Recordiwyd 12.9.63 gan Phillip Owen (ffermwr, g. 1879), 60 Non Street, Tyddewi, sir Benfro.

It was equally well–known outside of Wales: England, for example, had its 'shroving'. Cf. 'Cân y Grempog' with the following rhyme formerly sung on Shrove Tuesday by the children of Sunningwell, Berkshire:

Mewn rhannau o ogledd Cymru (ac yn siroedd Môn a Chaernarfon yn enwedig, fe ymddengys) parhaodd yr arfer o 'hel crempog' hyd y ganrif bresennol, eithr darfu bellach. Dydd Mawrth Ynyd ('Diwrnod Crempog'), yn union cyn dechrau'r Grawys, oedd y diwrnod traddodiadol i fwyta crempogau, ac ai plant o ddrws i ddrws i gardota amdanynt (neu am flawd a bloneg ar gyfer eu gwneud). Yr oedd yr arfer yn gyffredin hefyd y tu allan i Gymru. Peth cyfatebol oedd 'shroving' yn Lloegr, er enghraifft, ac mae'n werth cymharu 'Cân y Grempog' â'r rhigwm canlynol a genid gynt ar yr un diwrnod gan blant Sunningwell, swydd Berkshire:

The complete carol narrates the story of Christ and its background from the Fall of Man to the Ascension. Craft–wise it exhibits elaborately organised sound–patterns in rhyme and alliteration. (For a general note upon traditional Welsh Christmas carols, see under Song No. 5 above.)

Wrth ganu'r ddau bennill cyntaf yr oedd WE yn hepgor Ilinellau 1. 5–8 a 2. 9–12, eithr codwyd y tri phennill yn gyflawn o Telyn Nadolig (1847), cyfrol o waith barddonol John Williams, Bethel, Llanfyllin, sir Drefaldwyn. Y mae i'r garol yno 7 bennill ac o'r rheini Rhifau 1, 5 a 6 a gynhwysir yn y gyfrol bresennol. Edrydd y garol gyflawn hanes yr lesu a'i gefndir o'r Cwymp yn Eden hyd yr Esgyniad. 0 ran crefft y mae yma blethwaith celfydd o odlau a chyseinedd. (Am nodyn ar garolau traddodiadol Cymraeg, gw. o dan Cân Rhif 5 uchod.)

Welsh versions of 'The Twelve Days of Christmas' are of course known to have been performed as feat songs; for instance, the list of gifts being sung upon one breath (and therefore with increasing speed as the verses gradually lengthened). Interestingly, another English cumulative rhyme, 'A gaping wide–mouthed waddling frog' is said in ODNR, 181–3, to have been popular in England 'especially at Christmas time'.

Penillion 1, 2, 3, a 12 yn unig a recordiwyd. Y mae fersiwn arall ar hon yn fwy hysbys yng Nghymru: fe'i hadwaenwyd (ac yn y Gogledd yn enwedig, efallai) fel 'Y Cyntaf Dydd (Y Dydd Cyntaf) o'r Gwyliau' neu 'Y Betrisen'. Ceir gwahanol fersiynau hefyd mewn Saesneg (The First Day of Christmas') a Ffrangeg. Dywaid ODNR, 122, i enghraifft gael ei chyhoeddi yn Saesneg tuag 1780 ac mai chwarae cof–a–fforffed ydoedd honno. Dichon mai rhywbeth cyffelyb oedd y fersiynau Cymraeg hwythau mewn cyfnod cynharach. Gwyddys, er enghraifft, fod 'Y Cyntaf Dydd o'r Gwyliau' yn gân orchest; yn gân gynyddol y ceisid canu rhannau ohoni ar un anadl (ac felly yn gyflymach a chyflymach fel yr ymestynnai'r penillion yn raddol). Mae'n dra thebyg ei bod yn draddodiad cystadlu ar ei chanu yn ystod gwyliau'r Nadolig, onid ar Ŵyl Ystwyll (6 lonawr) yn benodol, yn union fel yr arferid cystadlu ar ganeuon gorchest o wahanol fathau ar Ŵyl Fair (2 Chwefror). Am enghreifftiau ychwanegol o 'Y Cyntaf Dydd o'r Gwyliau', gw. CCAGC, i, 175–6, a ii, 283–4. Ar y gân yn Lloegr a Ffrainc, gw. ODNR, 122–4.
