"Wanderer's Lullaby" (Original Song) (Adriana Figueroa)

"Not all who wander are lost." -J.R.R. Tolkien

I have been looking for a lullaby that embodies what I want to say to my son. Found it. This is something I will sing to him as I rock him to sleep.

5 years ago, my dad played this song in the truck while driving our new dog home from the shelter. He was a very big dog, and stretched out across the entire front seat with his head in my dad's lap. He slept like a baby the whole way home with the summer breeze coming through the windows. Dad played gentle music to make him calm and happy. Early last saturday morning, I played this song for our dog again before he passed away. I loved him very much, and these first few days have been very hard. I feel empty without him, but I know he had a good life, even if his time with us was short. This songs makes me cry now, but it has two very beautiful and bittersweet memories attached to it. A hello, and a goodbye. I will miss you, Cain. Thank you for being my friend.

I think I found this song when I was 14-15 ish, I'm 19 now. Totally forgot this song existed. At the time I hated myself and wanted nothing but to not exist. I had tried to end it all multiple times and didn't succeed. I never thought I'd ever have a life or be able to find a job, and dropped out to focus on my mental health and get my GED. Now I have a job that is full time with benefits that I love and everyday I'm so glad I stuck around to make it this far. Things do get better and I never thought they would. But they have. Thank you

wish some one sang this to me when I was little. maybe I would have wanted to get up in the morning

One week and one day ago, I was sitting at my mother's bedside. She was in her last days. While the energy was sapped from her vibrant soul, and as she was in and out of sleep, I remained there ... waiting for two days to just see her eyes open once more, to hear her voice one last time. I had found this song while searching the web for lullaby's that my son would like to hear at night a month prior. He loved it and it made me think of her. So, as I sat there feeling all the memories of my childhood flood my mind until I didn't think my heart could take it ... I told her about your song and played it on my phone for her. I hadn't heard her speak in so long, but she said, "I'd like that." I heard it oh so clearly. I couldn't fight the smile from my face. We always loved to share music that we found with each other. A few seconds into the song she said, "It's pretty." I agreed and nodded, happy that I was gifted with hearing that faint voice of hers one more time. I then went quiet for her to listen. Roughly around 30 seconds before the song was over she rolled over to look at me. I saw her eyes. God, nothing was so sweet to me. I smiled and I told her it was okay, she could leave, she didn't have to hold on anymore. I told her, "I love you." The last of your melody played and she stopped breathing. And I wanted to thank you. Because I couldn't have asked for a better song for her to hear as her last. It's a beautiful song. I'm glad that she enjoyed it too. Thank you, so very much. It was a gift to hear this song and to share that moment with her. -Nia Rose

I am 63 years old, and I am still a masterpiece in the making! ❤️‍🔥🔥😎🔥❤️‍🔥

There's a reason this song seems to touch most everyone who listens to it. It speaks to the frightened child within each of us submerged still in every doubt and fear facing a tempest in what must feel like a cracked beaten shack erect from our own insecurities. It's the part of ourselves we try so desperately to hide from the world, lest the world sees and abuses our weakness. And in our desperation and spite we have convinced ourselves, as so did we the world that we are all grown up. Yet we weep, because these words in their simplicity, and infinite gentleness so unrelentingly tear down the mask we present to the world. "I see you", this message says. "And you are beautiful. You are precious. You are worth it. And the storm cannot, will not break you."

"Not all who are wandering are lost," -Somebody.

this song left me in tears for absolutely no reason

i was 13 when i first found this... 10 years later at 23, i still come back ever so often to calm myself with this song :') thank you adrisaurus!

I made an entire audience cry with this song. The theme was Coming of Age.

I listen to this song everyday and every night before I go to sleep. I'm diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, depression and have a horrible self esteem, resulting in me in a year round therapeutic day school, but whenever I listen to your lullaby everything seems to get a little bit better. It reminds me that I was born into this world for a reason and I can make a change.

The more I hear this the more it tears me apart, and yet it also puts me back together again.

I remember when this song first debuted on Adrisaurus’ channel. I was still in highschool, struggling with finding my place and staying sane despite my mom’s mental health problems. It brought me to tears, but gave me hope for a better future because I felt seen. Nearly two years ago, April 3, 2021, my dog Rosie passed away. She was the light of my life and made all of my struggles easier to deal with, so losing her was a big blow. I stumbled upon this song shortly after we left the vet and played it on repeat until I couldn’t cry anymore. Tonight, I stumbled upon this song again, and I’ve flooded with memories of how much my younger self endured. It’s taken me so long to get to the stable place I’m at now. I have a new puppy, I’m living independently, and even though there’s still a lot I feel lost about, I’m glad I can continue wandering. Thank you, Adrisaurus, for being one of the touchstones in my life.

"I'm not crying, I just have something in my eye!" "What's in your eye?" "TEARS!"

where the heck is the love button for this song?

This inspires me to write something... Sad, emotional, and long.... I really like songs that rid me of my writers block. And I thank you for that.

This song should be a love letter to all artists right now who are struggling in the current climate.

" All that is gold does not glitter Not all those who wander are lost The old that is strong does not wither Deep roots are not reached by the frost From the ashes a fire shall be woken A light from the shadows will spring Renewed shall be blade that was broken The crownless again shall be king." J.J.R Tolkien The Lord of the Rings
