Thread Name: Origins: Deck the Halls / Cymraeg Nos Galan
Subject: RE: Lyric Req: DeckHalls Cymraeg Nos Galan
Sian, the website I gave has a list of references; the first that mentions "words" is dated 1800, so you are correct. I would appreciate it if you would look at this site and tell me what you think of its reliability- it looks pretty good to me but I am ignorant on this subject.
I got the Calends Nos Galen name from a site on Halloween; often these write-ups have errors.
