How can I animate the following:

Manipulate[
 m = 1.0;
 b1 = 1;
 b2 = 0;
 b3 = 0;
 {x1, x2, x3} = 
  a = b1*Cos[t]*{1, 0, -1} + 
    b2*Cos[Sqrt[(2 + Sqrt[2])]*t]*{1, -Sqrt[2], 1} + 
    b3*Cos[Sqrt[(2 - Sqrt[2])]*t]*{1, Sqrt[2], 1}, {t, 0, 5}]
balls = Graphics[{Black, 
   Line[{{0, 0}, {1, x1}, {2, x2}, {3, x3}, {4, 0}}], 
   Red, {Disk[{1, x1}, .1 Sqrt[m]], Disk[{2, x2}, .1 Sqrt[m]], 
    Disk[{3, x3}, .1 Sqrt[m]]}}, PlotRange -> {{0, 4}, {-1, 1}}, 
  Frame -> True, ImageSize -> {400, 250}]


Thanks for any help.
