“Trisha’s Lullaby” from Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - composed by Akira Senju
“Trisha’s Lullaby” is the most melancholic version of what I like to call the Resembool motif (as in this melody almost always makes an appearance when the series returns to Resembool or shows it in flashback) mostly due to the orchestration in this cue. A rough translation from Latin to English follows:
Dormite liberi, (Sleep, my child,) Dulci pueri dormite, caloria et, (Dream sweetly in the) Comodus Vester lecti boni. (warmth and comfort of your bed.) Osservo te, semper te, (I watch you, always you,) Latus tui costa te, autem solus, mitite - (I hold only you to my breast, tenderly -) Latus tui hic sum. (I have always held you to me.) In Somninum plati (Carried away in your sleep,) Floridus plena, dormite liberi. (In a field of flowers, my children, sleep.) Dulci mei dormite (Sleep sweetly my child.) Mitite liberi, (Gently now,) Sine pater autem, mitite, liberi, (Without your father, children,) Visi te tua mater. (Loved only by your mother.) Osservo te, semper te. (I watch you, always you.) Latus tui costa te, liberi sine sentite - (Your heart I watch, may it have no pain -) Momentum dormite. (Sleep sweetly my child.) In conclave sine mater. (In the room without your mother,) Conclave dum dies saperis… (In the room until the dawn…)
