Leaves from the Vine

"Leaves from the Vine" is a song from the season two episode "Tales of Ba Sing Se" of the animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender. It is a traditional Fire Nation lullaby that is sung by Iroh as he mourns on his late son's birthday.

The song was performed by Iroh's voice actor, the late Mako Iwamatsu.

Lyrics
Leaves from the vine Falling so slow Like fragile, tiny shells Drifting in the foam

Little soldier boy Come marching home Brave soldier boy Comes marching home
