Carlo by Dafydd Iwan: This Welsh song was a protest against the investiture of Prince Charles in 1969. Support Red Republican Pitchfork Protest against Queen's Jubilee in June 2012

 A satirical song poking fun at Prince Charles who's title is 'Prince of Wales', yet there is nothing Welsh about him... The song conveys this well. Originally, this song was a protest against the investiture of Prince Charles in 1969. -

Note: "Carlo" is a nickname given to Charles. The English translation of 'Carlo' would be 'Charlie'.

A Charlo Windsor yw ei enw ef.

English translation lyrics:

"Carlo"

I've a little friend who lives in Buckingham Palace,
And Carlo Windsor is his name.
Last time I went to knock on his door,
His Mother answered and she told me...

O, Carlo, Carlo,
Carlo's playing polo today, today,
Carlo, Carlo,
Carlo's playing polo with Daddy, Daddy.

Join in the song, peoples old and young,
Finally we have a "Prince" in the land of song.

He recieved his education over in Australia,
And off to Scotland did he go.
Columnist of Welsh culture,
Contributor to 'Tafod y Ddraig'
A member of the Urdd, a camper ever since I can remember...

O, Carlo, Carlo,
Carlo's playing polo today, today,
Carlo, Carlo,
Carlo's playing polo with Daddy, Daddy.

Join in the song, peoples old and young,
Finally we have a "Prince" in the land of song.

Every week he reads the 'Cymro' and the 'Faner',
He reads Dafydd ap Gwilym in his bed every night,
The future of the language and country is close to his heart
He's a greater nationalist than the FWA...

O, Carlo, Carlo,
Carlo's playing polo today, today,
Carlo, Carlo,
Carlo's playing polo with Daddy, Daddy.

Join in the song, peoples old and young,
Finally we have a "Prince" in the land of song.

Oh yeah, Carlo, Carlo,
Carlo's playing polo today yeah, today,
Carlo, Carlo,
Carlo's playing polo with Daddy yeah, Daddy.

Join in the song, peoples old and young,
Finally we have a "Prince" in the land of song.
