Now that you’re here, so fragile
I have never felt so small
You know, I am worried
I am so afraid to drop you
You are a bit like me, you’ll be too impatient
Not always very serious, but I think
We will be happy together
We have the same blood in our veins
And yet we look at each other, surprized
You don’t know yet that you love me
And that for you to be born I loved someone
You are a bit like her, you’ll be generous
Ready to do anything and I think
We will be happy the three of us
You know, I won’t be here as you grow up
And it won’t be me who teaches you
To read or play football
You will sometimes say “daddy”
You will be an adult when I get out
Just let me hold him for a while, just a little while
Here, take him gently, very gently.
