"The Queen's Marsh / Bog"

morfa = marsh/bog/fen/moor/sea-marsh

'r = the

brenhines = queen
mutated to frenhines, 'b' to 'f' ~ a single 'f' sounds as 'v'
(a double, 'ff', sounds the same as the English sound 'f')

morrr-vah-rrr Vrrran-hee-nass

Morfa'r Frenhines

Have just been listening to this on the Megin album. It's a brilliant moody tune.
