"Siren Song" (セイレーンの呼び声, Seirēn no Yobikoe?, lit. Siren's Call) is a theme in Final Fantasy XIV, composed and arranged by Masayoshi Soken. The track is an arrangement of "Nameless Theme" (ナナシ ノ テエマ, Nanashi no Teema?), the main theme of the Square Enix Nintendo DS horror game Nanashi no Game, originally composed and arranged by Masayoshi Soken under the pseudonym Louise Noma. "Siren Song" closely resembles the arrangement of the theme that plays in the credits of the sequel, Nanashi no Game: Me, using similar vocalisations and arranged in a jazzier manner.

Sirens are from Greek mythology. In the story of Odysseus, the Sirens are beautiful women who lure sailors with their voices.

He was curious as to what the Sirens sounded like, so he let himself be tied to the mast to ensure he could not fall victim to their voices.
