Kian Lullaby
Dreamfall · Kian Alvane
The story in the song
This is my reimagined musical cover of the lullaby sung by Kian Alvane’s mother before her tragic death in Dreamfall Chapters. The original words already carry unbearable sorrow; here, I set them to haunting music, capturing the grief, hopelessness, and fatal love woven into her song.
This is not just a lullaby—it’s a farewell, a chilling memory of loss that shaped Kian Alvane’s story.

Lyrics
Sleep, child, sleep.
Sleep in your mother’s heart.
Let the wind blow and the rain fall,
Hear the executioner’s call,
Watch the traitor’s head roll,
As the Shadows take his soul.
Sleep, child, sleep.
We shall never part.
For we soon be free,
Together, forever,
In the cold, cold sea.
Hush, baby, hush.
Rest your head on your pillow, little one.
You'll be home with amah soon.
I've missed you, my child.
I've missed you here in the deep,
in the dark, in the cold.
Come to me, my sweet little Kian.
Come home.
Hush, Kian, hush.
Rest your head on the pillow.
You will soon be home.
In the deep, in the dark, in the cold.
Sleep, my child.
Sleep and never wake up.
We're waiting for you, all of us.
We're waiting in the deep, in the dark.
Join us here. There's nothing for you out there.
You belong here with amah,
in the deep, dark, cold.
Forever and ever.
