Being hand in hand with a child
to lead him to the future,
To give him confidence in his way,
taking a child as a king.
Taking a child in your arms
and, for the first time,
dry your tears, without showing your joy
taking a child in your arms
Taking a child in your heart
to comfort its sorrows
very gently, without talking, shameless,
taking a child in your heart
Taking a child in your arms
and for the first time
shedding tears, without showing your joy
taking a child at your side
Being hand in hand with a child
And singing him lullabies
to let it sleep at the end of the day
Taking a child with love
taking a child as it comes
and comfort its griefs
Living your life for years, then suddenly
taking a child by the hand
Looking to the end of the way
Taking a child as your own.
