Glas ew an ebòrn. Rag fra nag ewa gwydn? Thew golow an howl gwydn. Ma'n ayr o scattra golow, etho hedhyw nag ero nei gweles bes glas. Nag eus ayr war an loor. Rag hedna nag eus ebòrn glas ena – ma ebòrn dû dhedhy. Glas ew an mor ewedh. Ma'n mor o tastewydnya an ebòrn, po martesen thew an ebòrn an myrrour. Nag ew ayr glas en gwrionedh, hag e'n keth maner nag ew dowr glas. Nag üjy golow an howl o trehedhes pub radn an aljow. Ma tell down ettans - gonyjow bal coth. Pur dhû ens. Nei a's gwel avel skeusow. Dastewydnyes e'n dowr ew an aljow ha'n skeusow ew dastewydnyes ewedh. Glas ew an ebòrn a-ûgh dhe'n tiryow holan, ogas dhe Heyl. Nag ew blou – thew loos – gen poster brâs. Ma semblans loos dhe'n dowr ewedh, ha ma skeusow brâs.

The sky is blue. Why isn't it white? Sunlight is white. Air scatters light, so today we are only seeing blue. There is no air on the moon. Therefore there is no blue sky there – it has a black sky. The sea is blue as well. The sea reflects the sky, or perhaps the sky is the mirror. Air is not blue in reality, and similarly water is not blue. The sunlight does not reach every part of the cliffs. There are deep holes in them - old mine workings. They are very dark. We see them as shadows. The cliffs are reflected in the water and the shadows are reflected as well. The sky above the saltings, near Hayle, is grey. It is not blue – it is grey – with a big thunder cloud. The water looks grey as well, and there are big shadows.
