Dyma gariad fel y moroedd,
Tosturiaethau fel y lli:
Twysog bywyd pur yn marw -
Marw i brynnu'n bywyd ni.
Pwy all beidio â cofio amdano?
Pwy all beidio â thraethu'i glod?
Dyma gariad nad â'n angof
Tra fo nefoedd wen yn bod.

I rarely use pedals unless I know the piece real well and can add the pedal line.
I use the iQ6 Zoom dual mic on an iPhone for recordings done after 2019
