Suo Gân (pronounced See-oh-gahn) is a traditional Welsh lullaby written by an anonymous composer. It is perhaps best known as the intro to Steven Spielberg's film Empire of the Sun, where it is lip-synched by a young Christian Bale.

Lyrics - 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.
| - 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 murmurring 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.
