The dedicatee is daughter of a famous Russian medic Sergey Botkin. In the first edition ( J.Zimmermann, Leipzig, 1902) , you can find a program to this work that Balakirev wrote:

Loving mother sings, calming down her son. The child falls asleep, but frightened by a terrible dream he awakes crying. Mother again sings her song and the child falls asleep, lulled by the wonderful dream: he seems golden moths, flying with the accompaniment of silver handbells.
