Take a Child
Words and music: Yves Duteil

1 Take a child by the hand
To take him towards tomorrow
To give him confidence in his step
Take a child for a king
Take a child in his arms
And for the first time
Dry your tears while choking with joy
Take a child in your arms.
2 Take a child by the heart
To relieve his misfortunes
Very gently without speaking, without modesty
Take a child on your heart
Take a child in your arms
But for the first time
Pour tears while stifling his joy
Hold a child close to you
3 Take a child by the hand
And sing him refrains
So that he falls asleep when he falls ©ée du jour
Take a child through love
Take a child as he comes
And console his sorrows
Live his life for years, then suddenly
Take a child by the hand
Looking at the end of the path
Take a child for your own
