An keth liw ew avel an lily Corawes reb an eglos.  (Ma dens lew ha ster gwenton ewedh.) Martesen thew gwel leun a lily Corawes. Soweth! Trûedh tra ew rag an tiek. Piw a alja aga huntel rag an shoppys e'n gorothom ma? Piw a wra perna flourys lebmyn? An flourys na alja bos marow ken Pask - spladn ew an gewer etho thew an flourys re a-varr. Nei a gerras (gerdhas) en vorr wag ahes. An keth gwel ew dhe vos gwelys. Ma gòlow howl en keow - ma lies bagas eythin, owriek aga bleujyow, ow spladna lôwenek. Ma'n drânow ow whirny oll adro - ma dhodhans lystednow melyn.    


What are the colours of spring? Today it's yellow. From my garden I can see a yellow field in the distance. What is there growing in it? It's the same colour as the daffodils by the church. (There are dandelions and celandines as well.) Perhaps it a field full of daffodils. Alas! It's a tragedy for the farmer. Who could pick them for the shops in this emergency? Who will buy flowers now? The flowers could be dead before Easter - the weather is splendid so the flowers are too early. We walked along an empty road. The same field is visible. There is sunshine in hedges - many gorse bushes with golden blossom are shining cheerfully. The bumblebees are buzzing all around - they have yellow stripes.
