The Welsh title is "Bugeilio'r Gwenith Gwyn" which is "Shepherding the White Wheat". (i.e.'I take all my time keeping watch waiting for her to come to courting age, then someone else reaps the benefits.')

Adele, I would PM you on this but you aren't a member. At any rate, I can't give her contact details out; I'm sure you can understand.    Phyllis and her husband, Mered, are both cornerstones of the trad music research community and we owe them a lot. Much that will be in the book is drawing together all the articles and books they've published over the years, and making some of it available in English for the first time.

Phyllis did do an article for the publication,Welsh Music History Vol 6 on Hunting the Wren. I'm afraid I don't own that particular volume. And I think she's also written in the Journal of the Welsh Folk Music Society on the subject; I probably do have that, but it will be in Welsh.

There is a thread here somewhere on Cutty Wren, if you use the Lyrics & Knowledge search, above.
