• Once There Was a King (Polish Lullaby by Janina Porazińska)

“Once upon a time, there lived a king.
A princess and page together.
They knew no tears, they knew no fears,
They knew no stormy weather.

The king loved her so, the page loved her so,
They loved her each their way.
She loved them both with all her heart,
And more with every day.

But fate was cruel, and their demise,
A most uncanny slaughter.
A dog ate the king, a cat ate the page,
A mouse ate the princess-daughter.

Yet you should not fret, my darling child,
You should neither mourn nor cry.
The king was sweet cane, the page: gingerbread,
The princess was marzipan pie…”
