Lyrics
Personalize this songWhere the name comes from
Ka-yan shares its first character with names like Ka-ho - 嘉, often meaning 'excellent' or 'auspicious' - paired with 欣 (yan), meaning 'joyful' or 'delighted.'
Why this moment matters
A distant, familiar sound at night - a ferry horn, a train, a foghorn - has a strange way of making a child feel safer, not more alone.
The story behind this song
Somewhere out on the water a ferry sounds its horn, faint and far away, while she sleeps safe on land.
A bedtime song with a name in it
A slow lullaby built around one child's name: a good night song for bedtime, nap time and the last song of the day.
