Fe wnaeth eu cyndeidiau adael Cymru i ddechrau bywyd newydd a chwilio am gyfleoedd newydd mewn byd newydd. Sefydlwyd Unol Daleithiau America ar gyfres o ddelfrydau sydd yr un mor berthnasol heddiw ag yr oedden nhw ar y pryd, sef ein bod ni i gyd wedi'n geni'n gyfartal, a bod gan bob un ohonom ni hawliau penodol – gan gynnwys hawl i fywyd, hawl i ryddid a’r hawl i chwilio am hapusrwydd.
“So on this Independence Day, I send good wishes from Wales to all Americans, and especially to the 10 million Americans who have Welsh ancestry. Their ancestors left Wales to start new lives and find new opportunities in a new world. The United States of America was established on a set of ideals that are as relevant today as they were then, that we are all born equal, and that we all have a certain set of rights – ‘that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’
