Yes! It's the melody that the little girls sings in Nausicaa. I was trying to evoke childhood innocence and contrast it with the horrors of war.
Thanks for noticing!

I figured it out - it's an echo (variation?) of one of the main musical themes present throughout Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. I like its use here; thematically the film and the visuals it calls up relate to this piece well....

Very moving. I've heard the theme at 6:00 before... I'm trying to wrack my brain where I might have heard it.
