I'm going to try a song on the Netherlands Top 2000 and a song on Canada's 50 Tracks.

Three versions of a fairly classic Welsh lullaby I like.


YouTube - ‪Katherine Jenkins - Suo Gân‬‏


YouTube - ‪Suo Gan - John Wiliams‬‏


YouTube - ‪Suo Gan‬‏

According to Wikipedia an English adaptation is.

Sleep my baby, at my breast,’
Tis a mother’s 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 you’ll keep,
In sleep gentle, mother’s 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 mother’s breast?
Do not fear the sound, it’s a breeze
Brushing leaves against the door.
Do not dread the murmuring seas,
Lonely waves washing the shore.
Sleep child mine, there’s nothing here,
While in slumber at my breast,
Angels smiling, have no fear,
Holy angels guard your rest.

Two foreign language songs that contain lines or verses in English. Hopefully that's okay.
