Ar Hyd Y Nos

Reel · 4/4 · G major

Ar Hyd Y Nos is a traditional Welsh folk melody that first appeared in print in Edward Jones's 1784 collection, Musical and Poetical Relics of the Welsh Bards. The tune is traditionally played in a smooth, flowing style that suits its gentle character and vocal origins, though its meter is 4/4 and it is set in G major. It gained widespread international fame after being paired with John Farmer's English lyrics to become the popular Christmas carol All Through the Night.
