Był Sobie Król - Polish lullaby

The polish lullaby entitled Był Sobie Król – that can be translated to Once upon a time lived a King is a fairytale trapped in a song.The plot is long and poetic and tells the story about a King, a Princess and a Page that lived happily together amongst flowers and dreams, loving each other dearly. But then suddenly out of nowhere a tragedy occured: The king was eaeten by a cat, the page by a dog and the little sweet princess was eaten by a mouse. But so that the child that is listening to the song won´t be too sad because of this tragedy it must know this: the king was made of sugar, the Page was made of gingerbread and the princess was made of marzipan.
