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.

Greatest film of all time, best child performance of all time.

[Rebbeka Cynthia]

It was shot down by American planes.

Batman: The Early Days

[poetaenlaluna]

This film is totally underrated, compared to the type of movies receiving oscars nowdays, this film would have win them all including christian bale as a child, he was outstanding.

[Drej drone]

Why did the plane explode, again?

[Iantorchwood94]

Even if he never talks, or doesn't appear very much, Nagata's a very deep character. There are very few characters that can translate so much things in such little appearance.

[Danny Keil]

My favorite part of this movie!

[The Best]

One of the most underrated movies of all time

[Danny Keil]

Funny and messed up at the same time! lol

[Rick Johnson]

Remember when I saw this in the theater---I was actually crying, feeling pity for the Japanese pilots. To be so proud and yet so desperate as to throw themselves at their enemies. Then the P-51's show up, I realize I was rooting for the wrong side!  Go, Cadillacs of the Sky!

[warrenaugust]

Brilliant and touching scene.
