- I'm so happy to be able to present to you guys a new GOT song, I've been wanting to do a really good version of this for a while but never found the time. In a way, I'm kinda glad I'm releasing it now to coincide with the new season.
**** Please note before commenting, I've had an awful lot of people complaining that I've "forgotten" the Stranger. There is no verse for the stranger in the original text, George never wrote one. As Sam said, "The stranger has no songs"

The Song of the Seven
Written by George R.R. Martin
- | LYRICS |-
The Father's face is stern and strong,
he sits and judges right from wrong.
He weighs our lives, the short and long,
and loves the little children
The Mother gives the gift of life,
and watches over every wife.
Her gentle smile ends all strife,
and she loves her little children
The Warrior stands before the foe,
protecting us where e'er we go.
With sword and shield and spear and bow,
he guards the little children.
The Crone is very wise and old,
and sees our fates as they unfold.
She lifts her lamp of shining gold
to lead the little children.
The Smith, he labors day and night,
to put the world of men to right.
With hammer, plow, and fire bright,
he builds for little children.
The Maiden dances through the sky,
she lives in every lover's sigh.
Her smiles teach the birds to fly,
and gives dreams to little children.
The Seven Gods who made us all,
are listening if we should call.
So close your eyes, you shall not fall,
they see you, little children.
Just close your eyes, you shall not fall,
they see you, little children.
The stranger lies in the unknown,
His grasp is true, his face is stone,
He comes for all, from street to throne,
He shepherds all the children
He shepherds all the children home 🏡🍀❄️✨
Amazing
Shepherds home the children?@@yikesidfk4710
Nice very nice
The Stranger's last to come to mind
Sometimes cruel and sometimes kind
His justice truly judges blind
He embraces all little children
This is the best one I've seen for the Stranger!
Awesome
I love that there is no song for the stranger ... The God to whom no one prays but whose hand reaches all of men
Valar Dohaeris

'The Stranger never sheds their tears
As they wait and watch and count our years
Their cold embrace will end all fears
So weep not little children'
My interpretation of the Stranger's verse.
Best one so far
Damn its a great one
"She lives in every lover's sigh" is just so beautiful. Such a lovely way to think of a Goddess of love
I agree
Compared to Aphrodite, who was more goddess of lust and desire as opposed to love, very much so. Mind, when you think about it, Aphrodite isn't much of a hurdle to clear.
"The Stranger is the one unknown
He wears a cloak with face unshown
He watches us from birth to bone
He waits for little children"
My version of what the stranger's verse might have been.
I really wish English had a gender-neutral pronoun- it would be perfect for times like these! We don't know whether the Stranger is male or female, do we?
Jess Caron You mean "it"?
Yellan De Greef It is used for things, not people.
Jess Caron The Stranger is referred to as male, as English is a language that uses masculine nouns when the gender is unknown, but the Stranger is neither a man nor a woman.
Ah. got it! Thanks!
I'm loving all the verses people are writing for the Stranger! So clever, and they all fit!
Ikr! They’re all perfect 🥰🥰
The best part of the comment section
Me too
The Stranger's face remains unknown.
He waits for all from slave to throne.
He's with us until we're all bone.
He guides home little children.
I love how everyone keeps putting their own verse for the stranger and all but it's absolutely perfect that the stranger is not mentioned because nobody prays to The Stranger.
The stranger passes without trace
with silent step and hidden face
to take us to a better place
So fear not little children
i love this one
The Stranger is the one unknown
With face unseen, and eyes of bones
Until their likeness etched in stone
It watches little children.
***** Thanks. I've just always wondered what the lyrics for the Stranger would be, and so decided to write my own.
***** Won't work, since Martin doesn't accept fan concepts. Still, thank you for the compliment. ^.^
agreed, love it. and karliene shouldnt the stranger be a bit creepy?
pffft, if his face is unseen, how do you know he has bone eyes? pfffft
What we know is that he is represented with a human skull.
The Father's face is stern and strong,
he sits and judges right from wrong.
He weighs our lives, the short and long,
and loves the little children
The Mother gives the gift of life,
and watches over every wife.
Her gentle smile ends all strife,
and she loves her little children
The Warrior stands before the foe,
protecting us where e'er we go.
With sword and shield and spear and bow,
he guards the little children.
The Crone is very wise and old,
and sees our fates as they unfold.
She lifts her lamp of shining gold
to lead the little children.
The Smith, he labors day and night,
to put the world of men to right.
With hammer, plow, and fire bright,
he builds for little children.
The Maiden dances through the sky,
she lives in every lover's sigh.
Her smiles teach the birds to fly,
and gives dreams to little children.
The Stranger is the one unknown
Who watches us from birth to bone
Until their likeness etched in stone
And waits for little children.
The Seven Gods who made us all,
are listening if we should call.
So close your eyes, you shall not fall,
they see you, little children.
Just close your eyes, you shall not fall,
they see you, little children.
The stranger verse fits perfectly
+Holly Elms agreed
Yeah, but no.
The concept of a many-in-one god/goddess is hundreds, of not thousands, of years older than christianity. Then again, the men who wrote the bible stole pretty much everything from the much, much older religions in and around the middle-east.
Nothing new under the sun, in this as in all things.
Nope, its all pseudo history what you said, and the Holy Trinity are not three gods in one, they are all one but three.
The Stranger is both foe and friend
And waits for us at journey's end
The hour isn't known but may be bent
Be ready little children
Perfect
The Stranger stands behind them all
with face shrouded from us all
waits for us both great and small
and takes the little children
“Just close your eyes, you shall not fall, they see you, little children”
OMG I’m in love with this line. It shows how much faith these people have towards their gods and they shall not worry even when eyes are closed, cause they are their children.
The Stranger is the dark unknown,
The empty breath of every moan.
Young and old from flesh and bone
He takes the little children.
~indy
The stranger walks without a face,
He takes all life, yet leaves no trace,
Whose shrouded hands, they all embrace,
Brings peace to little children.
Ooh I like that one
This wins
❤❤❤
I just realised this is as if the Maiden herself is singing the song, since it ends with “so close your eyes you shall not fall” as if she’s lulling them to sleep and she brings dreams to the children
The Stranger holds the end of man
He gives sweet rest from life's short span
And though His love beyond our scan
He sleeps the Little Children
The Stranger takes the form of smoke,
All wrapped inside the blackest cloak,
He brings both death and fear to folk,
And takes our little children...
The stranger shroud is black & deep
They meet all life & makes them sleep
Who breaks all men & has them weep
Brings peaceful ends to children.
The Stranger calmly waits for us
To lead us to peace from our lives
He appears when the time is right
To welcome little children
I love how everyone is trying to create their own version for the stranger.
here are my attempts to glorify death and the stranger.
The stranger takes us when we fall,
To his great golden shiny hall,
Bring long sleep to our tired saul
Don't be afraid, oh little children.
or
The stranger gives us final choice,
to take all misery from our life,
All your pain will vanish in a trice,
Just drink this, oh little children.
or
The stranger's hand are long and strong,
So don't run, it won't take too long,
now close your eyes and sing this song,
goodbye, oh, little children.
or
The last one has so many name,
To take his gift so many came,
Now we have come to take the same,
So don't cry, my little children.
or
The stranger's strike is swift and sure,
you can't run, not anymore,
it's time to yield, don't be unsure,
Come to me, oh little children.
Those are so amazing. Everyone had a part where I was like " Wow! That fits my idea of the stranger perfectly.". Thanks for sharing :)
I don’t know why, but hearing that the Father who represents judgement still loves the little children makes me feel glad
judges right from wrong ,hard judgements are needed you can't live forgiving like a mother or a maiden will do , you need to serve revenge and punishmentsto take back what was took unfairly.
to make it right forcibly even by committing crimes to help your family or country, men like those are going extinct in the first world , now days " what about the p*e*d*o feeling " your evil if you hurt people and that the end without even thinking more about it that some people must get hurt.
Celtic+Game of Thrones=beautiful and awesome music. Love your music!
I so wished this song got its own music and full version like Bear and the Maiden Fair and Rains of Castamere...
The Stranger is the God of Death
He watches us with bated breath
Until we're dead and laid to rest
He takes the little children
My own interpretation
The stranger's life is dark and old
Always passing, never judging;
A soul black as the Great Unknown
He takes away little children
The Stranger hunts for souls forlorn
Comes for you with a heart of stone
In the end, he walks alone
He takes the little children
Best version of this song yet! It sounds fitting to the 'time period' rather than modern and over produced.
The father is obviously Tywin.
The mother is Cercei, she's so awsome at bringing people together
Tyrion makes for a sweet warrior, and ol' Lysa is the obvious crone.
The smith is clearly Bronn. Built to last, that one..
oh and the maiden is Varys
Bronn is a very minor character
+Lenin Vladimir Jaqen H'ghar - The Stranger
Jozef Wicks-Sharp Who cares man? I'm currently imagining Varys homoerotically dancing through the sky in a long silky dress. How marvelous!
That is a marvellous image.
Lenin Vladimir I think yo must be right because as we all know, Varys is secretly a mermaid, or maybe even a mermaiden.
The maiden is either Varys or hot pie I know it
The Stranger works his deeds unseen,
It slayeth both the fat and lean,
It waits before the babes have weaned,
It destroys the little children.
When you meet the Stranger,
At the edge of death,
When your final breath is taken,
You'll meet them, little children.
May the Old Gods and the New give you strength to continue making these amazing songs. :)
Ever so pleasant to listen your voice on medieval and sword fantasy themes.
i love that all the comments adding a stranger verse have no synchronization to them, they're all different lyrics
I feel bad for the Stranger- nobody ever mentions him, except Syrio who's always brushing him off! :)
This is my favourite of your GoT songs. So beautiful, and you really made it sound like a children's hymn.
This is a beautiful lullaby-like song. The poem seems to be something straight out of classic mythology, and the harp intro reminded me of the Vulcan Lyre used on Star Trek. Speaking of which...have you ever thought of creating any Star Trek music?
The Father's face is stern and strong,
he sits and judges right from wrong.
He weighs our lives, the short and long,
and loves the little children.
The Mother gives the gift of life,
and watches over every wife.
Her gentle smile ends all strife,
and she loves her little children.
The Warrior stands before the foe,
protecting us where e'er we go.
With sword and shield and spear and bow,
he guards the little children.
The Crone is very wise and old,
and sees our fates as they unfold.
She lifts her lamp of shining gold
to lead the little children.
The Smith, he labors day and night,
to put the world of men to right.
With hammer, plow, and fire bright,
he builds for little children.
The Maiden dances through the sky,
she lives in every lover's sigh.
Her smiles teach the birds to fly,
and gives dreams to little children.
The Seven Gods who made us all,
are listening if we should call.
So close your eyes, you shall not fall,
they see you, little children.
Just close your eyes, you shall not fall,
they see you, little children.
Your music is my drug... seriously.
Azul C. Hernández same here. "I NEED MAH FIX MAN!"
"it ruined my life "
Azul C. Hernández I completely agree!!!
Azul C. Hernández It´s so beautiful
Mahmoud Jaradat how?
The Stranger we all forget
but nonetheless he has heart
He's unwanted guest but visits all
And when home is home no more, he'll protect you, children
The stranger is tall, dark and cold
They hold no hate
for young or old
And when you reach your final fate
You won’t be left alone little children
The Starks represent each of the Seven Faces of God.
Ned-The Father
Catelyn-The Mother
Robb-The Warrior
Bran-The Crone
Rickon-The Smith (Perhaps foreshadowing Rickon the Rebuilder?)
Sansa-The Maiden
Arya-The Stranger
Jon isn't one of the seven because he's a bastard or maybe a Targaryen
+Zack Trowbridge I reckon Jon represents all faces
The maiden is thouth snow? But upon her blessing was not the snow born . Or twas Rivers ? Or did her blessing giveth birth to Sand . Or the Waters and the Flowers?
Or R'hllor!
Doth not one believeth the Black Goat Of Yi Ti ?
Lerzid Marino What's that???
A man is surprised by this song, a man already liked!
A Girl tells a man, that in the song were only six gods.
A man tells a girl that nobody sings for the Stranger.
David Barrow A girl tells a man, that the comments say otherwise.
A man tells a girl that the commenters are filthy heretics.
A girl loves this string of comments. It made a girl laugh.
I love this melody Karliene. It makes me wish you were singing in the show, at one of the many celebrations, or as a slave Daenerys frees. Your voice would haunt G.R.R. Martin's soul.
The Stranger has no shape or name
Judges none and bears no blame
But brings an end to grief and pain
So fear not, little children
I posted this 11 months ago but it passed by unnoticed.
This is my interpretation for the Stranger as I am a devout worshiper of a Death Goddess it shows the true love of Death.
"The Stranger holds the end of man
He gives sweet rest from life's short span
And though His love beyond our scan
He sleeps the Little Children"
It's perfect.
"Sleep" as a transitive verb? You can do better.
I love how all the verses revolve around little children ❤❤❤
The stranger guides us when we fall,
Bring long sleep to your soul
See the world be inherited
By your little children...
First three lines should have rhyme
The Stranger wears a dark black cloak
A wooden staff that's made of oak
He takes your hand, once you have spoke
He claims the little children
^
Not in the book, but I made this up MONTHS ago for the stranger as +Keith Dumayaca said the first three lines always rhyme
None sings to thouth who brings death unless they wish its kiss or fear it . And yet the tere are some wish to have the power of death . For if thouth controls death , are you not stronger than sword , spear , and bow?
Tell me, from where are these quotes? ) o (
Made them up on the go
THIS SONG IS SO GOOD AND FOR WHAT LIKE I WANT IT ON SPOTIFY NOW
Such beauty you weave with your words. Your songs are truly such a beautiful blessing upon thine ears. I am a due hard fan of got since before it hit tv. And you do it proud. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us.
Dear Karliene ,
At first , I have to tell you : I'm french !
I'm just a ( pretty ) young girl : 15 years old !
I want to learn the english until I'm perfect to this tongue ( so if there are some mistakes , that's totally normal x/ )
I will just say one thing : I love your music !
It's ... how to say ... awesome ! I think it's celtic music , doesn't it ?
In France , there's not this music way ... I'm so saaaaad ... Hapily , you exist :)
I ( there are too much " I " in this message , sorry ) LOVE your songs about Westeros !
So I write my comment under my favourite song (
THis was so pure. I loved it. :)
or
C'etait si pur. J'adore! :)
Apprends-tu toujours l'anglais?
This warms the heart
or
Das erwärmt das Herz.
Learning languages is hard, but knowing it in the end is priceless.
Exactly what i needed when im about to work for 13 hours on a god damn saturday, thank you :)
This gotta be your best song yet i love it so much never stop please your voice is so amazing!
Well done arrangement. Love how others are making their own verse for The Stranger.
Thanks Karliene for stopping my headache with your voice.
I don't watch Game of Thrones, but even then I get excited when I see that you posted anything new, be it a cover or a fansong, because you do such a beautiful job. It's so enchanting~
I know what you mean. I don't watch GoT either (I tried but when they killed Sean I was over it, seems like they're killing everyone off) but Karliene's beautiful songs and voice is just... I think I've pushed repeat on this song 30 + times by now. :)
Wow. What a comment to come back to. Please look back at what you wrote and maybe see why that was very much a not okay thing to write.
Honestly, Robert's death was obvious; literally it was foreshadowed since episode one. Drogo and Eddard's deaths made sense as well; we'd have a very different story with both. Eddard was very main character-like, so killing him was supposed to be a message: things are messy. This is war and anyone can die at any times. In the privy, falling from a cliff, torn apart or poisoned. Drogo, again, sent the same message, and Dany's future and aspirations would not have worked as well as Drogo's wife.
Plenty of the main cast, both heroes and villains, are even still alive, even though we're all too aware that they could be killed. Except Tyrion. Knock on wood, but I suspect he'll out live everyone. Because George literally said he's his favorite character too...not that that makes him safe.
My favourite singer atm
Why are your songs so perfect?
Thank for your beautiful contributions to the fandom!
I love this song, it brings me peace... and hearing you is like hearing an Angel singing... Thanks for this beautiful piece of art ♥
I raise my banner to you, Fair lady. Your voice is truly spectacular and surely a gift from the mother and the maiden.
Hey Karliene, glad to see you do another GoT song! I absolutely am in love with this rendition of the song, you still have the voice of an angel. Keep up the great work, this truly is a masterpiece and it's perfect.
I am not big on Game Of Thrones (probably the only nerdy guy in the world who hasn't read the books or seen the series) but I absolutely love your music Karliene. I have learned from your music more about GoT from your music than any other source.
The only song you have done that I personally someone else did better is the Song of Beren and Luthien (check out the version Clamavi De Profundis did). But that is the only one.
The stranger waits us in the gloom
And at his wake impending doom
He puts us all into a tomb
He takes the little children
Karliene you have the voice like a diamond.
So excited for the new GoT song! All of your work is just impeccable but I've been looking forward to a new GoT one and here it is! As stunning as always! I agree it's too bad there's no verse for the Stranger because with your voice... that would have been so haunting.
***** I know there was no verse written for him, I just wish there was cause I know the verse could have been so stunning and haunting with your verse!
is beautiful
Ten seconds and this is my favorite channel already.
ITS SO PRETTY
The Father- Eddard
The Mother- Lyanna
The Warrior- Barristan
The Maid- Tysha
The Crone- The Ghost of High Heart
The Smith- Beric or Septon Meribald
The Stranger- Arya
Or for a darker take on the Seven
The Father- Tywin
The Mother Cersei
The Warrior- Gregor Clegane
The Maid- Shae
The Crone- Melisandre
The Smith- Brynden Rivers
The Stranger- Ramsay Bolton
I'm in love with your voice!
Beautiful song ❤
Wow. This is beautiful, as usual, Karliene! It's so sad that there's no verse for the Stranger, though, that could've been haunting.
***** Fair enough! It's gorgeous, anyway.
This is simply amazing!!! Also, that background is top notch!
Gilly gave him a puzzled look. “Did you only sing of six gods? Craster always told us you southrons had seven.”
“Seven,” he agreed, “but no one sings of the Stranger.” The Stranger’s face was the face of death. Even talking of him made Sam uncomfortable. “We should eat something. A bite or two.”

This song just makes me relive why i just love this channel so much. I love your music and you are such a big inspiration to me. (i actually love to listen to your music while writing or painting :D)
Thank you so much!
Best wishes
Jii
Mostly fantasy :D (trying to get book together in the future) and my paintings are often related to books i love (i once painted Jon's Direwolf...well at least tried to haha) :)))
Where do you get most of your inspiration from?
I feel so ashamed that i haven't found your songs until now. This song made me think of all the great moments i experienced reading the books and for that i thank you.
2021 anyone?
This Song is a Masterpiece
This made me extremely sleepy. I adore your voice and your work
Listening to this beautiful and impressing voice makes me happy and it doesn't matter what happened before - I am so relaxed and if I close my eyes I see all that beauty around me... Lady Karliene - thanks for that magic 🌺🧝♀️😘🧚♀️😘
The Stranger watches still as stone,
He lives in every widow's moan,
And laughs sitting his dark throne
When he comes for little children
Unmistakably another Karliene Reynolds Brilliant Song… Words are simply an Under-statement to the Beauty of this song
I Love it
Any chance of a Black Water Version or something
Dahhh ! So good !!!
Your songs are a light and joy to hear
The beauty in this song, it's timeless it's loving it's truthful it's the mantra of the warrior 🙏

The Smith: Gendry (?)
The Crone: Old Nan

wonderful song, stunning and beautiful.
Ahhh, so beautiful, as always. I am constantly awed by your seemingly endless talent.
This is so powerfully beautiful that when I listen to this, the Seven Gods become real.
Excuse me, I have a request. Can you please do a song for the Old Gods of the Forest and or the Drowned God? Thanks.
may the seven bless us
You and your voice are true treasures. Many Thanks for your work !!
Thank you so much for your inspirational music. You give us music moments far away from this strange world.
What a beautiful voice and a beautiful performance of this song!
Magnific. I wish you a huge success, you deserve it!
Beautiful as always Miss Reynolds!
Karliene how about a song of the only true god and the only one you miss XD, the god of many faces, also know by the people of westeros as "The Stranger", its a good song for this new season in Braavos. PS: im so glad of step into your channel by coincidense n_n.
Valar morghulis
that was amazing. you have a truly beautiful voice and i have never seen anyone else online think to do this song.
Another amazing song. :) And thank you for posting the lyrics. It makes it easier for us with a hearing dissorder to follow in the song. :)
What a beautiful piece. So gentle. Love it.
