Lullabies: children's songs, folk songs, and nursery rhymes. Nostalgic songs for putting children to sleep.

Lullabies have existed since ancient times in every country—they’re songs for soothing children.

I’ve put together a list of many lullabies, from the kind you might have heard on NHK’s educational channel to arrangements of foreign folk songs.

I’m sure there are songs in here that you sang together with friends when you were a child.

If you listen again now with the mindset of returning to childhood, you might discover something new.

If you “struggle every time to put your child to sleep,” please try listening—and singing—these songs to them at least once.
