Ioan Gruffudd
The text along the border is the following verse from Suo Gan, a Welsh lullaby:
| Huna'n dawel, heno, huna, | Sleep in peace tonight, sleep, |
| Huna'n fwyn, y tlws ei lun; | O sleep gently, what a sight. |
| Pam yr wyt yn awr yn gwenu, | A smile I see in slumber deep, |
| Gwenu'n dirion yn dy hun? | What visions make your face bright? |
| Ai angylion fry sy'n gwenu, | Are the angels above smiling, |
| Arnat ti yn gwenu'n llon, | At you in your peaceful rest? |
| Tithau'n gwenu'n ol dan huno, | Are you beaming back while in |
| Huno'n dawel ar fy mron? | Peaceful slumber on mother’s breast? |
Christian Bale
The text around the border are the following lyrics from "Cowboy, Take Me Away," written by Martie
Seidel and Marcus Hummon and preformed by the Dixie Chicks:
I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
On a pillow of bluebonnets
In a blanket made of stars
Oh, it sounds good to me
Cowboy, take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free, oh I pray
Closer to heaven above
And closer to you
Jamie Bamber

The lyrics are from "Bangs" by They Might Be Giants:
Bangs
Are that on which the world hangs
I’m only holding your hand so I can look at your bangs
Bangs
Above your eyes your hair hangs
Blow my mind your royal flyness I dig your bangs
Bangs
To drape across your forehead
To swing concordant angles as you incline your head
And although I like you anyway, check out your haircut
A proscenium to stage a face that needs no makeup
Samuel West
The text along the border is Don Giovanni's aria from "Don Giovanni," shown below with an English version of the song (not an English translation. There's a difference):
| Deh, vieni alla finestra, o mio tesoro; | Come shining forth, my dearest, with looks of warm delight |
| Deh, vieni a consolar il pianto mio. | Shed joy as you appear, like morning beams of light. |
| Se neghi a me di dar qualche ristoro, | Mild shines your azure eye; |
| Davanti agli occhi tuoi morir vogl'io! | Your absence chilling night, love, in which I droop and die. |
| Tu ch'hai la bocca dolce più del miele, | O! let me hear that tongue, love, whose music thrills my heart. |
| Tu che il zucchero porti in mezzo al core! | Like notes by angels sung, love, when souls in bliss depart; |
| Non esser, giolia mia, con mi crudele! | And to your casement sing, illume my ravished sight, |
| Lasciati almen veder, mio bell'amore! | Like day the world surprising with morning's beam of light. |
Johnny Depp

The lyrics are from "Yo Ho" by Xavier Atencio and George Bruns :
We're rascals, scoundrels, villans, and knaves,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We're beggars and blighters, ne'er-do-well cads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Aye, but we're loved by our mommies and dads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Jason Marsden
(This one is slightly larger than normal, as I had a few too many bigger pictures, so I had to scan it in two parts and piece it back together in Photoshop. I also found out with this one that I don't like contact cement. It'll probably hold better, but the extra Elmers rubber cement rolls off when you're done, whereas you can still see this stuff.)
The lyrics are from Elton John's "The Panic in Me":
For when you are laughing
Like silver, like rain
You cool me, you soothe me
And love me again
For a few perfect hours
The world lets me be
You know how to calm down
The panic in me
