Lamentations is the debut studio album by Papua New Guinea-born Australian-based singer Ngaiire, released on 12 July 2013. The album name was derived from two sources of inspiration; Dido's Lament, written by English Baroque composer Henry Purcell and performed in his opera Dido and Aeneas, and the Biblical and poetic Book of Lamentations, mourning the destructive fall of Jerusalem.
