-A variety of stories

-inspire Christmas carols.

0:06:500:06:54

-The story of baby Jesus

-is very popular.

0:06:550:06:57

-It's the topic of the carol

-by Ysgol Cynwyd Sant, Maesteg.

0:06:570:07:01

-We're Ysgol Cynwyd Sant in Maesteg

0:07:090:07:14

-The carol refers to when the

-three Wise Men visited the manger...

0:07:150:07:21

-..to tell Mary, Joseph and Jesus

-that they needed to escape.

0:07:210:07:25

-This year, we've seen many

-refugees fleeing from Syria...

0:07:260:07:30

-..so we can compare this family

-with the events of the present day.

0:07:300:07:34

-It's important that the children

-remember that Jesus was a refugee.

-with their own message

0:07:420:07:46

0:07:580:08:02

-# Searching for a shelter,

-a haven for three

0:08:040:08:08

0:09:020:09:06

-What do the judges look for

-in a competition of this kind?

0:10:320:10:36

-This year's judges...

0:10:360:10:38

-..are the singer, Margaret Williams

-and conductor, Huw Foulkes.

0:10:380:10:42

-They have the difficult task

-of choosing a winner.

0:10:430:10:47

-It was far from easy.

0:10:550:10:57

-Margaret and I chatted

-for many hours about all ten carols.

0:10:570:11:03

-We had different ideas

-about some of the entries...

0:11:030:11:06

-..but were unanimously about others

-and we came to a decision.

0:11:070:11:11

-I was quite amazed.

0:11:110:11:13

-We wanted to find a carol

-that stood the test of time...

0:11:140:11:18

-..and could be performed

-for many years.

0:11:180:11:21

-I think we've found a few like that.

0:11:210:11:25

-I'm not a huge fan of drums and

-guitars in a big accompaniment...

0:11:260:11:32

-..unless it fully contributes

-to the performance.

0:11:320:11:36

-I think it's essential to have

-a good melody for a carol.

0:11:360:11:41

-A catchy tune is very important

-with children...

0:11:410:11:47

-..and it grabs my attention.

0:11:470:11:50

-I'm looking for memorable lyrics,

-a singable melody...

0:11:500:11:55

-..and a performance that conveys

-the message effectively.

0:11:550:12:00

-We have to remember

-the real meaning of Christmas.

0:12:000:12:04

-All the ten carols

-that have reached the shortlist...

0:12:040:12:09

-..convey the message, have memorable

-lyrics and a singable melody.

0:12:090:12:15

-They know exactly

-what they want to hear...

0:12:210:12:25

-..and what each choir needs

-to raise the roof.

0:12:250:12:28

-We'll have more carols

-in a few minutes.

0:13:460:13:49

-# "Be generous, give me a gift"

0:13:500:13:53

-# That is my wish

0:13:530:13:56

-# This year, I would like a gift

0:13:560:14:00

-# But not a shiny, swell one

0:14:000:14:03

0:17:020:17:06

-It's composed by Miss Marged Jones.

0:17:070:17:09

-The carol marks 150 years

0:17:090:17:15

-The tango element came from

0:17:160:17:21

0:17:210:17:27

-The carol has been composed

-in a different style.

0:17:270:17:31

-# We travelled on board the Mimosa

0:17:320:17:35

-# On a long and tiring journey

0:17:360:17:39

-# Across the Atlantic Ocean

-to the Welsh Colony

0:17:400:17:43

-# To protect

-our culture and language

0:17:430:17:46

-# July was the date of the landing

0:17:520:17:56

-# And we were miserable and cold

0:17:560:17:59

-# December brought romance

-to enchant us

0:18:000:18:03

-# Puerto Madryn looked beautiful

-below the moonlight

0:18:030:18:07

-# To the music of carols,

-family and friends joined together

0:18:080:18:12

-# To remember

-the Saviour of the World

0:18:130:18:16

-# From the foot of America,

-came the cry of Christmas

0:18:160:18:20

-# That Christ

-was the Saviour of the World

0:18:200:18:23

-# The Welsh emigrated

-without a second thought

0:18:290:18:33

-# And the Wise Men travelled far

0:18:330:18:36

-# Everyone hoped for one thing

0:18:370:18:40

-# The promise of a better life

0:18:400:18:43

-# Our new home might have been bare

0:18:490:18:53

-# But the message of our song

-was the same

0:18:530:18:56

-# We praise and worship our King

0:18:570:19:00

-# We bow down to the baby

0:19:000:19:04

-# To the music of carols,

-family and friends joined together

0:19:050:19:09

-# To remember

-the Saviour of the World

0:19:090:19:12

-# From the foot of America,

-came the cry of Christmas

0:19:130:19:16
