Hi,

Can anyone tell me the first word of this address?

Hi

It looks like Hyfryda. My Welsh is very poor these days but it could be a form of the Welsh hyfryd meaing lovely or beautiful.  Some of the true Welsh speakers might give a better translation.

There is a Welsh hymn Hyfrydol (breathtaking?)
