What to tell us for a scared-of-the-dark lullaby
A few simple details are all we need to turn night into a friend.
Their name and age
Wren, four years old: we'll weave the name throughout the verses.
What feels scary
The dark rooms, the closed door, the quiet moments: mention the things that make them uneasy.
What makes them brave
Tell us about the bugs they love, the adventures they enjoy: contrast bravery with bedtime.
The gentle ending you want
Morning always coming, stars twinkling softly, a warm blanket of light: we'll close the song with a hopeful note.
A worked example
Meet Wren, our example night-time hero
Wren is invented, but the details show the kind of brief parents send us. Your own lullaby will be built from your child's story.
Wren
Four, brave with bugs, now a little scared of the dark when the light goes out.
- Loves ladybugs and beetles
- Finds the dark a bit wide like a mummy-width door
- Brave in daylight, needs comfort when lights are off
- Looks forward to sunrise every morning
What Wren's mum told us
Wren is four and has recently become scared of the dark: landing light on, door open 'a mummy-width'. She's brave about everything else, bugs included. We'd love a gentle lullaby about the dark being soft and kind, full of friendly things, and morning always coming.
A typical brief from a parent
Read the lyrics: The Night Grows Gentle, WrenLullaby · Soft female voice · Nighttime
Verse 1
Little Wren, the day is done,Soft goodnight to the golden sun,The landing light stays on for you,The door's still open, just a mummy-width through.
Refrain
Sleep now, Wren, the dark is kind,It tucks in stars and doesn't mind,It holds the world so soft and slow,And morning always, always comes, you know.
Verse 2
You're not afraid of buzzy things,Of beetle legs or moth wing things,So let the dark be just as small,A gentle blanket over all.
Refrain
Sleep now, Wren, the dark is kind,It tucks in stars and doesn't mind,It holds the world so soft and slow,And morning always, always comes, you know.
Bridge
The moon's a lamp for sleepy sheep,The shadows hum you soft to sleep,Somewhere close, an owl says goodnight,And keeps you safe till morning light.
Refrain
Sleep now, Wren, the dark is kind,It tucks in stars and doesn't mind,It holds you close, so soft and slow,And morning always, always comes, you know.
Outro
Hush now, Wren, the night's a friend,Close your eyes, let dreaming begin,The dark is soft, the dark is kind,And morning's already on its way to you, Wren.
Wren's lullaby weaves bravery with the calm of night, ending with a promise of sunrise.
What tonight could feel like
The gentle turning of night
Small moments that help the fear fade away.
The first soft note
Wren hears their name in a calm voice, the dark feels less big.
The friendly shadows
Lines about moonbeams and ladybugs turn the room into a safe garden.
The promise of sunrise
A final line that the morning always comes reassures and settles the mind.
