The origins of the nursery rhyme are not clear, nor do we know whether there is some sort of hidden meaning – or if it’s just nonsense. Talog Williams altered one of the verses of this song and added four more to create Sosban Fach – a song that lists the troubles of a stressed housewife. In the song, we hear about how Mary Ann’s finger is wounded, little Dafydd is unwell, the baby is crying, and – of course – the little saucepan is boiling on the fire, among other things we might find in a chaotic household!

In fact, the song even references Thatcher with the line “Er gwaetha hen Fagi a’i chriw” (“In spite of old Maggie and her crew”).

Fun Fact: As evidence of the patriotic and emotional sentiments that the song holds for so many, Plaid Cymru and Welsh Labour MPs in the UK sang the song in the UK House of Commons when they were protesting against Brexit and the shutdown of parliament 1 (source: BBC). You may have heard this one being sun before a game – most notable is its rousing chorus of “gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i’m gwlad” (country, country, I am loyal to my country).
