sake of my Saviour,
To give me a pure heart.
(Chorus)

I’d not ask a life that’s easy,
Gold and pearls so little mean,
Rather seek a heart that’s joyful,
Heart that’s honest, heart that’s clean.
(Chorus)Heart that’s clean and filled with virtue,Fairer far than lilies white,Only pure hearts praise God truly,Praise him all the day and night.Full text available on author's website

I seek not life's ease and pleasures,
Earthly riches, pearls nor gold;
Give to me a heart made happy,
Clean and honest to unfold.
(Chorus)A clean heart o'erflow'd with goodness,Fairer than the lily white;A clean heart forever singing,Singing through the day and night.If I cherish earthly treasures,
Swift they flee and all is vain;
A clean heart enriched with virtues,
Brings to me eternal gain.
(Chorus)
Morn and evening my petition,
Wings its flight to heaven in song;
In the name of my Redeemer,
Make my heart clean, pure and strong.
(Chorus)Trans: Rees HarrisWelsh and English Hymns and Anthems #66, The Welsh National Gymanfa Ganu Association, Inc.Yo no pido vida ociosa,
Perlas ni un galardón:
Pido un corazón alegre,
Un honesto corazón.https://www.clarin.com/viajes/destinies/huella-colonos-galeses-Patagonia_0_4yHAVYebW.html
Calon lân yn llawn daioni,
Tecach yw na'r lili dlos:
Dim ond calon lân all ganu
Canu'r dydd a chanu'r nos.

Si quisiera la riqueza,
Pronto pierde su valor;
Más un corazón bien limpio,
Cada día es mejor.
(Chorus)

Mi plegaria día y noche,
La elevo al Señor,
Solo pido al Dios clemente,
Un honesto corazón.
(Chorus)I don't ask for an idle life,
For pearls or a reward:
I ask for a joyful heart,
An honest heart.
(Chorus)

If I wanted the riches,
It soon loses its value;
Plus with a very clean heart,
Every day is better.
(Chorus)

My prayer day and night,
I elevate to the Lord,
I just ask from a gracious God,
An honest heart.
(Chorus)
