My Oath to King Charles III

After the period of National Mourning, Parliament is about to resume sitting.

Today I was honoured to join colleagues in swearing allegiance to our new Sovereign, King Charles III – in both Cymraeg and English.

I asked to swear on a Welsh bible.  

Here is what I said :

I swear by almighty God, that I will be faithful and bare true allegiance to His Majesty King Charles, his heirs and successors according to law, so help me God. 

Yr wyf yn addo, trwy gymorth y goruchaf, y byddaf yn ffyddlon ac yn wir deyrngar i’w Fawrhydi, y Brenin Charles, Ei Etifeddion a’i Olynwyr, yn ôl y Ddeddf, yn wyneb Duw
