The Gospel Rhythm Kings - Hiraeth Am Wrecsam

There's magic in this old coal-mining town
It's more than just Red Dragons - or the fabled Racecourse Ground
The people stand together side-by-side
Fighting through adversity with dignity and pride

Hiraeth am Wrecsam overwhelms me
Hiraeth am Wrecsam fills my heart
Hiraeth am Wrecsam coursing through my veins
Hiraeth am Wrecsam evermore

Hiraeth am Wrecsam

Industry had faded, days grew cold
Thieves broke in, but legacy could not be bought or sold
Though the times had not been always kind
The steel within your backbone showed - this town began to rise

Hiraeth am Wrecsam overwhelms me
Hiraeth am Wrecsam fills my heart
Hiraeth am Wrecsam coursing through my veins
Hiraeth am Wrecsam evermore

Wrecsam, now a city, not a town
Your fame spreads far and wide, your legend grows beyond all bounds
From the football to the people that you meet
There's magic in the air, and sometimes dancing in the streets

Hiraeth am Wrecsam overwhelms me
Hiraeth am Wrecsam fills my heart
Hiraeth am Wrecsam coursing through my veins
Hiraeth am Wrecsam evermore

If you're like me, you were not born in Wrecsam
A big part of my heart wishes I'd been
How in the world can I feel hiraeth for a place I was not born
But then the lads bang in a goal, and I recall once more

Hiraeth am Wrecsam overwhelms me
Hiraeth am Wrecsam fills my heart
Hiraeth am Wrecsam coursing through my veins
Hiraeth am Wrecsam evermore

Hiraeth am Wrecsam evermore
Hiraeth am Wrecsam evermore
