Llangynidr is a village in Powys, Wales, about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Crickhowell and 9 miles (14.5 km) south-east of Brecon. The River Usk flows through the village as does the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal on which there are four locks.

The village has two public houses, a church and two chapels.

Sir William Herbert, Knight of Raglan Castle was granted the manors of Tretower Castle and Crickhowell just after the accession of Edward IV in 1442.[1]. At that time this village was part of the manor of Tretower.
The land was then in the ownership of the Earls of Worcester until the nineteenth and early twentieth century when much of Llangynidr was part of the Glanusk Park estate[1].

Francesco Sartori / Andrea Bocelli / Alessio Bonomo - Poem by Andrea Bocelli
Mentre, come un gigante, fra le braccia
Fiero e felice stringo il mio piccino
E il corpicino tenero, innocente,
Fragile e vivo come un uccellino
Contro il mio petto preme,
Abbandonato, quieto e sicuro
Mezzo addormentato, per qualche
istante, quasi dolcemente
M'appare come in sogno il mio destino.
Così mi vedo vecchio e rassegnato
Seduto là , nel canto del camino
Ad aspettar con l'ansia
d'un bambino, la sera
Per vederlo all'improvviso
Rientrare con il dono d'un sorriso
D'una parola, d'una gentilezza
à come una promessa che consola
La gioia immensa di una sua carezza
Poi mi riscuoto e
già ho dimenticato
Ma dentro di me, l'anima rapita
M'avverte che quel bimbo appena nato
Già vale più della mia stessa vita.
⦠e restai davanti a lui per un po'
e ascoltai nell'aria poi l'afferai
Lui aprì la mano e poi
mi toccò il naso sfiorò la bocca
Io l'abbracciai ed il mondo girò di più
Intorno a noi ogni cosa poi fiorì
E restai davanti a lui per un po'
E fu li che il tempo ci ritrovò
Lui aprì la mano e poi mi toccò il naso
ed io sorrisi
Io l'abbracciai ed il mondo girò di più
Intorno a noi ogni cosa poi fiorì
Il mondo è un puntino di luce blu
Che gira e va con
il soffio degli angeli
Io l'abbracciai ed il mondo girò di più
Che gira e va con
