Mynd drot drot ar y gaseg wen,
Mynd drot drot i'r dre,
Mam yn dod yn ôl dros fryn a dôl
A rhywbeth neis, neis i de.
Teisen i Sil, a banana i Bil,
A thamaid i'r cath a'r ci,
Afal mawr iach i Ben y gwas bach
A rhywbeth neis, neis i mi.
Going trot trot on the white mare,
Going trot trot to town,
Mummy comes back over hill and vale
With something nice for tea.
A cake for Sil, banana for Bill,
And something for the cat and dog,
A big healthy apple for Ben the farm worker
And something nice for me.
