First Minister Eluned Morgan's St David's Day message
Neges Dydd Gŵyl Dewi gan Prif Weinidog Eluned Morgan
Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus i chi gyd – Happy St David’s Day to all of you.
Today people across Wales and across the world come together and celebrate all things Wales and Welshness – Cymru a Chymreictod.
On our national day we like to follow St David and what he did and do the little things – gwneud y pethau bychain.
Because lots of little things soon add up.
This sense of taking care of others is part of our national identity, as is our love of singing and sports.
We are right to be proud of our close-knit communities and strong sense of social justice and fairness.
Our tolerance and our progressive values are also key to us.
Wales is also home to innovators and creators, making it a place where brilliant ideas can thrive.
Our rich history, vibrant culture and language is as unique as our mountains, coastlines and thriving cities.
I promise that we will continue our work to create a stronger, fairer and a greener Wales.
A place where everyone is valued, and nobody is left behind.
And where our young people can achieve their dreams and their potential.
These are aims rooted in the lessons taught by Dewi Sant himself.
So, wherever you are celebrating St David’s Day this year, help us to turn the world a little more Welsh and do a little thing to brighten someone else’s day up.
Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus to you all – mwynhewch!
