Come to me my Cariad
Come to cwtch and pray.
Hold me close now Cariad
Until the dawn’s first ray
Close your eyes now Cariad
And cwtch up close to see
The moon and the stars are yours tonight
Safe and sound with me.

At last asleep my Cariad
Asleep in loving arms
The cwtch of love is ours tonight
In peace and care and calm
Close your eyes now Cariad
And cwtch up close to see
The moon and the stars are yours tonight
Safe and sound with me.

Friends and lovers by your side
In the years to come.
Cwtch them close my Cariad
As you and I have done.
Close your eyes now Cariad
And cwtch up close to see
The moon and the stars are yours tonight
Safe and sound with me.

NOTE: The Welsh word ‘cwtch’ (cuddle) is pronounced cooch. Cariad means Love or Darling.
