Far away a voice is calling, bells of memory chime,
     G                C                G                          G7            
Come home again, come home again, they call through the oceans of time.

We'll keep a welcome in the hillside, we'll keep a welcome in the Vales,
              F         Dm7      C             Am7      Am            G         G7

This land of song will keep a welcome, and with a love that never fails,
            F        Dm7     C             Am7      Am   G        C
We'll kiss away each hour of hiraeth, when you come home again to Wales.

We'll keep a welcome in the hillside, we'll keep a welcome in the Vales,
              F         Dm7      C             Am7      Am            G        G7
