Welsh Song Weekly

Welsh Song Weekly is a new podcast where Jason Shepherd from the 'Learn Welsh Podcast' has taken up the challenge to learn and record a traditional Welsh song every week for 52 weeks from St. Davids day 2013 to St. Davids day 2014. Today's song is a children's song and nursery rhyme called 'Mynd Drot Drot' /Going Trot trot. The song is about a white horse taking a child's mother into town to buy something nice for the families tea.
