Lyrics ►
Wolves asleep amidst the trees
Bats all a swaying in the breeze
But one soul lies anxious wide awake
Fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths
For your dolly Polly sleep has flown
Don't dare let her tremble alone
For the witcher, heartless, cold
Paid in coin of gold
He comes he'll go leave naught behind
But heartache and woe
Deep, deep woe

Birds are silent for the night
Cows turned in as daylight dies
But one soul lies anxious wide awake
Fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths
My dear dolly Polly shut your eyes
Lie still, lie silent, utter no cries
As the witcher, brave and bold
Paid in coin of gold
He'll chop and slice you
Cut and dice you
Eat you up whole
Eat you whole​

[delwarhussain]

You don't just look for this song, this song finds you ....when the time is right .

[captainnwalps]

“But one soul lies anxious wide awake”
Me at 4:00am: yeah that would be me love

[subjectdelta]

Why is this oddly calming, creepy and soothing?

[spes]

For those who do not know.
This lullaby is from polish game Witcher 3.
A bruxa (female vampire) had sung it before the witcher killed her...
Edit: My God! 1 thousand likes! My new record!

[fluffymyato]

If i had a voice like this, i'd be singing in the forest every night for shits and giggles

[happypotato]

"But one soul lies anxious wide awake"

Of course i know him, he is me

[Techverse]

Netflix Witcher: "Toss a coin to your Witcher"
CD projekt: Hold my Lullaby of woe

[Naitar]

The feeling that you're not alone
And something wicked's in your home
You hear a creak, a groan, a sigh
And suddenly you wonder why
The shadows seem to writhe and twist
As if some dark force can't resist
Then comes the scratching at the door
A sound that chills you to the core
You try to run, to hide, to flee
But the horrors won't let you be
They follow close, they're always near
Whispering secrets in your ear
Of all the things that you should fear
And all the things that you hold dear
So beware the terrors that lie within
And the horrors that hide beneath the skin
For once they've taken hold of you
There's nothing left that you can do.

[coldFury]

in some years we'll see comments with ''ooooh the nostalgia, my mom used to sing me this before i went to sleep''

[IshaaqNewton]

"He will chop and slice you
Cut and dice you"

What a wonderful way to make your kids sleep.

[cjhile]

*pauses song for a second outside at 4am and hears coyotes or many howling/screaming in the pitch black* ah. Yes. Demons.

[michaelzawadzki]

Stayed the night at a wolf sanctuary. Around 3am, I awoke to the sound of the wolves and coyotes howling back and forth with each other. INCREDIBLE sound!

[betreyaljustice]

this song fits a protagonist who goes mad and the villains become afraid of what he became

[gilgamesh]

Description says "This haunting song has also appeared in The Witcher 3."
Umm excuse me, this song was made FOR the witcher 3.

[redangelofpreventingharm]

So I played this more than I probably should've, and now kids sing it at bedtime.

I don't have children.

[belladonnathreadgill]

A child's laughter is so innocent, except when its midnight and you're home alone. Also if I ever have kids I'm so singing this to them every night hehe. ❤‍🔥💫

[zainiadnan]

Why is this my recommendation?
I don't know why. But I fu*kin love it

[xaphan]

It may be the fact that I am german, but I find this lullaby so soothing.

(For context: German childeren are often read traumatising bedtime stories, so we're not just used to it, but we're comforted by such things.)

[jsb]

Random kid in class: what music do you like?

Me: .. it’s kinda complicated ..

[darkxlost]

Listening to this song while surrounded by the nearby forest in 2 am is like experiencing a symphony of nature and music, where the mysterious allure of the woods intertwines with the haunting notes of the melody.
