The global showbiz scene is in shock again — but this time, not because of a scandal. Instead, it’s because of an unreleased love ballad believed to be written by Ed Sheeran, titled “Our Daughter,” which recently leaked online in the form of a lyric video.

And almost instantly, fans around the world were in tears.

The song, rumored to have been written during Ed’s early days of fatherhood, is a soft, soul-stirring ballad that tells the story of a deep love between two people — a love that becomes eternal through the birth of their daughter.

With touching lyrics like:
“She’s got your eyes when she cries / And my laugh when she runs through the grass”,
the song doesn’t just sound like a love letter — it feels like a page torn from a private diary and set to music. And now, that deeply personal moment is touching hearts everywhere.

Though Ed Sheeran and his team have yet to officially confirm the track’s authenticity, fans are in an emotional frenzy. “I’m not even a parent, but this song made me cry like a baby,” one viral comment read. Many are calling Our Daughter “the sweetest and saddest thing Ed has ever written,” though it remains unclear why it was never officially released.

Inside sources suggest Ed may have recorded the song during his wife Cherry Seaborn’s pregnancy, but chose to keep it private due to how personal it was.

The newly surfaced lyric video features soft animation, with floating lyrics over quiet, tender scenes: a wooden crib, golden sunsets, and two hands holding each other. Listeners aren’t just hearing it — they’re feeling it.

Fans are now calling for Ed to officially release Our Daughter, with some even suggesting it be used as a theme song for a family-focused film or campaign.

It’s a song no one expected, a quiet emotional storm — and perhaps the most touching moment in Ed Sheeran’s career that almost slipped by unnoticed.
