This piece is in three sections : Lullaby, Love's Dream, and Grief. The music is full of sadness and expresses the feelings of a young mother who has lost her husband. As she sings a gentle lullaby to her little orphaned child, memories of past happiness flow thorugh her mind like a dream, and she is finally overcome with grief.
