[Verse 1]
"Oh, oh, what will you give me?"
Say the sad bells of Rhymney
"Is there hope for the future?"
Say the brown bells of Merthyr
"And who made the mine owner?"
Say the brown bells of Rhondda
"And who robbed the miner?"
Say try the grim bells of Blaina

[Verse 2]
"They will plunder will-nilly"
Say the bells of Caerphilly
"They have fangs, they have teeth"
Shout the loud bells of Neath
"Even God is uneasy"
Say the moist bells of Swansea
"And oh, what will you give me?"
Say the sad bells of Rhymney

[Verse 3]
"Throw the vandals in court"
Say the bells of Newport
"All would be easy if, if, if, if"
Say the loud bells of Cardiff
"Now, why so worried, sisters, why?"
Sing the silver bells of Wye
"And oh, what will you give me?"
Say the bells of Rhymney
