"Cerddi'r Mynydd Du" by G. ap Lleision W. Griffiths and Llew Morgan is a collection of poems compiled and organized during the early 20th century. This work reflects the rich cultural tapestry of Welsh literature, with a particular focus on themes related to the natural beauty of the Mynydd Du (Black Mountain) region, personal reminiscences, and local folklore. It captures the essence of rural life and the connection to the landscape intrinsic to the Welsh identity. The collection features various poems that celebrate nature, memory, and heritage. It includes reflections on the Mynydd Du's flora and fauna, allegorical tales, and personal stories of love and loss, making each poem a window into the life and culture of the area. Pieces like "Yn y Mawn ar ben y Mynydd" convey the tranquility of the mountain top, while "Bugail y Mynydd Du" commemorates the steadfast characters that inhabit this landscape. Through evocative imagery and simple yet poignant language, the poems evoke a sense of nostalgia and appreciation for the Welsh countryside, revealing both the beauty and challenges of life connected to this revered land.
