Lyrics of Suo Gan:

Huna blentyn yn fy mynwes
Clyd a chynnes ydyw hon;
Breichiau mam sy'n dynn amdanat,
Cariad mam sy dan fy mron;

Ni cha' dim amharu'th gyntun,
Ni wna undyn â thi gam;
Huna'n dawel, annwyl blentyn,
Huna'n fwyn ar fron dy fam.

Huna'n dawel, heno, huna,
Huna'n fwyn, y tlws ei lun;
Pam yr wyt yn awr yn gwenu,
Gwenu'n dirion yn dy hun?
Ai angylion fry sy'n gwenu,
Arnat ti yn gwenu'n llon,
Tithau'n gwenu'n ôl dan huno,
Huno'n dawel ar fy mron?

Paid ag ofni, dim ond deilen
Gura, gura ar y ddôr;
Paid ag ofni, ton fach unig
Sua, sua ar lan y môr;
Huna blentyn, nid oes yma
Ddim i roddi iti fraw;
Gwena'n dawel yn fy mynwes
Ar yr engyl gwynion draw.


English translation:

Sleep my baby, at my breast,
Tis a mothers arms round you.
Make yourself a snug, warm nest.
Feel my love forever new.
Harm will not meet you in sleep,
Hurt will always pass you by.
Child beloved, always youll keep,
In sleep gentle, mothers breast nigh.

Sleep in peace tonight, sleep,
O sleep gently, what a sight.
A smile I see in slumber deep,
What visions make your face bright?
Are the angels above smiling,
At you in your peaceful rest?
Are you beaming back while in
Peaceful slumber on mothers breast?

Do not fear the sound, its a breeze
Brushing leaves against the door.
Do not dread the murmuring seas,
Lonely waves washing the shore.
Sleep child mine, theres nothing here,
While in slumber at my breast,
Angels smiling, have no fear,
Holy angels guard your rest.

I love these film and this is the best scene.

[BarracudaSP1]

In case you're wondering-

The Kamikaze guys are singing a piece called "Umi Yuukaba". It's an old song, so old it's apparently pre-imperial, so I hear.

[federicotezuka]

the kamikaze guys drink zake and scream "banzai...banzai...banzai" it would be something like "long live to emperator"

[TheBlake138]

Hard to believe that's Batman singing Suo Gan.

[takharov1]

Yes tell that to all the civilian victims in China , Korea and the Phillippines. All the Allied women and children mistreated by the Japanese. Not to mention the awful crimes of the Bataan death march, Laha airfield massacre and killing of Australian and Indian troops at Palit Sulong.

Not to mention the countless other atrocities the noble Japanese committed.

i never get tired of watching this movie

[SsgtVenere]

Even though they were our enemy in world war II, i respect all of them for their honor and gratitude to their country!

[2drewbaker]

It reharks the begining of the movie.

[TheSchizopodcaster]

@cannywf1 Pam dim? / why not?

[MrCaesarnapoleon]

The boy knows they are going to certain death so he is honoring their sacrifice and bravery. If you watch the Japanese Imperial officer he has tears in his eyes.
