(31) Cardiff

The city of my birth and most of my life.

River Taff is running through

Comes from those Bute Docks

Through Grangetown, to Riverside

Finding its way to the city

By the Millennium Stadium

Cardiff we have now arrived



A City with so much to see

And there is Ely near by

Llandaff with its cathedral

Splott is one of a kind

Canton has the football ground

So many places left to see



This is where I was born

Welsh man standing proud

Cardiff, a city full of culture

With a castle standing so tall

I can still remember it well

Soon I will return there again
