DEN HEB TAVES
by GWENNO
Film by Mark Jenkin
An observation on the destructive nature of Late Capitalism on our collective culture
DEN HEB TAVES
Ow rydhsus, ow rydhsus yw rewys
Devnydhoryon, devnydhoryon freudhek
Den heb taves,
Den heb taves re gollas
Ow dywlyv, ow dywlyv mostes
Helghiorion, helghiorion hunlev
A TONGUELESS MAN
My freedom, my freedom is frozen
Consumers, consumers are violent
A tongueless man,
A tongueless man has lost
My hands, my hands are filthy
Hunters, hunters of dreams
