Little children, little sorrows,
Joy in house, the only guest.
Little children, little sorrows,
Could this joy forever last.
But the blissful days are fading
And the years of childhood too.
And those lovely little sorrows
Soon will never bother you.
Little children, little sorrows,
You can't keep them, no one can,
Cause the day comes, maybe tomorrow,
Both are big and grown up then.
Little children, little sorrows,
Joy in house, the only guest.
Little children, little sorrows,
Could this joy forever last.
But the blissful days are fading.
Looking back one day you'll do.
And you'll know those little sorrows
Were the greatest joy for you.
Little children, little sorrows,
Joy in house, the only guest.
