Lyrics
Petit enfant un jour est née
Mais saura-t'il pardonner
A ses parents qui l’ont laissés seul un jour perdu et abandonné
Il traine tard le soir mais personne ne lui dit qu’il doit rentrer
Ce n’est qu’un enfant mais seul il survit, doit se débrouiller
Mais dans la misère il n’a pas la chance d'être heureux
Il voit le temps qui passe et n’a plus la force de s’habiller
Il veut pleurer mais la nuit les anges lui disent d’oublier
Il doit se redonner l’envie et continuer d’avancer, yeah, yeah
Épuisé, fatigué
Petit enfant doit grandir et continuer d’avancer
Et continuer d’avancer
Petit enfant a bien grandi
Dans ce bidonville loin d’ici
Il prend de l’age s’endurcit mais son cœur lui n’a toujours pas muri
La tristesse le hante, il s’aperçoit de ce monde incompris
Condamné à souffrir sous le regard de ces?
Mais dans la misère il n’a pas la chance d'être heureux
Il voit le temps qui passe et n’a plus la force de s’habiller
Il veut pleurer mais la nuit les anges lui disent d’oublier
Il doit se redonner l’envie et continuer d’avancer, yeah, yeah
Épuisé, fatigué
Petit enfant doit grandir et continuer d’avancer
Petit enfant remuera ciel et terre pour trouver le bonheur
Il lève les yeux au ciel et doit s’y faire, il cachera ses peurs
Qu’en dira son père et toute les nuits il chante Papa ou t’es
Il voit le temps qui passe et n’a plus la force de s’habiller
Il veut pleurer mais la nuit les anges lui disent d’oublier
Il doit se redonner l’envie et continuer d’avancer, yeah, yeah
Épuisé, fatigué
Petit enfant doit grandir et continuer d’avancer
Lyrics translation
Small child one day was born
But will he forgive
To his parents who left him alone one day lost and abandoned
He hangs out late at night but no one tells him he has to go home
He is only a child but only he survives, must manage
But in misery he has no chance to be happy
He sees the passing time and no longer has the strength to dress
He wants to cry but at night the Angels tell him to forget
He has to give himself back and keep moving, yeah, yeah
Exhausted, tired
Small child must grow up and continue to move forward
And keep moving forward
Small child has grown well
In this slum far from here
He takes age hardens but his heart he still has not died
Sadness haunts him, he sees this misunderstood world
Condemned to suffer under the watch of these?
But in misery he has no chance to be happy
He sees the passing time and no longer has the strength to dress
He wants to cry but at night the Angels tell him to forget
He has to give himself back and keep moving, yeah, yeah
Exhausted, tired
Small child must grow up and continue to move forward
Little child will stir heaven and earth to find happiness
He raises his eyes to the sky and must do it, he will hide his fears
What will his father say and all the nights he sings dad or you're
He sees the passing time and no longer has the strength to dress
He wants to cry but at night the Angels tell him to forget
He has to give himself back and keep moving, yeah, yeah
Exhausted, tired
Small child must grow up and continue to move forward
