Here Be Dragons have supported many of the top names in World/folk music - The Young Dubliners (USA/Ireland), Carlos Nuñes (Spain), The Oysterband (England), Flook (Ireland) and Yo Yo Mundi (Italy). They have appeared on television in Wales, internationally on cable and enjoyed radio support across Europe as well as in Australia and the USA.
With their live show, you don’t so much introduce Here Be Dragons, as unleash them. They leap onto the stage. Mike Brooks, wild front man and lead singer also extremely accomplished on banjo, guitar, mandolin clad in a kilt bearing the Welsh national flag Will Morrison the drummer keeps the band firing on all cylinders, Stepan Pasicznyk (Formally of “The Ukrainians”) does magic on accordion, Cath Watkins sings and plays fiddle like the devil with such apparent ease, and Kyle Jones plays bass, guitar and vocals.
Here Be Dragons try to be true to their culture and heritage, not as a museum exhibit but in a way that’s a more honest reflection of what it means to be Welsh in the twenty-first century, whilst still respecting their Celtic roots. Using acoustic instruments like banjos, mandolins, fiddles and accordions alongside drums and electric bass in a way that’s far from most people’s idea of a Celtic folk-rock band; the emphasis is much more on the rock style of presentation. They sing in both Welsh and English and play mainly original songs but also include a couple of traditional ones like ‘Sosban Fach,’ and interpret them with all the power they deserve.

Here Be Dragons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ar hyd y nos mae'n pori
A'i chefyn brith a'i bola bola gwyn
Yn hidio dim am filgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Ac wedi rhedeg tipyn tipyn bach
Mae'n rhedeg mor ofnadwy
Ac un glust lan a'r llall i lawr
Yn dweud ffarwel i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Rol rhedeg sbel mae'r milgi chwim
Yn teimlo'i fod e'n blino
A gwelir ef yn swp yn swp ar lawr
Mewn poenau mawr yn gwingo
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Ond dal i fynd wna'r swarnog fach
A throi yn ol i weni
Gan sboncio'n heini dros y bryn
Yn dweud ffarwel i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
The song "Milgi Milgi" by Here Be Dragons tells the story of a little rabbit that wanders up the hillside at night, and comes across a hungry, spotted dog. The rabbit is nimble and evades the dog, who is exhausted and starts to slow down. The song is about the rabbit's journey and how, even though it keeps running away from the dog, it still wishes the dog would have enough food to eat. The chorus urges listeners to give the dog more food so that it can survive.
The first verse says that "At the top of the hill is a small rabbit, grazing all night long. And with dotted fur and a white fluffy tail, it doesn't care about the dog." The second verse talks about how the dog chases the rabbit, but it remains nimble and continues to run away. The third verse describes how the dog is getting tired and slowing down, but he keeps trying to chase the rabbit anyways. The last verse talks about how the rabbit is still gracefully grazing on the hillside, not worried about the dog, which has given up trying to follow.
The overall meaning of the song is the power of compassion and the belief that you should care about all living creatures. It is a plea for people to take care of animals in need and to show empathy towards them.

Ar ben y bryn mae sgwarnog fach
At the top of the hill, there is a small rabbit
Ar hyd y nos mae'n pori
Throughout the night, it forages
A'i chefyn brith a'i bola bola gwyn
With its speckled fur and white tail
Yn hidio dim am filgi
It hides from no fox
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Dog, dog, dog, dog
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Give more and more food to the dog
Ac wedi rhedeg tipyn tipyn bach
And after running a little bit
Mae'n rhedeg mor ofnadwy
It runs so terribly
Ac un glust lan a'r llall i lawr
With one ear up and the other down
Yn dweud ffarwel i'r milgi
Saying goodbye to the dog
Rol rhedeg sbel mae'r milgi chwim
The dog runs quickly in circles
Yn teimlo'i fod e'n blino
Feeling like it's tired
A gwelir ef yn swp yn swp ar lawr
And it's seen flopping on the ground
Mewn poenau mawr yn gwingo
Whimpering in great pain
Ond dal i fynd wna'r swarnog fach
But the little rabbit keeps going
A throi yn ol i weni
And turns back to smile
Gan sboncio'n heini dros y bryn
Jumping happily over the hill
Milgi milgi milgi milgi
Dog, dog, dog, dog
Rhowch fwy o fwyd i'r milgi
Give more and more food to the dog
