Here be the wonderful song you have to listen to! (Embedding is for some reason gone, but PLEASE listen to the song while you read ;^;)
Byssan lull, koka kittelen full,
där kommer tre vandringsmän på vägen,
byssan lull, koka kittelen full,
där kommer tre vandringsmän på vägen.
Den ene, ack så halt,
den andre, o, så blind,
den tredje han säger alls ingenting.
Sanji didn't know what the words meant, but they rocked nicely in the air, lulling their bundle of joy and irritation to sleep. He leaned against the door frame, watching his husband stand bend over the cradle, singing. The foreign words rolled nicely over his tongue and lips, his husky voice sending small shivers down the blond's spine.
Byssan lull, koka kittelen full,
på himmelen vandra tre stjärnor,
byssan lull, koka kittelen full.
på himmelen vandra tre stjärnor,
Den ene är så vit,
den andra är så röd,
den tredje är månen den gula.
He had never thought this about Zoro before they became parents, that he had this good hand with kids. Damn, the man was even better than him. When the little one was tired or angry, the marimo just had to pick him up and cradle him in his arms and speak in that foreign language from the home country he would never speak about. No matter who you were and how much you prodded. This night, like every night, was no exception.
Byssan lull, koka kittelen full,
där blåser tre vindar på haven,
byssan lull, koka kittelen full,
där blåser tre vindar på haven.
på Stora Ocean,
på Lilla Skagerack
och långt upp i Bottniska viken.
He almost wanted to sleep himself, when he closed his eyes to listen to the last refrain of the song. There was such love and warmth in the words, that he couldn't help but want to know their meaning. Though, it might as well be simply Zoro's voice which did it. The song could be about bloody wars for all Sanji knew.
Byssan lull, koka kittelen full,
där segla tre skutor på vågen,
byssan lull, koka kittelen full,
där segla tre skutor på vågen.
Den första är en bark,
den andra är en brigg,
den tredje har så trasiga segel.
As the song trailed off, he opened his eyes again to look at the green haired man as he brushed his knuckles against the baby's cheek. When the man turned against him, he stopped leaning against the frame and stoop up straight instead to hold out his hand against him. Zoro took it, and pressed a kiss to his palm when they left the room and closed the door silently behind them.
“Who knew you'd be such a singer, marimo..”
“Shut it, ero-cook.” The nickname is followed by a small and happy grin, no malice between them at all tonight. Instead, they brush their lips together, sharing a gentle kiss.
“I just wonder what the words mean...?”
“Hah, you'll have to discover that for yourself...”
