Y Darlun (‘The Picture’) is a poignant Welsh song sensitively performed by the Perth Male Voice Choir on their 2024 tour of North Wales. This video features performances in Llandudno and Caernafon. Musical Director is Simone Bishop and accompanist Andrew Angel.
The lyrics were written by T. Rowland Hughes when he reflected on the ‘Praying Hands’ picture (by Albrecht Durer) which hung above his bed. This picture reminded him of his childhood and the picture’s silent presence in his life when he went to sleep and woke again in the morning.
“On a still small night
The prayer will be taken by the breeze
From the bedside to the stars
As sweet as a nightingale…
I can hear it.”
(Verse 3)
Lyricist: T. Rowland Hughes
