Suo Gân: Ernestina Jošt’s Rendition of the Timeless Welsh Lullaby from Empire of the Sun

"Suo Gân" is a traditional Welsh lullaby used as the main theme in Empire of the Sun (1987), symbolizing innocence amid war.

Suo Gân (English Lyrics)

Sleep my baby, at my breast,
There is nothing to distress you.
With your daddy and your mammy close,
No harm will come to you.

Softly singing, time is near
For peaceful dreams to drift you.
Guardian angels guard your sleep,
From all harm will they defend you.

Do not fear the night so still,
Silent shadows gently falling.
Sleep in peace, the night is here,
Dreams of joy and love recalling.
