Would love for Yma O Hyd to start as the players start to wait in the tunnel, all of us belting that out while the players can hear it would be amazing

And I would like for the crowd to carry it rather than have a loud backing track. Maybe start the backing track to cue us in, similar to the anthem, and then cut the track off and let us do the verse. Make it a thing

Let's have it as the official national anthem 👍

I agree that after the game that backing track drowned out the fans, it sounded epic when the fans were singing it in the closing stages. The chorus of it is so powerful. 

I think it's a bit unfortunate that during the rendition we were under a bit of pressure at a tense time, I think they had a bit of a break away and then had a corner. If we'd have relieved that pressure I think the volume would have turned up a notch. 

Some of the newer chants for players are great, but we've got such a strong array of powerful traditional Welsh language hymns and songs that the English could only dream of in our back pocket to make more use of.

1. Dwyt ti'n cofio Macsen, does neb yn ei nabod o;
Mae mil a chwe chant o flynyddoedd yn amser rhy hir i'r co';
Pan aeth Magnus Maximus o Gymru yn y flwyddyn tri-chant-wyth-tri,
A'n gadael yn genedl gyfan, a heddiw: wele ni!
Cytgan : Ry'n ni yma o hyd, ry'n ni yma o hyd,
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth, er gwaetha pawb a phopeth,
Ry'n ni yma o hyd.

2. Chwythed y gwynt o'r Dwyrain, rhued y storm o'r môr,
Hollted y mellt yr wybren a gwaedded y daran encôr,
Llifed dagrau'r gwangalon a llyfed y taeog y llawr,
Er dued yw'r fagddu o'n cwmpas ry'n ni'n barod am doriad y wawr!
(Cytgan)
3, Cofiwn i Facsen Wledig adael ein gwlad yn un darn
A bloeddiwn gerbron y gwledydd, "Mi fyddwn yma tan Ddydd y Farn!"
Er gwaetha pob Dic Sion Dafydd, er gwaetha 'rhen Fagi a'i chriw,
Byddwn yma hyd ddiwedd amser, a bydd yr iaith Gymraeg yn fyw!
(Cytgan)

Wales Online got a load of clips together from the Belgium game, a week on and I'm still absolutely buzzing from that match!

Absolutely brilliant...!!

It is very moving, and truly unbelievable, the extent to which the language and Football have grown together in Wales:

Even as a Welsh speaker it's hard to remember all of the words and I can't see the stadium showing the lyrics on the big screen!

Any ideas on how we can take at least the first verse and the chorus to the people who are not fluent?
