Bro Goth agan Tasow

Anthem of Cornwall, England


"Bro Goth agan Tasow" (Cornish pronunciation: [bɹoː ɡoːθ ˈæːɡæn ˈtæːzɔʊ]; "Old Land of our Fathers") is a Cornish pterotic song. It is sung in the Cornish language, to the same tune as the Welsh national anthem, "Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau". The Breton anthem, "Bro Gozh ma Zadoù", also uses the same tune.[1]

"The Song of the Western Men", more commonly known as "Trelawny", is often considered to be the Cornish anthem as well, and as in Scotland, opinion is divided on the matter, and there is no official position.[citation needed] The words to "Trelawny" are certainly more widely known amongst Cornish people.[citation needed]
