The Welsh National Anthem -- in English!

I recently found this highly accurate transcription of the Welsh National Anthem. For the full effect listen to the anthem being sung here by Katharine Jenkins and sing along. Ready?


My hen laid a haddock, one hand oiled a flea,
Glad farts and centurions threw dogs in the sea,
I could stew a hare here and brandish Dan’s flan,
Don’s ruddy bog’s blocked up with sand.
Dad! Dad! Why don’t you oil Auntie Glad?
Can whores appear in beer bottle pies,
O butter the hens as they fly!
