N'FAMADY KOUYATÉ + GRUFF RHYS - SENGL NEWYDD 'GADAEL Y DREF' ALLAN 10.12 AR LIBERTINO | NEW SINGLE 'GADAEL Y DREF' OUT 10.12 ON LIBERTINO
Rhyddhad olaf Libertino ar gyfer y flwyddyn hon yw'r cydweithrediad anhygoel rhwng N'famady a Gruff Rhys. Mae Miniyamba / Gadael y Dref yn ailweithrediad o gân traddodiadol o Orllewin Affrica gyda geiriau yng Nghymraeg a Malinké.
Eglura N'famady sut cafodd y gân ei greu:
"Mae 'Miniyamba / Gadael y Dref', yr ailweithrediad o'r gân traddodiadol o Orllewin Affrica a hudodd Gruff Rhys ar y daith Pang!, felly mae'n ddewis perffaith ar gyfer y cydweithrediad hwn. Mae'r gân yn disgrifio chwedl hynafol y neidr sydd yn gwarchod pentref, yn gwahardd unrhyw un rhag dod i mewn neu gadael, tan mae merch sydd eisiau priodi yn ceisio bargeinio gyda'r neidr tan ei bod yn cael "Gadael y Dref".
The last release for Libertino this year is the wonderfully inspired collaboration between N’famady and Gruff Rhys. Miniyamba / Gadael y Dref is a reworking of a tradition West African song with lyrics in Welsh and Malinké.
N’famady explains how the song came about:
“Miniyamba/Gadael y Dref is a reworking of a traditional West African song that enchanted Gruff Rhys on the Pang! tour, which made it the perfect choice for this collaboration. The song tells of an ancient legend of a serpent that protects a village by allowing no one in or out, until a girl who wants to marry tries to stike a deal with the great snake “Minyamba”, and her hopes and fears when finally able to “Gadael y Dref” (leave the village).”
