It's hard to believe that its been 7 years since this vid came out! Thank you everyone for your support and love! As for where I am right now, I'm working as a game developer for my own series set in a fantastical universe. It's got plenty of fun worldbuilding, lore, and all that good stuff. I've also learned 3D modeling and animation! If you'd like to check it out, I'm working on a UA-cam video series talking about the game as I develop it!

Hey thats really cool! actually your vid inspired me too. arround 3 years ago, when I first heard this melody (I heard it in a pokemon story), I set myself the goal to write my own story. It was the time when my "artistic eye" opened. the book-series is still not done but i wanna say thank you to you and the others who inspired me to start make my own music, drawings and book so I can one day make a movie ^^ if you're interested... The book is about a little puppy. He was found, on the verge of dying, by a traveling alchemist called Nano. The little pup lost all his past memorie andbecause its fur was pitch black with some weird red glowing markings, Nano called him "Shadow". They both set the goal to figure out what Shadow is, where he's from and how to bring him back. but as time progressed, Shadow learned that he is meant for something bigger. Through old tales and flashbacks to his old self (he doesnt know that its his past life tho), he learns that something (him) released a big curse on accident once and was banned from his place. He was only allowed to come back when he made up for his sin. Wich he does by sacrificing himmself in a big war (but at that point he's already a bit older).
@@avaarrow7478 it's going. I more and more realize how little people are interested in the book. Most are interested in the plot but don't want to read an entire book to know it. I'm thinking of turning it into a graphical novel. It has the benefit of not having to explain scenes (which I'm really bad at) and it's way more expressive but I can't draw that well yet so if I go that route, I'll probably use blender to model everything and render it into 2d-styled pictures. May I ask why you asked? Just out of curiosity ☺️
@@avaarrow7478oh thank you. Sadly it's not even close to done. The story can be split into 3 "acts". I'm not even fully done with the first one. But if you'd like, we can stay in touch. Every help (and simply friends) are always welcomed 😊
As a fandom we have quite often wondered: Why do Celestia and Luna call themselves princess’s instead of queens. I think if a story like this was canon. Then the reason the two princess’s don't call themselves queens, is to honour their parents; as if to say: “you will always be king and queen to us.”
Wow! I love this headcanon, and I'm will throw away all the canon stuff about that "queen Celestia" or "queen Luna" sounds cruel, this must be the official because it is much better :D Thank you for the feels :D
Actually they don't say king and queen because they were following Disney tropes, and the kings and queens tend to be evil in Disney, hence King Sombra and Queen Chrysalis
Saddest thing to add onto this. Even nightmare moon called herself a princess. Even as an evil being Luna refuses to call herself a queen bc of her parents
Celestia was "Empress Celestia" or "Queen Celestia" (I don't remember) but they changed for "Princess" because they thought little girls would like it more
I would love a My Little Pony spin-off that stars Celestia as a filly and we get to watch her grow up and learn friendship and life lessons just like Twilight. The series could end when Celestia learns the harshest lesson of all and has to banish her sister, or better yet, it could end when Celestia disowns Sunset then takes Twilight as her new student/successor. That would tie everything together beautifully.
I don’t care what anyone says. This series brings me a slimmer of comfort of my childhood. I’m a young adult but always be nolstogic. Thank you for giving this to us.
I remember listening to this song 1-2 years ago and loving it. I haven’t heard it since then but little snipets of it plays in my head so I decided to visit this. I’m going to sing this to my kid as a lullaby when I’m older and have an actual kid, I really love this song
This may sound stupid. I see all these comments about people who were important but for me it's my precious girl Serena. She's a 15 year old cat I have now. We're going to put her down Monday if she doesn't die naturally on Sunday. Every day since I've had her I've always been able to come home and say "where's mama's girl?" She's helped me through so much stuff in my life especially because my teenage years involved being bullied severely and forced to move to a new school. She was there in high school too when things got tough with an especially toxic relationship. Now she's on the verge of dying. I've lost other pets, even a dog I had for 14 years that I grew up with and even his death does not affect me as much as hers. My heart feels as if's it being broken into two. I'm sobbing while I play this for her, because she is my little sunshine and I don't know how I'm going to manage without her. I won't be able to come home and say "where's my baby girl?" and have her walk up to me. I also won't be able to say "good night baby girl, mama loves you." At the moment I don't even want to sleep because I'm afraid I won't get to say goodbye to her. Even after losing my grandfather earlier this month, it was nowhere near as bad because I had time to come to terms with it. I'm sorry for pouring all this out on UA-cam but this song is giving me the emotional let out I need.
It's alright. I was able to hold her as she passed away naturally by our Christmas tree today. This song was one of the last things she heard me sing to her.
Shannon Cropper I once had this adorable little rottie mutt my mom and sister found abandoned on the road when I was in the 7th grade. She was only 5 or 6 weeks old. immediately, she became my little puppy. we called her "Shadow" because she followed our other dogs like a shadow. she'd listen to only me. we'd play everyday, she'd pose when I said, "picture". after our other 2 dogs died, Nicky of old age and Oddesy from cancer in her nose, she was the only dog and enjoyed the extra attention. 9 years later, she developed cancer. we knew she would suffer if we let her life out her life. so, we gave her her fav treat, a bit of sliced cheese and took her to the car. the next day, she was put down and we cried, but not even a month after we lost her, my step-dad went out and got a new dog. he didn't care that we JUST lost a dog. he actually said, "I'm glad she's got. that mutt was too dangerous." aside from biting his hand when she was teething, Shadow never bit anyone and if anything, the new dog bites EVERY ONE who touches it's paws and it knocked my niece onto the concrete and nearly sent her to the hospital. to this day, I miss Shadow.
I remember, back when I was about 7 or 8, my mum and dad were going to war. On my last night with her, after she said goodnight to my sister, she just sang this old lullaby to me, like back when I was a baby. It was very similar to this. Fast forward several months, we get the news that they perished. After that, we had to go live with our uncle, who was cruel to us. Every night, my sister, Lucy, used to beg me to sing the lullaby. Now, I have my own daughters, and I sing this to them in their cot at night. When they are older, I'll tell them about their grandparents, but for now, I just want to watch my sunshine and moonbeam grow.

I cannot expres how desperately I would want to see an animation for this beautiful song. Never once has a fandom song actually made me cry before, that is ........ until now. Baasik's music can do no wrong. Ink Rose, you are an amazing songwriter and singer. It's clear throughout just how much effort and passion you've put into this song
It is little things like this is the reason why I joined this fandom. As much as I like the show, the amazing creativity through art, animation, and music is why I became a Brony in the first place. Thank you ink Rose. Sometimes, I do need a reminder every once in a while.
Damn FEELS!! Also, I know this is supposed to be the Empress singing to 'Tia, but I also thought it would fit another pair of ponies: 'Tia and Sunset Shimmer when Sunset was still 'Tia's student... (before the whole stealing Twilight's Crown and turning into a raging she-demon/Equestria Girl thing)
+Ink Rose im curious Ink did you hear what happened to my best friend yesterday my friend's mom die yesterday and you upload THIS song today thats crazy i love the song anyway good work girl
very well done. this entire thing had me in tears. congratulations on a job very well done. this song was very beautiful. and the art work was astounding. thank you for this video. you are the best:)
The first time I listened to this song I started to cry...it has deep meaning and this song somehow speaks my soul since I'm not good at expressing my feeling. Everyday I would listen to this song and sing it whenever I have a chance
I remember watching this soooo long ago. I think I was here when it first came out! I’ve been starting to deep dive back into the mlp songs in the fandom. I left years ago, and coming back to this one really hits home lol. Before, I was just 11 years old, now I’m 16. I loved mlp so much, and this song really highlighted my time in the fandom. I remember first watching this at Panera bread, and being in Aw. I just want to say thank you for giving me one of my prominent memories from my childhood!
It's stuff like this that makes me miss singing. I did, a long time ago...but my music teacher, who was practically my mother in many ways, and the only person who ever showed support for something I enjoyed doing (I have no family and was never adopted - kids with health issues seldom are) was killed in a plane crash, and after she died I just...didn't want to sing anymore. Sometimes I still want to sing again, especially listening to stuff like this, but my voice has changed a lot and I haven't sung in so long that my voice is just...terrible now. I can't remember how to sing anymore.
+Fae Touched I'm very sorry for your loss. losing someone very close to you must be very hard. Hopefully someday you will try again. Hopefully you find some inspiration to do so. If you must relearn how to sing then take your time. If I may ask, How are you feeling? You don't have to answer if you don't want to.
Just sing when you need it and desire . Sing for recall them souls.. Sing for recall them smiles. Sing for you my friend. Sing for holding the hope one day to day.. Believe it. Hugs from México. Never give up
This just brings a tear to my eye, I cannot imagine how it must feel to live alone without any family, you have all my condolences, I sing sometimes though it isn't very good, If you feel like singing, sing
I was listening to my MLP playlist on shuffle and this song still brings me to tears. But the next song I heard was "now that I'm coming home" and it fit almost like a transition to a musical.
I only cry when I get really happy or really sad, and you just gave me both. This is so beautiful, I even shared it on my facebook. I need tissues right now.
this made me cry because my dad use to call me sunshine and he sadly passed away when I was 8 then my mom got a boyfriend and I became distant and cold towards her... now both my mom and dad are gone and I live with my brother... he calls me moonlight because I always look at the moon and say "I love you mom, I love you dad..." it's stupid I know but this song hits really close to home..
+Moon Nebula Your comment really struck me hard. I know how it means to lose someone. I will pray for you and your brother. Even though my comment is late, I hope my comment helps you.
I saw this this video two months ago it made me cry like a baby, a month later I sung this song to my little cousin when she was in hospital the funny part is that her name is sunshine so the it was perfect. everyone in room stared to crying and clapping even the doctor and nurse. they ask me where did I hear this song and told to look you up. now every time I babysit her, she wants me to sing this song to her before bad time. thing you so much for making this, because of this song my little sunshine got better. : )
I was feeling so stressed from finals and suddenly I started singing lines from this. Its crazy cause I haven't listened to it for years but it was really comforting to listen again.
+Ink Rose If Hasbro finally makes an episode that delves deeper into Celestia and Luna's past, I would hope they come to you to get this song, because it perfectly shows the love that their family had. Eat your heart out, Daniel Ingram!
you know ink rose you should make another version of this except using luna and her dad and using a song called tears of an angel Edit: WOW 3 years ago. It's July of 2020 now and I'm up at 5:53 am. Still haven't slept and I gotta wake up at 7am.
I love it... tear jerker for sure, but inspiring too. I saw in my minds eye, just before Celestia sang to Luna, the Empress instructing a trusted guard to protect them at all costs as she was leaving. At the end of the video, when little Tia is singing it to Luna, the image that popped into my head was the two sisters cuddled together under the light of the sun/moon, depending on which was awake to raise their celestial body, and their mother and father were there in spirit watching over them with proud smiles on their faces.
I love this song so much that I sang this to my dog, my dog has cancer and I felt like it was her last night with me. I know I will sing this to my children, when I have some. I wish there was more music videos with Celestia's parents. I hope they make another mlp series just about Luna and Celestia and how their childhood was. But over all thank you for this beautiful song.
I have never cried so freely until i heard this song, its beyond beautiful. I can hardly even write this as i cry. Thank you for making this, its breathtaking. So much emotions in this. I i simply dont have enough words to say. I love this, never late it fade
I haven’t listened to this song in years and I’m bawling rn. I used to listen to this anytime that I was sad or felt alone, it would even help me fall asleep. I still remember every lyric to this day. I find it so amazing that this song means a lot to other people. It’s done so much for me and I’m glad to see other people enjoying it too.
I sang this song to my best amazing cousin she loved it she cried and the thing is I'm like the moon and she is like the Sun she sang this back to me when I was crying except she said little moonbeam that made my day I sang the song all day everyone said for me to sing the I went to the middle of the room and sang it everyone loved it and said where did you learn that song I said ink rose made the song so thank you for creating the song
It's 2:11 am and- what? No, of course I'm not crying. I'm just dabbing at my eyes with tissues because this song is amazing. No, the tissues are not wet. You must get your eyes checked sometime.
Ok I just realized this now! Imagine Female Robin singing this to little Lucina before she and Chrom go off to the war, THEN Imagine Lucina singing the Celestia part to Morgan! (I'm a very big Fire Emblem Nerd)
Firstly, you're voice suits this song perfectly. I'm serious, the natural tone of your voice is so perfect for it. Second, I love the simple yet intricate animations. Ink Rose, you are amazing. You are one of the reasons I became a part of this fandom. Thank you for all of the amazing stories, animations, and songs you have shared with us. 💖
As I'm singing along to this, I feel like I'm singing to the spirit of my dead twin James who died before birth... Thank you for making this link Ink. :")
Whoa... I mean, I expected wonderful things from this video, but this blows those expectations out of the water. Now I want to hear this in the show. BRAVO!! :')
+the MINING BROS ad you know THAT will never happen! I wish it would, though! Also, I wish that we would get an image of Celestia with her baby pink hair on the show.
This is beautiful. My mom passed away a few years ago and on Celestia's turn to sing, i sung it to my little sister who was in a hospital. All went silent when i finished and than..I heard clapping from the docturs, nurses, everyone! I want to thank you for making this so wonderful. Keep up the good work!
I've started loving this song but every time I watch the animatic I tear up. There's power in art, be it music or visual art. This invokes quite a bit and I love it.
This brings back memories, some really good memories. About the times my own mom would sing me songs and tell me it would be fine whenever I am troubled with something. It was an incredible time, when the world was a joyful place with the largest sorrow being our cat hiding from me under the couch. So many people I've met back then, all were friends. We would play together all day and nobody would treat somebody as inferior or different. Only now I see how beautiful those times were, before they were taken away from me by mere people I loved the most and replaced with a life of endless pain, sorrow and loneliness. I can barely even feel anything towards other people now. How broken have I become...
I told the mother of my nieces about the song and she asked who it was and I said " Well it's from my favorite youtuber , Ink Rose'" Thank you guys so much this song is perfect for my little nieces and they both love this song I don't know the right words to describe this song
This deserves to be in a movie. Beautiful, just beautiful, it just gives me that lovely feeling that i used to get from all the old classic animated movies. And believe me a lot of stuff has failed to impress me before.
this is a real hidden gem. they should do a segment on the show about the two princesses and their history. Maybe the CMC's have to interview her for a school project?
Wow, that was amazing. Great singing, entrancing story, and just the right amount of animation to get an idea of the story. The feels are strong with this one; I'm crying right now!
I love this lullaby, I’ve been singing the moonbeam part to my new daughter who’s named after a moon goddess, there are parts that are relivent to what’s going on in the world currently I just hope that when my moonbeam is older this lullaby will be just that a lullaby
First time I listened to this, I nearly cried. Next couple of times I listened, I managed to keep it together. Now, a long time later, I listened again, AND I NEARLY BURST INTO TEARS!!!! Keep doing what you do, InkRose! I rarely ever cry when watching a video on UA-cam, but this came really damn close! Just goes to show how beautiful and amazing your work is. You're awesome!
When I first heard this song I was going through a really bad part of my life and it made me cry then. So now a year later I'm humming the song as I go to bed and then look it because I'm thinking to myself "Where have I heard this song before?" and as I find the song an start listening to it I started singing along only to end up crying again. Thank you SO very much Ink for making such a great song!!!! Hopefully next time when I sing this song I won't start crying, though I don't see that happening. Thank you again!
Dear Sisters above you are the evil mistress of the feels. Every time I watch this it gets me. A beautiful piece brought together excellently by a simple, but very poignant animatic.
It gonna may sound stupid but after all that happend, I feel more bad for Celestia than for Luna. Sure Lune may felt really misunderstood and that all, but on the other Side is Celestia who gaved her best to keep the Harmony together, to protect her People, try to her people smile, being a good Sister. But then Luna turned her Back to her and broke the Harmony, so letting Celestia no other Choice and after she unwilling banished Luna as Nightmare Moon into the Moon, Celestia was 1000 alone with the regret for wasn't a protectiv Ruler and even worse Sister[what Celestia really not is], but most she had the Regret to not being able to keep the Harmony heal. I hope nobody call me Stupid because I write my Opinion and Thoughts down, because I'm tired to read always Celestia is the Guilty for all. Not only because Celestia is my favorite Princess but I find this pretty unjust to only punish Celestia. Why is comment this under this Song because the Song reinforced my Opinion about Celestia even more.
To me, they were both the victims. As you said, Celestia tried her best to succeed and excel at everything especially being a good sister. On the other hand, or in this case hoof, Luna always felt abandoned and unloved, and shunned by her sister since she was always so busy. That's just how I see it. Like you, I'm just stating my opinion.
Celestia was the victim, she had the weight of a world on her shoulders, literally, no one can be perfect, sometimes you have to sacrifice something for the greater good.
Cause of Celestia putting her people first. Like keeping a promise to her parents, She didn't spend a lot of time with Luna. Making Luna feel abandoned, and misunderstood.
I'm going to sing this song to my children when I have them. This is a beautiful lullaby. It also gives me feelings because oh my gosh it makes me miss my mom, who used to call me her little sunshine. Beautifully done!
I love it when the Empress sings it, but for some reason the nasally sounding voice of little Celestia is like nails scratching on a chalkboard for me...XD
Ink, Ink, Ink.... I'm slowly having to take back what I said about your personality. It takes character to weave a song that delves so deeply into maternal care. You pulled off some pretty hard notes with the mother portion of the song. The waver in pitch when you say Radiance is an important key to hit. It's a compliment, so it's meant to have an emphasis. That's one of the three ultimate keys I saw you hit to perfection. I'm gaining respect for you, girl. Please, keep it up.
This song is absolutely timeless, and it will never lose its beauty, nor will it stop cutting onions in our faces. It is a great piece of work, and I feel it should be canon, or at least in the headcanon in every member of the fandom. It has such high quality, it really deserves an animation
I'm Not gonna cry...... I'm crying! This is a beauitful song and the pictures were beauitful, after I heard this the first time i just started singing this and I think I'm gonna sing this to my niece when she goes to bed. Great work! Absolutely brilliant!
I remember when I was younger I first listened to this song. I was like 9 at that time so I didn't understand anything. Coming back to this song, now understanding it, makes me cry a lot. I myself don't have a very tragic story but I can share one! My mother has had a very hard time and fell into a big depression. She would also care for my brother and I but not herself. When we were still hungry, she would give us her food, when we needed help, she would try her best to help. She is Japanese so she doesn't understand English culture much. She still spoke English for us. It came to the point where my mother was almost the same weight as my brother, and we became worried for her. She insisted and the thought of my mother giving everything up just for her kids, makes me sad. She would've had two other grown children, but they died when they born due to complications. My brother almost died but I was the only one that was quote on quote "perfect". She didn't want the same thing happening so she spoiled us. We aren't spoiled now, but I miss the times when she spoiled us XD. But my father and mother had a divorce, and she moved back to Japan. I was devastated and I miss my mother a lot. Having really nothing tragic happening to me, this was something hard to overcome. My father got a girlfriend and started to neglect us.. But my mother would always care for us and would take care of us even with the distance. She still spoils us but we insist. I will get to see my mom soon, but due to her health and age, I'm afraid it won't last too long. But this song reminds me of my mother. I really love this and despite it being MLP, I'm listening to it everywhere no matter what.
Celesta's mother is singing her a lullaby but saying goodbye to her at the same time and celesta is singing the Same lullaby to Luna and saying that she'll always be there for Luna. such a beautiful song and video. ink Rose you've done it again.😊

Shannon Cropper I am so sorry reading this reminded me of my pet hedgehog Daisy which I had for 6 or 7 years she died over the summer ;(
Shannon Cropper I cried just reading this. I'm sorry for your loss😢
Shannon Cropper I once had this adorable little rottie mutt my mom and sister found abandoned on the road when I was in the 7th grade. She was only 5 or 6 weeks old. immediately, she became my little puppy. we called her "Shadow" because she followed our other dogs like a shadow. she'd listen to only me. we'd play everyday, she'd pose when I said, "picture". after our other 2 dogs died, Nicky of old age and Oddesy from cancer in her nose, she was the only dog and enjoyed the extra attention. 9 years later, she developed cancer. we knew she would suffer if we let her life out her life. so, we gave her her fav treat, a bit of sliced cheese and took her to the car. the next day, she was put down and we cried, but not even a month after we lost her, my step-dad went out and got a new dog. he didn't care that we JUST lost a dog. he actually said, "I'm glad she's got. that mutt was too dangerous." aside from biting his hand when she was teething, Shadow never bit anyone and if anything, the new dog bites EVERY ONE who touches it's paws and it knocked my niece onto the concrete and nearly sent her to the hospital. to this day, I miss Shadow.
I remember, back when I was about 7 or 8, my mum and dad were going to war. On my last night with her, after she said goodnight to my sister, she just sang this old lullaby to me, like back when I was a baby. It was very similar to this. Fast forward several months, we get the news that they perished. After that, we had to go live with our uncle, who was cruel to us. Every night, my sister, Lucy, used to beg me to sing the lullaby. Now, I have my own daughters, and I sing this to them in their cot at night. When they are older, I'll tell them about their grandparents, but for now, I just want to watch my sunshine and moonbeam grow.
Gaudian Mudbath this is touching 😢
Cool story
Touching feels
Gaudian Mudbath I cried when I read this,.. I'm sorry. I may not know you, but I have a strong feeling that you're a great mother..
Isn’t that a narnia book
This is "Lullaby for a Princess" levels of fantastic. I love it!
+Nathan Price That's a big honor, thank you :)
You're very much welcome.
у аинза тоже есть магия времени он может понять что субару делает и нарушить работу сейвов но это и не нужно простите конечно но субару лох а аинз бог буквально да аинз просто может обездвижить субару и дать ему сверх реген и всё умереть не выйдет а значит сейв не сработает
The mom part made me cry because THE MOM CRIED T^T
Ara Reyes same then celestias reaction when she disappeared
Yeah me too
Not me
Why you gotta go make me cry Ink...that was just pure beauty. Nice job to you and the others for making this!
Don't worry! I with the feels recovery unit! 📦 the tissues are in the box.
hi
love you bliss
love you bliss
I love you bliss also if you haven't already can you do yourself rainbowfied like the mane six in twilight's kingdom pt.2 if you do thanks
I cannot expres how desperately I would want to see an animation for this beautiful song. Never once has a fandom song actually made me cry before, that is ........ until now. Baasik's music can do no wrong. Ink Rose, you are an amazing songwriter and singer. It's clear throughout just how much effort and passion you've put into this song
It is little things like this is the reason why I joined this fandom. As much as I like the show, the amazing creativity through art, animation, and music is why I became a Brony in the first place. Thank you ink Rose. Sometimes, I do need a reminder every once in a while.
Damn FEELS!!
Also, I know this is supposed to be the Empress singing to 'Tia, but I also thought it would fit another pair of ponies:
'Tia and Sunset Shimmer when Sunset was still 'Tia's student... (before the whole stealing Twilight's Crown and turning into a raging she-demon/Equestria Girl thing)
Agreed
A HUGE special thanks to Baasik ua-cam.com/users/Baasikmusic and JoshScorcher ua-cam.com/users/joshscorcher for helping a TON with this!
+Ink Rose im curious Ink did you hear what happened to my best friend yesterday my friend's mom die yesterday and you upload THIS song today thats crazy i love the song anyway good work girl
Oohh! You collaborated with Baasik! Love his music.
very well done. this entire thing had me in tears. congratulations on a job very well done. this song was very beautiful. and the art work was astounding. thank you for this video. you are the best:)
+Ink Rose Ah this gave me chills! So beautiful! Another wonderful piece!
Would it be all right if I made a PMV using this song?
The first time I listened to this song I started to cry...it has deep meaning and this song somehow speaks my soul since I'm not good at expressing my feeling. Everyday I would listen to this song and sing it whenever I have a chance
I can feel it! This song is going to be animated as good as lullaby for princess was! :)
+Lunarocks Productions That would be awesome!
+Ink Rose ya! 😄👍
+Lunarocks Productions Already on it, bro.
+Koolkat1337 lol wow can't wait to see it! 😄
+Lunarocks Productions Got a long way to go, developing character sheets right now.
I remember watching this soooo long ago. I think I was here when it first came out! I’ve been starting to deep dive back into the mlp songs in the fandom. I left years ago, and coming back to this one really hits home lol. Before, I was just 11 years old, now I’m 16. I loved mlp so much, and this song really highlighted my time in the fandom. I remember first watching this at Panera bread, and being in Aw. I just want to say thank you for giving me one of my prominent memories from my childhood!
(reads comments)
Hmmm... Baasik? Ink Rose? You think we went a little overboard with the feels?
Lol
"i'll not always be here" yeah just a hundred thousand noches too far
What? Wha..Naaaahhh! Feels overboard? Naaaaaah you? Naawwww u crazy -sniff- (totally still not crying on the inside)
+DaWillstanator lol XD
+DaWillstanator lol XD
It's stuff like this that makes me miss singing. I did, a long time ago...but my music teacher, who was practically my mother in many ways, and the only person who ever showed support for something I enjoyed doing (I have no family and was never adopted - kids with health issues seldom are) was killed in a plane crash, and after she died I just...didn't want to sing anymore. Sometimes I still want to sing again, especially listening to stuff like this, but my voice has changed a lot and I haven't sung in so long that my voice is just...terrible now. I can't remember how to sing anymore.
+Fae Touched I'm very sorry for your loss. losing someone very close to you must be very hard. Hopefully someday you will try again. Hopefully you find some inspiration to do so. If you must relearn how to sing then take your time. If I may ask, How are you feeling? You don't have to answer if you don't want to.
Just sing when you need it and desire .
Sing for recall them souls..
Sing for recall them smiles.
Sing for you my friend.
Sing for holding the hope one day to day..
Believe it.
Hugs from México.
Never give up
This just brings a tear to my eye, I cannot imagine how it must feel to live alone without any family, you have all my condolences, I sing sometimes though it isn't very good, If you feel like singing, sing
We currently stand in the midst of the first "Lullaby for a Princess". I swear Rose, you're gunna make me pull a "WarpOut"
+Koolkat1337 I hope so ;)
Don't tempt me. I will. I will drop this next animation project and start working on an animatic.
+Koolkat1337 I was thinking that! I was like, this is the next lullaby for a princess 😂
+Kat Platinum Because it is. ^_^
+Koolkat1337 Lol
I was listening to my MLP playlist on shuffle and this song still brings me to tears. But the next song I heard was "now that I'm coming home" and it fit almost like a transition to a musical.
I only cry when I get really happy or really sad, and you just gave me both. This is so beautiful, I even shared it on my facebook. I need tissues right now.
(Hands you some Kleenuxes.) I need some myself. :'-(
📦📦📦📦 don't worry! I'm with the feels recovery unit! I'm equipped with tissues. They're in the box. Can I use a few? *sniff sniff*
this made me cry because my dad use to call me sunshine and he sadly passed away when I was 8 then my mom got a boyfriend and I became distant and cold towards her... now both my mom and dad are gone and I live with my brother... he calls me moonlight because I always look at the moon and say "I love you mom, I love you dad..." it's stupid I know but this song hits really close to home..
😭😭😭😭😭 its so sad to not have mom and dad😭😭😭😭
so sorry 😭😰for ur lost
+Moon Nebula Your comment really struck me hard. I know how it means to lose someone. I will pray for you and your brother. Even though my comment is late, I hope my comment helps you.
Bethany RowdyDark thank you
Moon Nebula no problem, I'll always support you. :)
STOP CUTTING ONIONS IN MY ROOM
XD
LOL
Don't worry! I'm with the feels recovery unit! Do you need tissues?! I'm prepared if you do.
+Ac Donelan hahaha same
OMG you guys! Just found this! Look at the comment section!
the-rift-cafe.wikia.com/wiki/Ink_Rose
i cried when celestia started singing...
MLP BlackHeart Same that was so unexpected
That’s how to tug heartstrings
I saw this this video two months ago it made me cry like a baby, a month later I sung this song to my little cousin when she was in hospital the funny part is that her name is sunshine so the it was perfect. everyone in room stared to crying and clapping even the doctor and nurse. they ask me where did I hear this song and told to look you up. now every time I babysit her, she wants me to sing this song to her before bad time. thing you so much for making this, because of this song my little sunshine got better. : )
OMG THAT REALLY TOUCHING MY HEART!!! IT ALMOST MAKE ME CRY :'-(
im glad she is ok
That's so sweet ❤❤❤ I'm glad she's okay now ❤❤❤
...dammit, who's cutting these onions!! 😢😢😢
That's so sweet! Glad she's OK!
Why did the cousin go in the hospital?
The lyrics haven't even started, and I'm almost crying, this is so beautiful :3
I was feeling so stressed from finals and suddenly I started singing lines from this. Its crazy cause I haven't listened to it for years but it was really comforting to listen again.
3:38 *cries* Sees Luna part: Awww, cute! I guess it's ending happily then...
Sees 6:22 The onion cutting intensifies 1000 times!! :(
Same...
Work hard this year, musicians/singers in this fandom cuz it's going to be pretty hard to top this for Best Brony Songs of 2016!!
+Aleximus Prime XD
+Ink Rose seriously though, that was adorable and now I have diabeetus. :P
+Ink Rose If Hasbro finally makes an episode that delves deeper into Celestia and Luna's past, I would hope they come to you to get this song, because it perfectly shows the love that their family had. Eat your heart out, Daniel Ingram!
+Tabitha Yeshin (Starryeyes) um.......thanks but I'm not the one who made this. ^^;
+Aleximus Prime I was talking to Ink, sorry for the misunderstanding.
Oh man, the nostalgia hit on this! I remember when this came out. The simplicity is beautiful.
I am witnessing a huge success! This song might be as good as "Lullaby for a Princess".
+Moonfire Thank you so much. :)
WOAH.
D'aaaw that was a really sweet song you all put together. Very nicely done. All deh warm fuzzies ^///^
Omg!! You've read that book too!? Warm fuzzy is a book reference!!
+DaWillstanator I agree. If this song were in the show, that would be awsome!
I NEED IT IN DA SHOW BECAUSE I WANNA REVEIW AN EPISODE AND THIS SONG TOGETHER
you know ink rose you should make another version of this except using luna and her dad and using a song called tears of an angel
Edit: WOW 3 years ago. It's July of 2020 now and I'm up at 5:53 am. Still haven't slept and I gotta wake up at 7am.
Makenzie Bretelson I think it is better with Celestia and then her passing it to Luna.
Crossing Moons I like that idea too! 😄
PhoenixWing513 I can probably make that song if you want! :3 But i will need singers.
SatekiOcean I could be a little kid Luna maybe
@@NicoWaifu have u made it? :
I love it... tear jerker for sure, but inspiring too. I saw in my minds eye, just before Celestia sang to Luna, the Empress instructing a trusted guard to protect them at all costs as she was leaving. At the end of the video, when little Tia is singing it to Luna, the image that popped into my head was the two sisters cuddled together under the light of the sun/moon, depending on which was awake to raise their celestial body, and their mother and father were there in spirit watching over them with proud smiles on their faces.
This, Lullaby for a Princess and Confrontation of Luna and Night need to be in a MLP musical.
Ive hit loop so many times to the point where no matter what video im on this comes to my recommendations
Saaame
The ending hit me in the feels ;-;
I love this song so much that I sang this to my dog, my dog has cancer and I felt like it was her last night with me. I know I will sing this to my children, when I have some. I wish there was more music videos with Celestia's parents. I hope they make another mlp series just about Luna and Celestia and how their childhood was. But over all thank you for this beautiful song.
I have never cried so freely until i heard this song, its beyond beautiful.
I can hardly even write this as i cry. Thank you for making this, its breathtaking.
So much emotions in this. I i simply dont have enough words to say. I love this, never late it fade
Well, didn't need my heart, or any hydration that I have wept out... thank you very much
I haven’t listened to this song in years and I’m bawling rn. I used to listen to this anytime that I was sad or felt alone, it would even help me fall asleep. I still remember every lyric to this day. I find it so amazing that this song means a lot to other people. It’s done so much for me and I’m glad to see other people enjoying it too.
I sang this song to my best amazing cousin she loved it she cried and the thing is I'm like the moon and she is like the Sun she sang this back to me when I was crying except she said little moonbeam that made my day I sang the song all day everyone said for me to sing the I went to the middle of the room and sang it everyone loved it and said where did you learn that song I said ink rose made the song so thank you for creating the song
It's 2:11 am and- what? No, of course I'm not crying. I'm just dabbing at my eyes with tissues because this song is amazing.
No, the tissues are not wet. You must get your eyes checked sometime.
Why didn't I get here sooner? This is a beautiful song.
Ok I just realized this now! Imagine Female Robin singing this to little Lucina before she and Chrom go off to the war, THEN Imagine Lucina singing the Celestia part to Morgan! (I'm a very big Fire Emblem Nerd)
Firstly, you're voice suits this song perfectly. I'm serious, the natural tone of your voice is so perfect for it. Second, I love the simple yet intricate animations. Ink Rose, you are amazing. You are one of the reasons I became a part of this fandom. Thank you for all of the amazing stories, animations, and songs you have shared with us. 💖
As I'm singing along to this, I feel like I'm singing to the spirit of my dead twin James who died before birth... Thank you for making this link Ink.
:")
Whoa... I mean, I expected wonderful things from this video, but this blows those expectations out of the water. Now I want to hear this in the show. BRAVO!! :')
Same
+Oscar Stainton If something like this was in the show it would push so many boundries. It could also finally give us a Celestia based episode.
+the MINING BROS ad you know THAT will never happen! I wish it would, though! Also, I wish that we would get an image of Celestia with her baby pink hair on the show.
+THE GAMING BROS We need one of those.
It’s 2024 and this still has me tearing up :(
This is beautiful. My mom passed away a few years ago and on Celestia's turn to sing, i sung it to my little sister who was in a hospital. All went silent when i finished and than..I heard clapping from the docturs, nurses, everyone! I want to thank you for making this so wonderful. Keep up the good work!
How could you, InkRose-senpai!?
Don't you think we had enough tears upon watching Lullaby for a Princess!?!?!
*grabs a handkerchief and weep*
feels...... celestias face when her goes away...
I've started loving this song but every time I watch the animatic I tear up. There's power in art, be it music or visual art. This invokes quite a bit and I love it.
This brings back memories, some really good memories. About the times my own mom would sing me songs and tell me it would be fine whenever I am troubled with something. It was an incredible time, when the world was a joyful place with the largest sorrow being our cat hiding from me under the couch. So many people I've met back then, all were friends. We would play together all day and nobody would treat somebody as inferior or different. Only now I see how beautiful those times were, before they were taken away from me by mere people I loved the most and replaced with a life of endless pain, sorrow and loneliness. I can barely even feel anything towards other people now. How broken have I become...
I told the mother of my nieces about the song and she asked who it was and I said " Well it's from my favorite youtuber , Ink Rose'" Thank you guys so much this song is perfect for my little nieces and they both love this song I don't know the right words to describe this song
This deserves to be in a movie. Beautiful, just beautiful, it just gives me that lovely feeling that i used to get from all the old classic animated movies. And believe me a lot of stuff has failed to impress me before.
this is a real hidden gem. they should do a segment on the show about the two princesses and their history. Maybe the CMC's have to interview her for a school project?
THE FEELS, MAN! What is up with you and the FEELS????
Don't worry! I'm with the feels recovery unit! 📦 I have tissues! Would you like to go to the feels recovery hospital?
+Lps Rose quartz productions 919 I would, but my insurance won't cover it!
+Lambeo Rolfe It's free so don't worry. Here have a treatment 💉 hold still this will only pinch a little bit for just a second.
Oh no, I do NOT DO SHOTS! I say thee NAY!
+Lambeo Rolfe ok. How about this one 💊 its chewable.
I left the fandom four years ago, but this song still make me cry, like wtf? 🥲
Wow, that was amazing. Great singing, entrancing story, and just the right amount of animation to get an idea of the story.
The feels are strong with this one; I'm crying right now!
I had a dream where this was taken down. Im glad it’s still up
Damn it Ink Rose I started to cry it's so beautiful thank you I love it
I love this lullaby, I’ve been singing the moonbeam part to my new daughter who’s named after a moon goddess, there are parts that are relivent to what’s going on in the world currently I just hope that when my moonbeam is older this lullaby will be just that a lullaby
Oh my god! My feels! IT HURTS.
I love it!!
The feels! I can FEEL THEM!!!
So beautiful!
Damn this is touching....amazing art and singing. Love it!!
There are NO words to describe just how BEAUTIFUL this song video is. Bravo Miss Rose! Bravo!
OMG THIS THING MAKES ME ALMOST EMOTIONAL but I still like it
First time I listened to this, I nearly cried. Next couple of times I listened, I managed to keep it together. Now, a long time later, I listened again, AND I NEARLY BURST INTO TEARS!!!! Keep doing what you do, InkRose! I rarely ever cry when watching a video on UA-cam, but this came really damn close! Just goes to show how beautiful and amazing your work is. You're awesome!
Dang it i almost cried. And no i don't blame you +Ink Rose, i blame myself for listening to a sad song.
When I first heard this song I was going through a really bad part of my life and it made me cry then. So now a year later I'm humming the song as I go to bed and then look it because I'm thinking to myself "Where have I heard this song before?" and as I find the song an start listening to it I started singing along only to end up crying again. Thank you SO very much Ink for making such a great song!!!! Hopefully next time when I sing this song I won't start crying, though I don't see that happening. Thank you again!
3:41 Jeez, rip my heart out why don't you Ink Rose?
Autum Breeze
Same
I cried the first 80 times I watched this. The feels get you right in the heart. Beautiful work Thank you
Dear Sisters above you are the evil mistress of the feels. Every time I watch this it gets me. A beautiful piece brought together excellently by a simple, but very poignant animatic.
that was so good yet so sad. I literally cried in real life listening to that. Nice job Ink Rose.
the sun and moon versions are really beautiful . good job
It gonna may sound stupid but after all that happend, I feel more bad for Celestia than for Luna. Sure Lune may felt really misunderstood and that all, but on the other Side is Celestia who gaved her best to keep the Harmony together, to protect her People, try to her people smile, being a good Sister. But then Luna turned her Back to her and broke the Harmony, so letting Celestia no other Choice and after she unwilling banished Luna as Nightmare Moon into the Moon, Celestia was 1000 alone with the regret for wasn't a protectiv Ruler and even worse Sister[what Celestia really not is], but most she had the Regret to not being able to keep the Harmony heal.
I hope nobody call me Stupid because I write my Opinion and Thoughts down, because I'm tired to read always Celestia is the Guilty for all. Not only because Celestia is my favorite Princess but I find this pretty unjust to only punish Celestia.
Why is comment this under this Song because the Song reinforced my Opinion about Celestia even more.
To me, they were both the victims. As you said, Celestia tried her best to succeed and excel at everything especially being a good sister. On the other hand, or in this case hoof, Luna always felt abandoned and unloved, and shunned by her sister since she was always so busy. That's just how I see it. Like you, I'm just stating my opinion.
This hit me right in the heart when I heard it Because I lost my great-grandma like celestia and luna I really miss her
Celestia was the victim, she had the weight of a world on her shoulders, literally, no one can be perfect, sometimes you have to sacrifice something for the greater good.
Cause of Celestia putting her people first. Like keeping a promise to her parents, She didn't spend a lot of time with Luna. Making Luna feel abandoned, and misunderstood.
This song is amazing. It is one of the few songs that has made me cry because of how beautiful it is.

I'm going to sing this song to my children when I have them. This is a beautiful lullaby. It also gives me feelings because oh my gosh it makes me miss my mom, who used to call me her little sunshine. Beautifully done!
I love it when the Empress sings it, but for some reason the nasally sounding voice of little Celestia is like nails scratching on a chalkboard for me...XD
(GASP!)
sebastian banguis Ah, I know, unpopular opinion. xD
this deserves more views...someone keeps cutting onions on my desk.... and blasting me with FEELS!
It's been forever since I heard this song, but it still makes me cry! ❤
I almost cry every time Celestia's mom tears up. Love this song!
BEAUTIFUL!! Wait a minute what is this wet stuff coming from my eyes?!?! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😢😢😢❤️❤️
I think it's tears lol
Ink, Ink, Ink.... I'm slowly having to take back what I said about your personality. It takes character to weave a song that delves so deeply into maternal care. You pulled off some pretty hard notes with the mother portion of the song. The waver in pitch when you say Radiance is an important key to hit. It's a compliment, so it's meant to have an emphasis. That's one of the three ultimate keys I saw you hit to perfection. I'm gaining respect for you, girl. Please, keep it up.
2020 any- AW WHO AM I KIDDING I CAN'T STOP CRYING 😢
This song is absolutely timeless, and it will never lose its beauty, nor will it stop cutting onions in our faces. It is a great piece of work, and I feel it should be canon, or at least in the headcanon in every member of the fandom. It has such high quality, it really deserves an animation
You hit me right in the feels! ;-;
This has to be my favorite song in the fandom, Thanks Ink Rose!
The voice, picture, music have given me the feels! 😭 Great job to everyone who worked on this. 😉
I'm with the feels recover unit! 📦 tissues?
+Lps Rose quartz productions 919 Thank you! *Blows my nose into a tissue.*
+Shane Williams Would you like s feel recovery treatment? We have needles or chewable pills.
+Lps Rose quartz productions 919 No thanks, I have recovered!
What can I say, this is just beautiful. Like a little piece of moon, glowing with silver rays, bringing light into the darkness.
awwww :'( wait why am I crying oh......there is a bucket of onions chopped
I'm Not gonna cry...... I'm crying! This is a beauitful song and the pictures were beauitful, after I heard this the first time i just started singing this and I think I'm gonna sing this to my niece when she goes to bed. Great work! Absolutely brilliant!
I remember when I was younger I first listened to this song. I was like 9 at that time so I didn't understand anything. Coming back to this song, now understanding it, makes me cry a lot. I myself don't have a very tragic story but I can share one! My mother has had a very hard time and fell into a big depression. She would also care for my brother and I but not herself. When we were still hungry, she would give us her food, when we needed help, she would try her best to help. She is Japanese so she doesn't understand English culture much. She still spoke English for us. It came to the point where my mother was almost the same weight as my brother, and we became worried for her. She insisted and the thought of my mother giving everything up just for her kids, makes me sad. She would've had two other grown children, but they died when they born due to complications. My brother almost died but I was the only one that was quote on quote "perfect". She didn't want the same thing happening so she spoiled us. We aren't spoiled now, but I miss the times when she spoiled us XD. But my father and mother had a divorce, and she moved back to Japan. I was devastated and I miss my mother a lot. Having really nothing tragic happening to me, this was something hard to overcome. My father got a girlfriend and started to neglect us.. But my mother would always care for us and would take care of us even with the distance. She still spoils us but we insist. I will get to see my mom soon, but due to her health and age, I'm afraid it won't last too long. But this song reminds me of my mother. I really love this and despite it being MLP, I'm listening to it everywhere no matter what.
😔😔😔😔
Celesta's mother is singing her a lullaby but saying goodbye to her at the same time
and celesta is singing the Same lullaby to Luna and saying that she'll always be there for Luna.
such a beautiful song and video. ink Rose you've done it again.😊
EXCUSE ME I DID NOT SIGN UP FOR THE FEELS TRIP WHY AM I SWEATING FROM MY EYEBALLS 😭😭 (great job btw)
This hit me so hard with feels, when tia starts with “Little Moonbeam” me heart dies every time, cant stop crying it’s so beautiful
