-Hello and welcome -to Enwog o Fri, Ardal Ni. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:46 | |
-Welcome to our school - Ysgol -Gynradd Pennant in Penybont Fawr. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:52 | |
-Where in Wales is Penybont Fawr? | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
-Well, in the Tanat Valley, -not far from Llanfyllin, Mid Wales. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:04 | |
-We live in a wonderfully green area. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
-It's also a quiet place. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
-Listen carefully - you'll only hear -the sound of nature. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
-You're never quiet long enough -to hear the sound of nature. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:19 | |
-Hey, neither are you! | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
-But we know of one person... | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
-..who enjoyed listening -to the sound of nature. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
-Yes - her name was Melangell. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
-Saint Melangell. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
-Renowned and revered, -she came from this area. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
-Our story begins many years ago, -across the sea in Ireland. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:44 | |
-I'll see you later, little bird. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
-Hello, I'm Princess Melangell. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
-I'm the king's daughter. | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
-Melangell? Melangell? | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
-Here he is. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
-What's wrong, Father? | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
-I have some great news -to share with you. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
-I've found you a husband. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
-A rich prince who's very smart. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
-You'll find no-one better. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
-No, never. Never ever. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
-What? Don't you want to get married? | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
-What's wrong with her? | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
-I want to dedicate my life to God. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
-That's my decision. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:39 | |
-Yoo-hoo! | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
-Tell Mami what's wrong, Melangell. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
-Melangell weds tomorrow. -First thing. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
-Organise the feast. Now! | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
-A wedding. | 0:02:58 | 0:02:59 | |
-I like weddings. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
-I don't want to get married. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
-Yes, you do. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
-You're about to get married -to a smart prince. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
-He's rich. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
-You're so lucky. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
-But dear me, I have so much -to organise before tomorrow morning. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:22 | |
-Come on, Melangell, -you're getting married tomorrow. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
-Smile! | 0:03:27 | 0:03:28 | |
-This broke Melangell's heart. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
-She wanted to spend the rest -of her life worshipping God... | 0:03:34 | 0:03:38 | |
-..and caring for nature's creatures. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:42 | |
-When no-one was looking... | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
-..she slipped away from the court -and ran away to another country... | 0:03:44 | 0:03:49 | |
-..somewhere she could worship God -in peace. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:54 | |
-# Our Father... # | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
-After walking through the dark night -and crossing the sea on a boat... | 0:03:57 | 0:04:02 | |
-..Melangell reached -the Welsh coastline. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
-She walked slowly but determinedly -onwards and onwards. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:12 | |
-Past rivers. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:16 | |
-Through forests. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
-Across the fields. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
-Onwards and onwards -for many miles and days. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:27 | |
-After walking day after day, -she reached her journey's end. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
-That place was Cwm Pennant. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
-A beautiful place, green and -peaceful in the Powys hills. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:44 | |
-This is where I'll make my home. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
-It's perfect. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:56 | |
-Thank you, Lord, -for leading me here. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
-# Amen # | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
-Having rested and prayed... | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
-..Melangell thought -that this place was rather strange. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:12 | |
-It was quiet, unusually quiet. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:16 | |
-How strange. It's so quiet here. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
-Where are you, wonderful creatures? | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
-Slowly, quietly and nervously, -from behind a tree... | 0:05:26 | 0:05:31 | |
-..a little hare -came out of its hiding hole. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
-Hello, hare. Don't be scared. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:39 | |
-Come to me. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
-I'm Melangell. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
-Who are you? | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
-Hello, Melangell. -I'm Siwan the hare. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:51 | |
-Welcome to Cwm Pennant. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
-Siwan liked Melangell. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:58 | |
-She'd never met a lady -like this before. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:02 | |
-Someone who could speak -to little creatures. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:06 | |
-Siwan, where are the other -forest creatures? It's so quiet. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:12 | |
-That's Prince Brochwel's fault. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
-All the forest's creatures -are scared of him. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
-Prince Brochwel? | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
-Siwan explained that Prince -Brochwel, the Prince of Powys... | 0:06:23 | 0:06:28 | |
-..enjoyed hunting in Cwm Pennant. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:31 | |
-She said that many of the creatures -had been killed... | 0:06:31 | 0:06:36 | |
-..and that the rest of the creatures -hid in fear. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:40 | |
-Don't worry, Siwan, -I'm here to look after you... | 0:06:41 | 0:06:45 | |
-..and all the other creatures. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:47 | |
-But where are they? | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
-Come out - it's safe. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
-Come out - it's safe. | 0:06:56 | 0:06:58 | |
-Come and meet Melangell. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |

-Melangell was so happy. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |

-They felt safe with her. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
-That's how life continued -for many months. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:37 | |
-One day, feeling adventurous... | 0:08:38 | 0:08:42 | |
-..Siwan the hare went for a walk, -venturing further than usual. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:48 | |
-Oh, where am I? | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
-I feel like an adventure. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
-Suddenly, she heard a sound -that frightened her. | 0:08:56 | 0:09:00 | |
-The sound of a hunting horn -and horse hooves. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:04 | |
-It was Prince Brochwel, -the Prince of Powys. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:08 | |
-He was joined by his two servants -and his dogs. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
-Siwan froze in fear. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:16 | |
-Oh, goodness me. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
-Stop! | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
-A-ha! | 0:09:21 | 0:09:22 | |
-After a full day -of hunting and searching... | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
-..I, Prince Brochwel, -have seen something - a hare. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:32 | |
-Over there by the trees! After it. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
-Hello, little hare. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:40 | |
-You're so cute. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
-You have cute ears. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
-Eh? | 0:09:45 | 0:09:46 | |
-Eh? - -What on earth? Bad servants! | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |

-Catch it. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
-Oh, goodness me. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
-Siwan the hare ran off. | 0:09:57 | 0:10:01 | |
-The dogs chased her and chased her. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:05 | |
-Catch the hare. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
-Catch the hare. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:09 | |
-Come here, little hare. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
-I must reach Melangell. -She will help me. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:24 | |
-Siwan rushed into the forest. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:27 | |
-What on earth...? | 0:10:27 | 0:10:30 | |
-There, kneeling in prayer, -was Melangell. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:34 | |
-The hare raced towards her. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
-What's wrong? Siwan, are you OK? | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
-Brochwel. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:41 | |
-He's out hunting. Help me. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
-A-ha. Thought you were safe, -did you, hare? | 0:10:45 | 0:10:50 | |
-Hiding under this cloak. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |

-Come here, little dogs, -everything's OK. Hush. | 0:10:56 | 0:11:01 | |

-What? Stand! | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
-Well, do something. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:14 | |

-Melangell told Brochwel her story. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
-Everyone listened. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:56 | |
-Even Brochwel was surprised. -He started to smile. | 0:11:56 | 0:12:01 | |
-Melangell, since you're such -a special and brave person... | 0:12:02 | 0:12:07 | |
-..I grant you Cwm Pennant as a gift. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:11 | |

-From that day, Melangell -and her creatures lived happily... | 0:12:30 | 0:12:34 | |
-..in the peace and tranquillity -of the valley. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:37 | |
