    A lot of ppl think that the "where have you buried all your children" part means that the children are dead, but it more refers to the survival instinct of a mother hare to bury her babies into the ground to prevent them from being caught by predators.
    Edit: first off why are there so many ppl recognizing my pfp uhhh
    But doing a bit of research I can make a few corrections to my statement.
    1. Someone said that hares do not bury their children, this is true, but hares actually leave their children behind at a certain age, usually coming back to feed them occasionally but not sticking with their children. This could be why whoever the hare could be talking to is asking where the kids are
    2. The term "harpy" is typically used to describe a Greek creature, but when you are called a "harpy," they think you are unpleasant or rude of some kind (interpret that how you'd like)
    3. Hares do not typically have a self defense mechanism, other than running away and using camouflage. So that lyric "fight and run away" could either refer children getting away from and overprotective mother or a hare escaping a predator, depending on the context.

      ​@PezFil1 that part could refer to the children getting away from their protective mother and exploring, a child doesn't really stay in a home forever unless the mother is that posessive

    The song 'Harpy Hare' by Yaelokre is a poetic narrative that explores themes of protection, freedom, and the complexity of maternal relationships. The Harpy, depicted as a loving yet selfish mother, hides her heart and tries to shield her children from a dangerous world. However, this excessive protection becomes a prison, where the children, symbolized by broken arrows, struggle to escape and find their own freedom.
    The Hare, who refuses to retell the story, represents a silent and patient witness. She observes the dynamics between the Harpy and her children, understanding the pain and desire for freedom that permeate this relationship. The repetition of the question 'Where have you buried all your children?' suggests an ongoing search for answers and understanding, both for the Hare and the Harpy's children.
    The Hound, serving as the lyrical voice, positions himself as an active observer, trying to comprehend and perhaps intervene in this dynamic. He recognizes that the Harpy's protection, though well-intentioned, is stifling and counterproductive. The music, with its metaphors of broken arrows and sterile curtains, paints a picture of a love that, in its attempt to protect, ends up causing harm. The final message is an appeal to the Harpy to allow her children to fly freely, accepting that true protection comes from freedom rather than confinement.❤

      It also can be taken into reference how some parents inadvertently end up neglecting and abusing their own children while trying to keep them safe.
      Even though the parents children are safe from making mistakes under their care (for the most part) they often strip their children of their chances to bond socially, learn to take care of themselves, grow, and develop life skills. Leaving the childern often defenseless once out of the nest

    It’s about overprotective parents.
    The part about burying your children isn’t because they’re dead, hares bury their children in the ground with air pockets so they don’t get eaten by predators
    And if you listen to the full song, it talks about how you can’t keep them safe forever. The mother (harpy hare) is trying to be too sheltering with her children, so the person singing that song is telling her to let it go, because one day she won’t be there for them.
    Also, harpy’s are creatures from Greek mythology (see, crazy chicken lady’s for further information) that, while they were said to eat people and be pretty violent, they apparently were very protective mothers

      I know it isn’t, but it just has so many lyrics that match up with FNaF, and I first heard the song in a FNaF video so I just associate it with FNaF. “Harpy Hare where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say” seems to match FNaF because William wore a bunny / *hare* suit before killing kids and stuffing / *burying* them, and the police never found them / *asking where they are* . The hare also seems to be a villain because it says that she stole arrows. Idk I’m just a random guy on the internet

      @@pinkzep8500 I wouldn’t say that the hare is a villain because the lyrics of this song:
      “she can’t keep them all caged they will fight and run away.” Means that they’ll fight or run away from the dangers.
      “She can’t keep them all safe, they will die and be afraid, mother tell me you will stay” means that she cannot protect them all from the dangers of the world by herself.
      Overall the meaning of this song summarized is basically that she tried really hard to keep them safe, yet they still went and faced the world by themselves, hope this helped.

    This song is about, a mother that is very protective of her children so she buried them underground to keep them safe and shield them from the dangerous outside world. But staying underground made it like a cage that they would never escape from, the song says “ She can’t keep them all caged they will fight and run away” the it says “ She can’t keep them all safe they will die and be afraid”, both of those lines in the song indicate how they wanted to be free so badly, and she couldn’t keep them down there much longer, now maker how much she thought the outside world was dangerous with predators and other deadly hazards

    It means a mother rabbit or hare buries her children in the ground to protect them (they actually do sometimes), yet the danger still manages to find the kids, pointing to the lyrics "Harpy hare, where have you buried all your children?" And "Tell me so I say" is a way of demanding something, so whatever is dangerous isn't just asking where the babies are. And the other lyrics in this part of the song are talking about how the children will escape and run or that the mother won't be able to protect her kids and that they will die. Hope this helps! Please like, I did this with no research, only memory of the song and some fun facts from my biography book :D

    I really enjoy seeing all of the different theories and interpretations of this song. I think it’s possible the song could be about a lot of different things. But I also think it’s important to factor in the intentions of the artist.
    Yaelokre has mentioned that their songs are tied to a story they’ve written. It’s a fantasy story that takes place in a world called Meadowlark. The main characters in the story are a band of children called The Lark. The members of The Lark are Cole, Clementine, Kingsley, and Perrine. There are also a group of important figures called The Harkers, consisting of The Storyteller, The Bellringer, The Enkindled, and The Croon. The Harkers serve kind of as mythological or almost diety-like figures, each representing something different. The Storyteller is meant to embody the spirit of storytelling, the magic and whimsy of childhood fairytales, the immortal but also ever-changing nature of stories that are repeated over and over through time, among many other things. Yaelokre themself often dresses up as The Storyteller (who looks like a scarecrow) when they perform, serving as the narrator for their performances. The Croon is a much more ominous presence. Not necessarily evil, but ominous. They embody entropy and apathy, the nature of things to get old, die, fade away, and be forgotten. Unfortunately, I don’t know much about the other 2 Harkers yet.
    But with all of that said, the important thing to remember here is that Yaelokre’s music tells the story (lore) of the fictional world of Meadowlark.
    But stories are also told within this story. The Lark are a band of essentially, young storytellers. And one of the stories that they often sing about is “The story of the Harpy and the Hare”. Obviously “Harpy Hare” mentions it, but so do the songs “The Hound” and “Heartebeast”. In a piece of writing, Yealokre explained that The Story of the Harpy and The Hare is about a ruler (queen) who once ruled over a kingdom of immortal people until one day she made a terrible mistake. She was foolish and didn’t listen to warnings that the Croon was coming, and would take her immortality away. And so the Croon came, and the queen and her people tried to fight him, but they lost. And their punishment was becoming mortal. In my personal opinion though, this story has a bittersweet ending. Stories are still told about the queen, her people, their kingdom, and the battle they fought. It is meant to symbolize how even when people die, stories have the power to carry on their legacy, giving them a different kind of immortality. The queen is symbolized as The Harpy or The mother. Her subjects are symbolized as Rabbits. And in a different piece of writing, Yaelokre mentioned the Storyteller can shapeshift, and often takes the form of a hare (this is why Cole wears a hare mask).
    So I believe that the Harpy is the queen, and the Hare is the Storyteller. In the song “Harpy Hare” the children of The Lark are calling upon the queen and the Storyteller to tell them the story of how the Croon came and took their immortality away. The repeated line “tell me so I say” is meant as “tell me so that I can retell the story”. And the message in all of this, again, is that people live on as long as their stories are repeated and passed down through generations. The Croon can never truly win as long as stories are retold again and again.
    As a final note, Yaelokre has said this song is meant to be like a nursery rhyme that the children of meadowlark sing, often not realizing it’s true gravity, since it happened so long ago. The Croon is still out there, and the children of Meadowlark still need to use their stories and their songs to fight against entropy, so that Meadowlark itself does not fade away. You as the audience have a role to play too. If you sing these songs and learn these stories, you too are helping to keep Meadowlark and it’s history from being forgotten.
    And this is the true genius of Yaelokre. They’re not just a musician. They’re a talented storyteller who has created an extremely engaging world that is essentially all about the importance of telling and retelling stories.

    it’s about a loving yet selfish mother who hides her feelings and tries to protect her children from the world that can be so dangerous. The kids are represented by broken arrows which is a lyric in the song and it basically says that while she try’s to “protect them” they go off anyway cause the “protecting” was more of her just keeping them from the world and isolating them. in the song it says “ they will die and be afraid” at a point so i think that’s her telling herself things so she can protect them

    For anyone wondering
    The song 'Harpy Hare' by Yaelokre is a poetic narrative that explores themes of protection, freedom, and the complexity of maternal relationships. The Harpy, depicted as a loving yet selfish mother, hides her heart and tries to shield her children from a dangerous world. However, this excessive protection becomes a prison, where the children, symbolized by broken arrows, struggle to escape and find their own freedom.
    The Hare, who refuses to retell the story, represents a silent and patient witness. She observes the dynamics between the Harpy and her children, understanding the pain and desire for freedom that permeate this relationship. The repetition of the question 'Where have you buried all your children?' suggests an ongoing search for answers and understanding, both for the Hare and the Harpy's children.
    The Hound, serving as the lyrical voice, positions himself as an active observer, trying to comprehend and perhaps intervene in this dynamic. He recognizes that the Harpy's protection, though well-intentioned, is stifling and counterproductive. The music, with its metaphors of broken arrows and sterile curtains, paints a picture of a love that, in its attempt to protect, ends up causing harm. The final message is an appeal to the Harpy to allow her children to fly freely, accepting that true protection comes from freedom rather than confinement.

    I used to believe the song had a dark meaning as if the children have already died and the mother has buried them in remembrance.
    After listening to the song more, science and nature actually intertwine with the lyrics. “Buried all her children refers to rabbits, bunnies burrow underground and yet hares don’t burrow they do leave the children underground sometimes when they have to leave under ground to protect them from predators. The children are “buried” underground as in at home and safe.
    The reason behind is to keep them safe and doesn’t want them to die. If you listen closely to the full song you can hear the struggle of raising children and trying to keep them all safe as the song says “mother you can’t keep them all safe they’ll die and be afraid” wich can show if the go out they could get extremely frightened and go into fright or flight mode and will most likely get attacked by a predator so keeping them inside is the best option.
    Another quote that proves this point is “You can’t keep them all caged they will fight and run away” emphasis the struggles of being a mother. It may seem to the children that there mum is being “unfair” and “boring” yet all she is really trying to do is protect them.
    Overall the song is very poetic and has a deep meaning while still being one of my favourite songs. Sorry that’s was so long not expecting anyone to read the whole thing. I got carried away I feel like I just wrote a whole essay 😅❤. Thanks x

    The song represents the mother, or "harpy hare" to bury her children into the ground to prevent them from getting attacked/caught or hurt. The harpy hare's children feel, once they're buried, that they have no free will, they are not able to be free again. The song uses the metaphors about broken arrows fleeing, "bum and broken" because they've been hidden for so long, finally being able to come out of the ground from hiding.

No one was interested. Some time later a kid forms a group with the same concept inspired by Harpy hair. They are performing songs. This one is about stories that haven’t been told yet by Harpy hair’s group. So the question: “Where have you buried all of your children?…”- literally meaning “where we can find your untold stories so we can sing about them?”

    This song is about a mother who wants to protect her children from the world so she buried them under ground for protection but under ground the children thought it was like a cage so that’s why the lyrics say “you can’t keep them all caged they will fight and run away” and then it said “she can’t keep them all caged they will die and be afraid mother tell me so I say” they said that bc it was meaning that the children wanted to be free so there was no more doing that because all children can’t be caged just because of the outside world. ❤
