The lullabies such as this that were sung by mothers during the time following the Cataclysm reflect their search for peace and calm during that turbulent period. The music is full of rare and sorrowful melody, rich, colorful, and warm as any folk tune. Though a traditional standard for many decades, "Hush Baby, Sleep" achieved a resurgence of popularity when rumors spread that it was sung by the ancient ancestors of famed Hero of the Lance, Riverwind, shortly after the Cataclysm. However, since historical records during that time were haphazardly kept, the actual composer of this song remains anonymous.
