Rosemary's Lullaby
"Rosemary's Lullaby", also called "Sleep Safe and Warm", is a musical composition written by Krzysztof Komeda for Roman Polanski's 1968 American psychological horror film Rosemary's Baby. In the original version vocals were performed by Mia Farrow, who also played the lead role in the movie.[1]
"Rosemary's Lullaby" was arranged by many musicians, including Leszek Możdżer, Emmanuelle Seigner and Tomasz Stańko. A heavy metal cover of the song was done by the band Fantômas on their album The Director's Cut in 2001.
Lyrics
Sleep safe and warm.
From my arms no power can take you.
Sleep safe and warm
Till my morning kisses awake you.
In the softness of the night,
Like a silver colored kite,
All your fears will fly and disapear
By morning's light.
La la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la la la la la la
Loving you as I love you,
Ev'ry night your whole life through,
I'll be gently watching over you
Sleep safe and warm.[2]
