Englynion Gwydion
Englynion Gwydion is the name sometimes used to refer to a series of three englyn composed by Gwydion to call to him the wounded Lleu Llaw Gyffes after Lleu was struck by a poisoned spear by Gronw Pebr which ultimately turns him into an eagle. It appears in the fourth branch of the Mabinogi, the tale of Math fab Mathonwy.

Ony dywedaf i eu, O ulodeu Lleu ban yw hynn. | Derwen a dyf rhwng dau lyn yn cysgodi'n dawel awyr a glyn oni ddywedaf i gelwydd o flodau Lleu y mae hyn. | Oak that grows between two lakes; Darkening gently sky and glen Unless I tell a lie, From the flowers of Lleu are these. |

Yn y blaen, Lleu Llaw Gyffes. | Derwen a dyf mewn maes uchel nis gwlych glaw, nis tawdd gwres cynhaliodd ugain dawn ar ei brig Lleu Llaw Gyffes. | Oak that grows in upland ground, Rain wets it not, heat burns it not It contained twenty gifts It bears in its branches Lleu of the Skilfull Hand. |
