Dafydd ap Gwilym was writing in the fourteenth century, about the same time as Chaucer was writing in England. This is a parallel text, and to my totally untutored eye, it seems that his poetry is easier for a modern Welsh-speaking reader to get the gist of than is Chaucer for the modern English-speaking reader. Whatever, the English language translations are a delight to read, and even the Foreword and Introduction are well worth dedicating a cup of coffee to.

Poetry, in translation, by the medieval Welsh poet Dafydd ap Gwilym (David son of William). Even rendered in English, it's breathtaking - and distinctively Dafydd's voice. A poet well worth discovering, even for those of us who don't speak Cymraeg (the native Welsh language), much less the 14th century version of it!
