Lullaby for a Princess Animation

Video Overview & Insights

Music Links

I owe you all some form of update. You all brought me so much kindness. Its only fair I let you on what has been going on with me after lullaby.
I got fired. Got a new job. found love. Bought a home. Married and got a beautifull daughter. She is 3 now. ( Time really flies.).
I look back at this project with much love. I have tried to start new projects. But the time I have to invest has been very little. I still draw from time to time, to keep my skill up. Perhaps when I find more time I can animate again. But for now my time goes to family, friends and job. Thank you for understanding. I hope the last years have been kind.
Greetings WarpOut

Description

Finally it is here!

3:52 Decade late, but the way Celestia stares at the moon just makes her look surprised, confused, and hurt; it’s almost like she’s questioning what happened, ‘Why is there a pony head on the moon? Where is my sister?’ as if she weren’t expecting the elements to banish her.

I’m more than likely reaching with that conclusion, but still!

— @amateur-production-s

My magnus Opus as it were, in production for over 2,5 years

With the help of Simbaro and Cmaggot on backgrounds

Watched it again after a few years

— @yurie_xd

we are proud to present the animation of the song by Ponyphonic

"Lullaby for a Princess".

This will forever be canon to me, idc. I know the song by heart!

— @localrainecloud

This animation is based on the background story of Celestia and Luna

as told in the mlp:FiM S1E1 opening. This Project started before the flashback scene in S4E1 where the same story is told.

I still come back to hear this, it's still beautiful to hear. It makes me cry and feel the song.

— @0.1BlueR0se.0

we tried to stay close to our vision but changed a few items to make our animation fit the cannon more. example: first the crown would fall instead of the ellement of magic.

but we decided to keep the mane pink.

I am a grown adult man now. I still come back to watch this semi-regularly.

This brings a deep ache to me in my heart because from the time I watched it when I was nine, to me beginning sophomore year in less than two weeks is such a flash of nostalgia. I remember the first time I listened to it, my step dad put it on as a lullaby to make me sleep easier for a few nights since it worked so well. Sometimes I come back just to be reminded of the good times I had. I think the saddest part of it all is that Warpout is probably never going to animate something like this again or any other project for that matter. Warpout has seemed to be moved on and focused on family.

I crashed my first car to this song :D

Absolutely gorgeous song, but around the 3 minute mark is when I got ran off the road directly into a washed out shoulder where the white line literally crumbled beneath my car, so every time I hear this song I tense up LOL. Great cinematic song for the moment, though, I have to say.

Siempre me parecio horrible que que celestia tenga el poder de levantar la luna deveria solo luna tener esa capacidad o que celestia tuviera que cada generacion encontrar a los mas poderosos para que la levanten o que luna desde la luna lo hacia naturalmente pero que lo haga celestia solo confirma que luna tenia razon y me parese muy feo que celestia pueda controlar el sol y la luna volviendo praticamente inecesaria a luna por mas de 1000 años

Fate has been cruel and order unkind
How can I have sent you away?
The blame was my own, the punishment, yours
The harmony's silent today
But into the stillness I'll bring you a song
And I will your company keep
'Till your tired eyes and my lullabies
Have carried you softly to sleep
Once did a pony who shone like the sun
Look out on her kingdom and sigh
She smiled and said, "Surely, there is no pony
So lovely and so well beloved as I"
So great was her reign and so brilliant her glory
That long was the shadow she cast
Which fell dark upon the young sister she loved
And grew only darker as days and nights passed
Lullay moon princess, goodnight sister mine
Rest now in moonlight's embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space
Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Luna, you're loved so much more than you know
Forgive me for being so blind
Soon did that pony take notice that others
Did not give her sister her due
And neither had she loved her as she deserved
She watched as her sister's unhappiness grew
But such is the way of the limelight, it sweetly
Takes hold of the mind of its host
And that foolish pony did nothing to stop
The destruction of one who had needed her most
Lullay moon princess, goodnight sister mine
Rest now, in moonlight's embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space
Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Luna, you're loved so much more than you know
May troubles be far from your mind
And forgive me for being so blind
The years now before us
Fearful and unknown
I never imagined
I'd face them on my own
May these thousand winters
Swiftly pass, I pray
I love you, I miss you
All these miles away
May all your dreams be sweet tonight
Safe upon your bed of moonlight
And know not of sadness, pain, or care
And when I dream, I'll fly away and meet you there
Sleep
Sleep
Sleep
