Cornwall norasmiy milliy madhiyasi
Soʻz muallif(lar)i Robert Stephen Hawker, 1826
Bastakor Louisa T. Clare, 1861

"The Song of the Western Men", shuningdek, „ Trelawny“ nomi bilan ham tanilgan, Kornish vatanparvarlik qoʻshigʻi boʻlib, Robert Stephen Hawker tomonidan soʻzlari yozilgan, musiqasi Louisa T.Clare tomonidan bastalangan. Sheʼr yozilganidan 100 yil oʻtib, 1826-yil sentyabr oyida The Royal Devonport Telegraph va Plymouth Chronicleʼda anonim ravishda nashr etilgan[1].

Cherkov aʼzosi Hawker xordan tashqari soʻzlar uchun mualliflikka daʼvo qilgan[2]. U bu uch satrda tilga olingan Trelawnyni 1688-yilda qirol James II tomonidan London minorasida qamoqqa olingan Bristol yepiskopi Sir John Trelawny deb taxmin qildi. Sir John Trelawnyni 1628-yilda parlament tomonidan qamoqqa tashlangan Kornish Royalist yetakchisi hisoblangan. Qoʻshiqda aytilganidek, Cornwall aholisi Trelawnyni qutqarish uchun aslida harakat qilishmagan. U London minorasida uch hafta qamoqqa olingan, keyin sudlangan va oqlangan[3][4].

Hawkerning sheʼri 1861-yilda Louisa T.Clare tomonidan musiqaga solingan[5]. Hawker Clarening sahnasidan yaratgan musiqasidan mamnun ediki, u keyingi muvaffaqiyat umidida unga yana bir sheʼrini yubordi[6].

Kornish tarixchisi Robert Morton Nancening soʻzlariga koʻra, „The Song of the Western Men“ 1807-yilda Napoleon Bonapart tahdid qilgan paytda yozilgan „Come, all ye jolly tinner boys“ qoʻshigʻidan ilhomlangan boʻlishi mumkin. Polshaga bostirib kirish vaqtida Cornwallda savdoga taʼsir qiladi.

1881-yilda Trurodagi soborga poydevor qoʻyish marosimida qoʻshiq Canon Harvey tomonidan "… bizning aziz Kornuollning milliy madhiyasi " deb taʼriflangan[7]. Qoʻshiq Cornwall regbi ittifoqi oʻyinlarida va boshqa Cornwall yigʻinlarida kuylanadigan muntazam sevimli qoʻshiqdir. Kornuolldagi baʼzi maktablarda bolalarga birinchi sheʼr va xor oʻrgatiladi, keyinchalik uni Murdoch kuni va Avliyo Piran kuni (5-mart) kabi tadbirlarda kuylashadi[8].

Trelawny

I
A good sword and a trusty hand!
A merry heart and true!
King James’s men shall understand
What Cornish lads can do!
And have they fixed the where and when?
And shall Trelawny die?
Hereʼs twenty thousand Cornish men
Will know the reason why!

And shall Trelawny live?
Or shall Trelawny die?
Hereʼs twenty thousand Cornish men
Will know the reason why!

Out spake their Captain brave and bold:
A merry wight was he:
Though London Tower were Michael’s hold,
Weʼll set Trelawny free!
Weʼll cross the Tamar, land to land:
The Severn is no stay:
With "one and all, " and hand in hand;
And who shall bid us nay?

And shall Trelawny live?
Or shall Trelawny die?
Hereʼs twenty thousand Cornish men
Will know the reason why!

And when we come to London Wall,
A pleasant sight to view,
Come forth! come forth! ye cowards all:
Hereʼs men as good as you.
Trelawny heʼs in keep and hold;
Trelawny he may die:
Hereʼs twenty thousand Cornish bold
Will know the reason why

And shall Trelawny live?
Or shall Trelawny die?
Hereʼs twenty thousand Cornish men
Will know the reason why!
