1 I can give you a voice bred with rhythm and soul
The heart of a Welsh boy who's lost his home
Put it in harmony let the words ring
Carry your thoughts in the songs we sing
I give you my notes, I give you my words
When your voice carries them at your own tempo
A fragile and solid shoulder at the same time
What I imagine and what I believe.
R I give you all my differences
All these faults which are so many chances
We will never be standards, good people as expected
I give you what I have, what I am worth.
2 I can give you the force of my ancestral pride
The will to go on when I'm hurt deep inside
Whatever the feeling, whatever the way
It helps me go on from day to day
I give you our doubts and our indescribable hope
The questions that the roads have left in history
Our girls are dark and we speak a little loudly
And humor and love are our treasures.
R I give you...
I give you, give, give what I am.
3 I can give you my voice bred with rhythm and soul
I give you my notes I give you my voice
The songs that I love and the stories I've told
Oh, what I imagine and what I believe
I can make you feel good even when I am down
br/>The reasons that carry me and stupid hope
My strength is a platform that you can climb on
A fragile and strong shoulder at the same time
(all: bis)< br/>I give you, yes
I give you
Everything I am worth
What I am
My gifts, my faults,
My pluses good chances,
My differences.
