is there anyone who can provide me with the lyrics to the song they sing ?? i’m making an art project based on mari lwyd for my art final & i want to perform it
@@samanthapalmer2996 exactly, isn't the correct response after much back and forth of singing to offer a cup of wassail to the revelers after which they will move on?
@@dasy2k1 yes or something very similar. These days depending on what region of Wales you live in the response is to either keep going back and forth until the Mari Lwyd party get bored and move on themselves or if you lose "the battle" due to running out of reasons why they shouldn't enter then you simply offer them some form of drink and possibly a little treat (commonly it my area it is mince pies) at which point they move on, they don't even enter your home anymore
The child crying in the background just enhances the experience
Because children never cry when they meet Santa either
Welcome to wales 😂. Love the extra detail of kids crying in fear 🎉🎉
I wish this was a thing in the US. What a cool tradition
I mean it is. The Mari Lwyd visited me this Christmas.
I just learned about this Welsh tradition and it looks like so much fun! I'd love to see it in person one day.
Sure it does.
@@Maspets you look silly af under all these comments
@@peroxideblonde You look silly in general.
@@Maspets 🤡🤡
@@peroxideblonde HAHA can't handle that someone doesn't enjoy a fucked up horse skull on Christmas. Get over it!
This tradition isn’t complete without the blood-curdling screams of petrified children in the background.
Very proud of my Welsh heritage.
Even the cameraman isn't safe from Mari Lwyn.
I randomly came across this tradition. I must say it was actually quite entertaining to watch.
I wanna see this in America so bad 😭 its so goofy and silly I love it
Freaking amazing
Nadolig llawen a blwyddyn newydd dda. 🎄☃🌟🎄

Without the naked dancing.

This song is so cool. I wish I knew what it meant
Here we come my dear friends to ask permission to sing. If we don't have permission, let us know in song how we should go away tonight.
I don't understand anything they say but it looks fun
The white mare is hoping to get inside! Then wishes everyone best wishes xxx
Duw
What exactly is this? Not even sure what the huge white thing is supposed to be?
Don't ask.
By far, not the brightest Europeans
?
How Rude. Europe has Crampus the Welsh have Mari Lywd
Rude.
It's beautiful folklore. I'm SO glad they still keep it!
Racism? 🎉
This is pagan tradition, the people of Wales should avoid this
this is a welsh tradition, wales was a pagan country
cry about it
This is a Welsh Tradition dating back 100s of years. Back when it started most Welsh people were pagans and quite a few of us still are
