Hereof, what does the sun's getting real low mean?
Clearly it is reference to a hypnotic suggestion that allows black widow to calm down hulk. It starts with a phrase (in this case "sun getting low") and is triggered by the hand gestures specifically the touch of the inner wrist (that part has a ton of sensitivity and is not likely to be touched that way by an enemy)
Subsequently, question is, why does Thor keep saying the sun's going down? In Thor Ragnarok we have seen a couple of times when Thor keeps telling Banner "the sun is down, the sun is down" to calm him down and stop him from turning back to Hulk.
Beside this, why does Natasha say the sun's getting real low?
Sun's Getting Real Low…
This is actually what Natasha/Black Widow has done in the past to try and get Hulk to calm down and turn back into Bruce, which happened in Avengers: Age of Ultron.
What does Natasha say to Hulk to calm him down?
The lullaby was introduced in Avengers: Age of Ultron as a way of reverting the Hulk back into Bruce Banner after a successful mission. Natasha would slowly approach the Hulk and gently touch his hand, saying “the sun's getting real low.” This would calm Hulk down enough to change him back into Banner.
